Why You Shouldn’t Skimp on Your Wedding Photography

Your biggest day is finally here! Your makeup is flawless, your heart is overflowing, your fiancé is about to become your lifetime partner. The RSVPs have (mostly) been returned, the DJ is ready with lists of tunes to keep the party rocking, and your dress is the most perfect thing you could’ve imagined.

Having the perfect images to remember that once-in-a-lifetime day is priceless. Need to save a few bucks? We get it. But, just not on your wedding photography, okay? If you’re still not convinced, here are a few reasons why it matters a lot to hire the best wedding photographer in Arizona.

1. Your wedding is the real deal.

Your wedding day is not a practice event for amateurs to build their portfolio. This is your grandest day. Everything in the day only happens once, and then never again. It’s not a bad birthday party that you can toss and forget and try again next year. You have one heart that you’re giving to one other person on that one and only day of your entire life. We can’t imagine not having a Chandler Wedding Photographer to capture all those worth-remembering memories.

2. Hiccups are inevitable, but pros can handle it.

As perfectly planned as your day will be, life sometimes has its own way of making things more unexpectedly challenging. The weather may turn extreme, the flower girl will refuse to go down the aisle, your bouquet of flower might get wilted easily under the scorching sun and a whole lot more. This isn’t to scare you. These are actually lovely reminders that despite life’s hiccups, your love is bigger than any wedding day snafu. A dedicated, professional, and high-quality Scottsdale Wedding Videographer will adapt to the unexpected. They will work with the weather to create beautiful images despite clouds, wind, or snow. They will flow, bend, and work with your day, your guests, your unique circumstances—not the perfect day they had in mind.

3. Cheap trinkets are okay, but cheap photographer may not.

You’re a bargain hunter. That’s great, sister! Sometimes in life it’s smart to go for the discount or get the generic brand. Used books are great, generic tissues work just fine, and do you really need branded silverware? Probably not. Well, it’s time to know something, though. Generally, you get what you pay for. Discounts, freebies, and skimping are not for tattoos, and most importantly, not for your wedding photography.

4. Feeling at ease shows in every photo.

Your big day has both posed moments as well as action shots. You may be asked by your Phoenix Wedding Photographer for some group photos and posed shots, so you want to feel at ease for every click made. Only someone as professional as Saiaf Films shall be able to make you feel comfortable and natural, not stiff and awkward. This skill is something that comes from years of wedding photography experience and unparalleled photography skills.

5. It guarantees to answer your “what ifs.”

What if your Gilbert Wedding Photographer falls ill, there’s an emergency, their computer hard drive fails? The worst case scenario is you have no photos of your big day at all! Experienced and professional photographers Phoenix will always have backup plans—they have contacts to call upon, they will have plan B, C, D to Z. An amateur may not have a plan B and may not be able to afford to back up everything up, whereas a reputation is on the line for a professional.

6. Quality shows it all.

As the quality, consistency, and artistry of a photographer’s work increases, their pricing does as well. Remember, just because you see a handful of photos on a photographer’s site that you love, that doesn’t mean you will see that level of quality throughout a full wedding gallery. Every wedding photographer can probably show you a few stellar images. The difference in a higher priced Gilbert Wedding Photographer is that you will likely get many more photos that you will cherish from your wedding day than you will if you opt for a budget-photographer. There is a HUGE RANGE of skill and overall quality between low-end and higher-end photographers.

7. Comprehensive and Extensive Coverage

Remember that adage we mentioned, “You get what you pay for”? It very often applies to the Gilbert photography coverage offered for your wedding day. For example, you have eight hours of coverage from us and a second photographer built into your package. Many Gilber wedding photographers choose not to have a second photographer, or cover shorter periods of time. That isn’t necessarily a flaw, if you’re having a brief wedding day and don’t want coverage of the getting ready time or much of the reception, it can be nice that there are photographers who offer packages to suit. But if you DO want the full story of your day captured, you are in for bitter disappointment if you try to cram everything into four hours of coverage by one photographer. As you decide on your Gilbert photography package, try to be sure you’re not settling for less coverage than you actually want to receive.
