only read if you’re ready to hear the hard truth 🥹🤍
i see time and time again how the biggest thing people regret is not picking the right wedding photographer
whether it was because they wanted to save a buck or because they weren’t picky enough, a lot of people don’t realize in the moment that you will never get this day back.
so can your cousin capture it for free? absolutely! but it’s important to understand what you’re risking when doing so.
second thing is when you are choosing a photographer, be pickkyyy!! find someone with a style you love who you vibe with well! they’re going to be with you all day and are the person you’re entrusting these photos you’ll look back on 20 years from now.
finally, whoever you choose, vet them well! make sure they’ve had plenty of experience and look at any reviews not on their website you can find because you can’t make up google or yelp reviews.
weddings are one of life’s most memorable occasions and everyone deserves photos that they love & can feel years after it’s passed. the photos you receive are only as good as the photographer you choose, so please don’t put a price on your memories & be picky because there’s definitely enough photographers out there for you to be 🤍
