How to hire a professional?

Sometimes it can be hard to find a pro, but here is what you need to hire a person who makes these moments eternal.

Ask for a portfolio

Make sure that you are fully aware of the photographer’s abilities. For this, you need to him/her for their portfolio and can also ask for their past client's contact number for more surety. People are nice and will advise you whether to go with the person or not based on their personal experiences.

Ask for your recommendations

People in your circle and or even colleagues may know someone who is master at this art of claims to be. Ask your loved ones, close friends and colleagues about a lead and also how was their experience with the photographer.

Let it out on social media

Use the help of social media to find a professional that that helps you not only take pictures but also gives your event something extra with the help of his/her camera. If someone has posted pictures that have caught your eye, you can text them directly and discuss your event with them and ask whether they are going to recommend the photographer or not.

Schedule a test run

If you are in search of a photographer and have doubts whether to hire the person or not. Then you need to ask him/her for a test run just to have an idea of their abilities and talent. A little family outing, a music festival in your office or any sports gala at your young one's school can help you in making out whether you are going to be comfortable with this photographer or not.

Discuss the fee

Discuss the total amount that the photographer is going to charge you for this special event. Make sure that you are comfortable paying it and also confirm whether the costs include the albums, prints, high resolutions images, single image with different sizes or not.

Some photographers charge per day, some charge per photo and some ask for per hour rates. Make sure you have figured out everything days before the wedding.
