Wedding Photographers Are Not All the Same. Choosing the right wedding photographer can provide benefits for your wedding in many different ways. But how do you know which photographer to choose? For many wedding planners this is a difficult choice, but this can be overcome if you know certain things you need to look for. Of course there are a number of things you want to ask a photographer, but one of the main things that concerns many people are how their people management skills are.
Just because they are a wedding photographer, doesn't mean that every wedding photographer will be right for your wedding. There are certain qualities that every photographer will need for every different type of wedding. You have to remember that your wedding will be different than any other wedding, and for that reason you will need to make a choice on what type of a photographer will work for you. People management skills are very important for a photographer because there are many different types of personalities a photographer will have to deal with.
While you are busy exchanging vows, talking with guests, and eating cake, your photographer will be working the crowd taking all the shots that will be remembered for a life time. If you did a really good job at the interview, you more than likely aren't worried how your photographer is interacting with your family, friends, or guests. But, what if you really hadn't taken the time to find out if your wedding photographer could actually handle managing people or if they had any people skills at all?
Your wedding day is one event you really don't want to find out if a wedding photographer is having a problem handling people. This is something that can really be avoided by choosing a wedding photographer that really understands people. There are some things many people seem to forget, and that is a photographer is a person as well, and they have personalities and communication skills. What you will want to find out is if these personalities and communication skills are going to benefit you and your wedding, or are they going to come in conflict?
This is why it is so important to begin to choose your wedding photographer soon into your wedding plans, so you can visit with them, talk over your plans, and get to know them. These visits will give you great insight into how they approach a situation as well as working with people. On one of your visits you should bring a few friends along and let them interact with your wedding photographer just to get a feel for how the photographer handles a large group of people.
When initially making the call to find a photographer you will want to be straight forward when asking them how their people management skills are. You will want to know how they may handle a situation that may require someone to remain calm and collected. You will also want to know how they feel around people that are having a joyous time, and some of those people may be a little less in control than normal. The answers you will receive will allow you to either move forward with a booking or keep on searching.
What some people do is make the mistake of not interviewing the photographer about this issue and the result is they get someone that is a professional at what they do, but they have very little people skills. When a person lacks in the people skills department, this could potentially make other people unhappy or angry. This situation cannot bear its ugly head in any situation related to your wedding. Work with your photographer and find out what their strengths and weaknesses are. Do your homework and research their previous engagements as best you can.
Hiring a wedding photographer can be done the right way as well as the wrong way, and you do not want to get caught on the wrong side of the fence. Take your time with the interviewing process, do as much research as you can on any past work they have provided and make sure they are an AIPP member. If you can talk to someone about their professionalism and the way they handled a previous wedding, take the time and follow up because you will thank yourself in the end.
