By Elsa Noel


Your wedding photos will surely last a lifetime and this explains why you need a good wedding photographer to be in charge of your big day. Choosing a good wedding photographer is however not very easy as most people tend to think especially if it is destination wedding. The biggest dilemma for most couples is whether to hire a domestic cameraman in the destination or hire someone from home and travel with him. Below are tips to help you find a good destination wedding photographer.

Whether you decide to hire a local cameraman or travel with one, it is always imperative to get referrals and recommendations. Talk to couples who have celebrated their weddings in the recent past and ask them for recommendations. You can also attend local bridal shows and interact with the photographers in attendance. This is always a good way of knowing the photographers personality and style.

Taking wedding pictures is usually not as easy as many people would tend to think. It is an art that requires a lot of experience. It is only through experience that the cameraman will be able to take quality photos in diverse weather conditions. A novice may not know how to take pictures in say a place that is too bright or in a poorly lit room.

It would also be important to look for a nuptial photographer who has a valid license of operation. In most places, photographers are not required to acquire license of operation before they can roll out their services to the public. However, the fact that a particular cameraman has taken the initiative to acquire a license of operation is always indicative of his commitment to providing top notch services to his clients.

Service charge is another important factor that you cannot afford to ignore. This will of course vary from one cameraman to the other. As such, it is always important that you comparison shop before making a choice. This does not however mean that you should be on the lookout for the cheapest photographers around. If anything, you should stay away from photographers who are charging suspiciously low charges.

The demand for good nuptial photographers is usually very high especially during peak seasons like towards the end of the year. Because of this, it is always advisable that you book all your vendors including cameraman in advance. This should be done at least six months prior to the D day.

Once you identify a good cameraman, it is also important to insist on written contracts. This will help safeguard you from unscrupulous photographers who do not keep their word. Any cameraman who claims that this is a waste of time must be avoided by all means possible.

Remember that your wedding photos are the only treasures that you will hold on to after your big day. As such, you want them to be of great quality. You can give yourself this assurance by choosing a top notch cameraman as well.
