Narrow Down the Selection

TIP - Hone in on Your Candidates by Creating a Pros and Cons List Of Your Favorites

On a sheet of paper, make two columns. Write down those photographers who fit your requirements for budget and accessibility, using the aforementioned as a tool to narrow down your search.

Once you find a handful of candidates to choose from, pick up the phone and ask away! You can either schedule an interview over the phone (on the spot or when the photographer is free), or you can personally go to a consultation. These days, a lot of weddings take place out of state so a live one-on-one meeting might not be feasible.
