A meet up with a potential customer will typically involve the bride to be or the wedding planner ask a variety of questions regarding different aspects of the applicant. These serve as a vital tool to determine whether or not they are competent at what they do as far as Wedding Photography Atlanta Georgia. The following are some more questions one may want to consider asking.
Look a good reference from a close friend or family to get you started. These may be having previous experiences with photographers and may do well to recommend an excellent one that may know or have heard of. Try to get linked up with them and start with asking to see their album, this is easy as what bride does not like to drag out and show off that?
Ask how they performed on the day, what you need to know here was, were they punctual? Were they polite? Did the guests like them? Were they unobtrusive? Were they dressed appropriately; some photographers think it is OK to turn up to wedding dressed in T shirts and jeans?
How much did they charge and what did you get for that money? How fast did they take the formal family pictures (none of the guests like these so a good photographer should be able to whip through them at an average sized wedding in about 20-30 minutes)?
You should provide limitations on things he shouldn't photograph, such as the bride or groom undressed. If you're receiving digital negatives in the package, you'll need the photographer to grant you a copyright license to use the digital files for unlimited personal printing. The contract will have a "Failure to Perform" section. It should state that you are entitled to a full refund of all money paid, including the deposit, should the photographer not photograph your wedding.
Finally, make sure you and your spouse-to-be have a friendly relationship with the photographer. You should feel at ease with the photographer because he or she will be giving you direction and moving you into position for portraits.
What file format do you shoot? Every professional photographer will use the RAW setting, which gives the client the best possible results. This file format captures 4,096 levels of color per channel. The JPEG format, used in every point and shoot camera, captures 256 levels. That's a massive difference in the subtleties of color tone within an object.
Having done this you will still be faced with a huge list as it seems that everyone who has bought themselves a nice camera for Christmas is trying their hand at wedding photography. So how to cut the wheat from the chaff?
