Choosing the right photographer is one of the most important steps in planning your wedding. Here are our top five tips in choosing a great Wedding Photographer:

1. Find a photographer through recommendations from friends, searching the internet, Bridal Expos and Bridal magazines.  You may have an idea of what type of photographs you would like on your special day so try and select a photographer who has a similar style to what you're after.

2. Select a photographer and ask for a consultation to view their work and discuss what ideas you may have in relation to photography. This meeting will give you an idea of their ability to meet your expectations, their style and their ability to tell a creative love story through images.

3. Ask good questions, like how long have they been shooting, how much experience they've had shooting weddings and what other projects they've been involved with. Also ask if they work alone or have an assistant.

4. Know exactly what you're getting for what you're paying and know how much will it cost. Make sure you get this in writing, either in a brochure or an email. Verbal agreements don't give you much to stand on if something goes pear shaped.

5. Ask if they offer Pre-Wedding Shoots. Pre-Wedding or Engagement Shoots are often a good way to get to know the photographer and to help the bride and groom feel comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.
