Locating A Wedding Photographer Santa Cruz

By Steven Scott


A very crucial part of planning a wedding day is selecting a professional to take the photographs. These images provide a visual record of your day and evening, and will last for years to come. There are a lot of important things for you to take into consideration when trying to locate a wedding photographer Santa Cruz and some careful thought is needed before you make a decision.

When you look for photographers there will be some places in your neighborhood where you can start your search. Many businesses that operate in the bridal and wedding industry will share their company details with each other. Bridal gown stores, men's tailors and florists will usually have contact details for a photographer that they know or who has been recommended by their customers.

You will find reputable businesses in your local area that can supply someone to take your pictures. It is always useful to ask your colleagues, family and friends to see if they may know of anyone or have any recommendations. Some photographic clubs can also provide one of their students but be aware that the picture quality may not be as good as the work of a professional.

An excellent place to look is online and there are many reputable companies to choose from. Many of the web pages will have examples of photographic work they have done in the past and this can help with ideas, and will show you what you can expect. The sites will also have contact details so that you can chat with them and discuss your requirements.

When you have located someone, you can contact them and make a convenient appointment to visit their premises or arrange a home visit. Most of the photographers will have a portfolio so that you can examine work they have done previously. Building a good friendly relationship with your photographer is a good idea as throughout your day you will spend long hours together.

When all of the arrangements have been made you need to think about how your photos are going be displayed once they are processed. Most photographers will have samples of albums that can be used to keep your pictures. With digital photography, your photos can also be transferred to DVD's and external hard drives, as well as the traditional hard copies that are more common.

When the pictures have been processed the photographer will contact you and arrange a date for you to view the proofs. They will have a large number of these to look through and it is a good idea to take them away and spend some time making your selections. When you have picked your favorite photos they will be prepared for collection or you can have them sent to you.

As well as an album and digital copies, other items are now often used to display images of your special day. Some companies can transfer your pictures to large canvas or have them etched into glassware and these make nice gifts for friends and family. You will usually be allowed you to keep your proof pictures and these are protected by copyright law.
