Have you ever purchased a new car? Even if you haven't, you know that all new cars aren't created equal. Some are smaller (like the Nissan Versa). Some are built to be rough and tough, withstanding rugged conditions (think Jeep). Some are built for comfort and elegance (like a Cadillac).
Just as no two models are alike, neither are photographers. Each one has different photography experiences that have molded them. And each one has a different level of skill and expertise. Would you have a wildlife photographer photograph your wedding? Probably not, and you are likely starting to see where I'm going with this.
In order to compare Mississippi Wedding Photographers or wedding photographers in any state, you would be doing yourself a great disservice if you ONLY compared their price tags.
Who is behind the lens? Who is pressing the shutter button? Do they have the level of experience and technical skill needed to evaluate the scene on the other end of the lens to know what settings to apply? What is included in their wedding packages?
There is a lot more to photography than knowing where the shutter button is. A great photographer has to understand the technical aspects of photography including (and these are just a few examples) rules of composition and how to use lighting and shadows to create beautiful portraits.
In addition to skills specific to wedding photography, your photographers need to have/know
- Artistic skills
- How to choose and set up a shooting location
- Technical photography skills
- Desktop editing and retouching skills (yes, some photographers use apps on their phones! - WE DON"T!)
- Patience and concentration
- Great attention to detail
- Strong networking skills
- Team working skills
- People Skills
- Time management skills
- Determination and commitment to see the job through
- and finally, but very important - PASSION for wedding photography
By now, you can see the importance of choosing carefully and wisely. You will spend a lot of money to make your wedding all that you want it to be. Don't trust your memories to just anyone.
We are well-rounded, highly experienced, and professionally trained photographers. Let's talk about why we're right for you. Call, text, or email us to schedule your no-obligation consultation.
