If a wedding isn’t captured in photographs, did it really happen?
It’s not surprising that couples rank wedding photo’s as one of the highest priorities for their wedding day. Flowers wilt. The reception dinner gets cleared. Tuxedo’s get returned to the chagrin of the Bride who finally got her man to dress up! And for many, their wedding gown is never seen again except by the occasional moth in the closet.
I’m honored that you’re considering me to capture your wedding day. It’s a responsibility I do not take lightly. As such – I’ve taken my years of experience as a wedding photographer to compile this helpful guide to help you budget for the cost of wedding photography.
Questions I hope to answer are:
- How much should you spend on wedding photography?
- How can you navigate through all the photography choices?
- How do those choices fit into what In A Frame Photography offer?
- What if your budget falls short?
Great engagement portrait locations in Seattle
For some reason I thought Fall 2008 would be relatively slow. After all, the wedding season here in Seattle comes to a close in September. Apparently the stars weren’t aligned though – as I’ve been really busy finishing albums, meeting new couples who are tying the knot in 2009, and shooting some really fantastic engagement sessions.
As a result, my promises of answering common questions via my blog have taken somewhat of a back seat. So invoking work hours not seen since my college midterm days – I’m taking a deep breath, investing in caffeinated beverages, and we’ll see how many questions I can answer before collapsing.
