Okay, we get it. It is you big day and all the pre-wedding stress is left behind you. So what’s next.
So many questions must be flying across you mind which lying on the bed the following night, thinking about the big day ahead of you.
To any photographer, It takes sheer determination and skill to harness all the energy from the couples and their loved ones to create picturistic moments and tell stories through their creative photos.
Today I am going to talk about a few key elements, every photographer brings which are as important as a good photographer with a good camera. This is what you should look for while hiring a good photographer.
Before Wedding
I make sure that you feel comfortable and well informed. I will be in touch with you weeks before the wedding so I can understand every important detail about the people and event which will make it a memorable day for you. This gives me a chance to know you, understand you well and most importantly, make you comfortable with me. it is very important to bring good vibes and if we are dull, our couples will sense and react to that. If you have any questions during the planning process, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or call +61 426 246 142
During the Wedding
It is very important to keep in mind that there are many external factors we have to play with in order to create that perfect moment for you. Natural lights are the best lights to take those beautiful and immaculate portrait shots. The best natural like is approximately 20 minutes to an hour and a half before the sunset or after the sunrise. While it is still possible to take amazing shots during the day by finding the right location and using the right lighting technique, I always insist setting aside some time to take advantage of this beautiful natural light and get the best shots possible.
Plan to set aside time (20-30 min) before (first look) and after the ceremony to take shots of just the two of you. This does not include any travel to the location. For family and group shots, I would recommend 30-45 mins. A maximum of 10 groups are ideal, not more. You can take help from your family and friend to organize the groups for smooth running. If time permits go to some location or a bar where the bride and groom can kick back and enjoy the moment while we continue with some candid shots.
After the wedding
You will opt to get your photos in a few different ways depending on your choice.
We provide you photos through instant download which include a gallery that will be up for a minimum of one month with ability for the guest to download high resolution images and order print directly from the gallery.
While having access to the online gallery, on request we can also provide you digital copies for high resolution photographs in a USB drive to share with friends and family, but it is not instant download.
Keep an eye on out social media channel for a sneak peak, the week after the wedding. All the processed images will be ready and posted to your gallery within 4-6 weeks. You will receive an email with your password and instructions to access your gallery as soon as the gallery goes live. You will also have option to order prints directly through the site.
While you are waiting for your photos to be ready, i will email you wedding art style catalog with tips on how to style your photos in your home. When you order print from online gallery (if option provided), the print company will print and send photos directly to you with no involvement from Photovibes.
Your wedding should be fun and not stressful! Rest assured that you are in good hands. Mutual trust and communication will make sure it will be a relaxed and enjoyable experience for everyone.
