A lot of wedding photographers are just on stand by and waiting for the couples to approach them and have them as their official wedding photographer. You can also check it online or go to their websites. Every wedding photographer has a different style of taking pictures, different wedding photography packages and various wedding photography services which are included in the packages.

You have to think of the budget first before you select a wedding photographer. The next thing you have to do is to look at the packages and find the one which not only fits your budget but will also provide you with all the wedding photography services you want.

What wedding photography services do photographers usually offer? Some photography packages just offer the basic service of photo coverage at the wedding and at the reception. Amazing how they only provide one photographer to cover the event but they could still give you an end product of an album of images from your special day. Some clients are also given the raw unedited shot of their wedding on a cd. The client also has the privilege to edit and print the pictures they like which are not in the photo album.

Some other wedding photography services include a pre-nuptial or engagement photo shoot. The schedule of the shoot will depend on how soon the photographer was booked but it must be weeks or months before the wedding. You could see these photos in some client’s invitations or in their save the date videos. This also serves as a dry-run of how things will pan out on the day of the wedding.

Through this the photographer could further get good angles and check what light suits them. The location of the wedding or the reception are also top preferences of some photographers to have this shoot so they could have a feel of how the light will reflect and to further see where it is nice to shoot and where to stay during the ceremony. This would make both the client and the photographer at ease with each other.

A photo slide show at the reception is another one of the many wedding photography services available. In order to provide entertainment during the reception and to let the bride and groom see how the ceremony turned out the photographer could also provide a slide show of the pictures taken during the ceremony. Not all photographers offer this service. Some wedding photographers also include this in their mid to high priced packages.

Make sure that the wedding photographer you will get is the one you’ll feel comfortable working with and who can provide you with quality pictures and all the services you are looking for.
