Let’s be clear about one thing!
When it comes to finding a wedding photographer for your special day, you don’t choose them because of their equipment. You choose them for their talent. So if you think an amateur photographer with pro gear will be able to give you the same results you expect from a professional, you are in for a disappointment.
Don’t Pick an Amateur for Your Wedding!
While it might be better for your budget if you choose an amateur to photograph your wedding, it might not be the best decision to make.
Your wedding is supposed to be one of the most special days of your life. Hiring someone who does not have years of experience in the field – just so you can save money – will only result in shoddy photos and bad service.
Now, this isn’t to say that all amateur photographers are alike. Many new wedding photographers are indeed quite talented and professional.
In truth, a photographer needs to have more than just great equipment if they want to capture exquisite wedding photos. They must have the experience necessary to know how to balance composition and lighting in between takes. They must also have the talent and an eye for beauty to back their work. Something which you will not get from an amateur!
Don’t Pick Uncle Bob!
This is why so many photographers caution against hiring relatives as well. Even if they have a great camera, they will still not know how to take classic wedding photographs.
And Don’t Even Think About Skipping Professional Photography Services!
Again, this is a special day, and you need mementos of the happiest moments of your life. With a professional at hand, they’ll know exactly which shots to take and how to make them look artistic.
