Choosing a photographer in Maryland, or photographers in Baltimore in particular can be a daunting challenge. The combination of, the digital age, the economy, and the lack of experience of newer photographers has left the potential client reeling.
What should a wedding photography prospect seek out.
1] experience... weddings are fast paced, stressful, and emotional. An experienced professional photographer has to be calm, cool and collected through all fazes of the day. he or she must be technically proficient in getting a quality image at a seconds notice, or, have the skill level needed to maneuver groups or individuals efficiently, yet caringly in very short bursts of time.
2] referrals...The best wedding photographers in Maryland can produce a strong bank of clients who are satisfied with their service, and just as important, a list of professional vendors who work weddings with that photographer, and do not hesitate to refer that photographer.
3] personality... You need to like your photographer; be comfortable with them both personally and professionally. That person will be with you through the heart of your day, and will be the one that lets you enjoy your wedding for the rest of your life.
4]Pricing... Every wedding photographer in Maryland has a different price structure. Photographers are mostly very small businesses, so the price is based on all of the criteria listed above, plus time, personal appraisal of ones own talent, and materials involved. It is a very subjective part of the clients planning, since wedding photography has to be done well, but within a budget guideline they set for themselves.
5] Flexibility... Good professional photographers will work with you as long as you are reasonable in your requests. Not just in designing the plan that fits your budget, also, with the shooting priorities you present. Tailor special requests to people, setting, and events that "really" are important to you. Don't just tear a shot sheet out of a bridal guide and hand it to a photographer.
Most good professional photographers honor what is presented to them. If you hand out a cookie cutter request list, the photographer may become ham strung in their ability to preserve many once in a lifetime moments, trying to fulfill the items on the sheet.www.google.com
