The Wedding Vendors' Questions


So many couples end up feeling like their wedding day went by in a flash, leaving them wishing they could have soaked in more of the special moments. But with the magic of video technology, you can now capture every second discreetly, ensuring those memories last a lifetime. From Content Creation to Sizzle Reel, these services are your go-to for preserving your big day.

It's a good idea to book your photographer and videographer around the same time since they often work closely together. Your photographer will be by your side throughout the day, so it's important to feel comfortable with them. Building a relationship with your photographer can start with an engagement photo shoot to get to know each other and establish rapport. And don't be afraid to ask your photographer for recommendations on who to hire first. 


So, if you are going to splurge on anything for your wedding, you should splurge on the pictures...cause you don’t want to miss any moment of your wedding day! When to start shopping around for a photographer/videographer

Now let’s see those questions:

Top 13 Real Questions You Need to Ask:

Questions for the Photographer

1. What’s the photographer’s primary style - traditional posed shots and portraits or photojournalism? (Ask to see their work to know the real answer to this question)

2. What’s his or her philosophy about shooting weddings? (This will give you an idea of the person’s expertise and passion for his or her work, too.)

3. Does the photographer shoot in color, black & white or both?

4. Will the photographer you talk to be the one taking the pictures at your wedding? (This is crucial! Each photographer’s style is his or her own. This question applies to the videographer, also)

5. Is his or her open to a list of must-have photos (the people whom you definitely want shots of.)

6. Does the photographer develop his or her own film? How long does he or she keep the negatives? Can you buy your negatives from the photographer

7. Has the photographer done many weddings? (A photographer who doesn't specialize in weddings is a risk. You want someone who is experienced with how a wedding works so that key moments are not missed!)

Questions for the Videographer

1. What’s the videographer’s style- artsy, documentary, or direct (doing interviews with guests)? Does this vibe with what you want.

2. Has the videographer done many weddings; how many? What’s his or her approach when it comes to taping a wedding? (This clues you into experience and philosophy. You want someone who’s experienced with how a wedding works so that key moments are not missed.)

3. How many other weddings is the videographer doing on your wedding day or weekend? (Make sure there are no time constraints. This question applies to the photographer, too)

4. How obtrusive are the shooting style and the crew? How bright are the lights they use? (If shooting requires the room lights to be on all evening, much of the romance will be lost)

5. What kind, how many, and how new are the cameras, tapes, and microphones the videographer uses? (Can you get a DVD instead of a video?)

6. Has the videographer worked with your photographer before? How does he or she coordinate with a wedding photographer? (This is really important!)
