OMG... for me the HARDEST part of planning a wedding is picking the photographer. I have looked at venue recommendations, recommendations on wedding sites, PS recommendations... and I have NO IDEA how to choose and don''t have time to meet a dozen photographers.
Obviously I can limit myself based on budget... but these photographer websites/ blogs all start to look the same! i try to look for clarity, composition, skin tones, details.... I have no idea what I am doing!!!
Some who have awesome reviews... i just don''t really LOVE the photos... others have awesome photos... with high price tags, or some negative comments about follow through AFTER the wedding.
Anyone else have photographer picking anxiety?
i have figured out we want someone who takes lots of photos (one guy said he would have less than 300 photos of the wedding... another guy said he would have over 1000!)
It seems important to have TWO people to cover everything.
We want someone who will help us put together an awesome book because this is what I will cherish 20 years from now.
We want cool engagement photos.
we want easy to navigate website for us, family, friends.
we want hi-res DVD so in the end we have all our own photos forever.
Am i missing something?
How do you sort through the websites and narrow it down? Help!!! (Thank goodness it is so much more fun picking the dress
