Do I Need a Second Photographer for My Wedding?
So, should you pay for a second shooter at your wedding? Having a second San Francisco Vietnamese Wedding Photographer is becoming more and more popular among bridal couples nowadays and arer now also often included in photographers’ pricing packages. Whether you should decide to have a second photographer depends on a number of things.
The benefits of having a second shooter are extremely useful for…
Getting Ready Photos
With the bride and bridesmaids all getting ready together, these can make for some fun and lovely photos – think of shots of the bridesmaids helping the bride put her dress on and drinking wine together.
But what about the groom? If they are getting ready somewhere else, then this is where a second shooter is useful. You have your main Los Angeles Vietnamese Wedding Photographer capturing the bride getting ready, while the second shooter with the groom, best man and the rest of the guys.
Guest Shots
If you have a very large number of guests at your wedding you may benefit from a second shooter that allows you to capture more of your guests and the emotion of the day. This is not to say that a single San Jose Vietnamese Wedding Videographer cannot do this nicely, but a second shooter allows your main photographer to focus on the bride and groom during the ceremony, allowing the second shooter to focus on the guests only. The more guests you have, the trickier it is to capture those fun moments, emotions and joy on your guests’ faces while also doing formal shots, for example.
The Venue
Be it for the ceremony or the reception, larger venues that offer a few different vantage points allow for a range of different shots. Requesting for a second shooter from your San Diego Chinese Wedding Photographer allows you to take advantage of your venue by being able to capture the same moment from different angles. This could be shots of the bride and groom walking down the aisle with shots from a photographer on the ground level and a second shooter capturing the moment from a balcony above, for instance.
Overall, it comes down to whether you need an additional San Jose Chinese Wedding Photographer, and whether you have the budget for it.
