For most brides, they have had a vision of their wedding for some time. Some may have known what they wanted since childhood! A particular wedding dress, a certain type of cake, where the wedding will be, what the flowers will look like or what the band will be like. Sometimes it turns out exactly as visioned and sometimes it does not, but still a beautiful wedding none the less. Because no matter what, the bride and the groom are still in love and that is what makes the day beautiful and unforgettable.

But, 10 years later, the love and the photos are all that remain. And all to often, especially with today’s economy, brides will set no limit on the price of the dress and then shop for their photographer on craigslist! And then the heartache begins. No pictures delivered, bad pictures, missed shots or just a bunch of random shots. Please take the time to insure that the photographer that you choose matches the style that you want to capture your day and that you look at samples of their work. Look for consistency!

You do not have to break the bank, but you do get what you pay for.
