Choosing a Wedding Photographer


ATTENTION BRIDES:  PLEASE read this before choosing just anyone with a camera to shoot your wedding.  You only get one chance for your wedding photos...there are no do-overs.  We at PM Photography are experienced photographers that are trained and equipped to handle your once-in-a-lifetime wedding!!!

**The following was posted on Jessica Edwards Photography's Facebook page.  It is definitely worth sharing**:

"My biased 2 cents:

If you have to ask a photographer "Do you do weddings?" that's a HUGE sign that you should probably find someone else. 

It should be obvious if a photographer is experienced in wedding photography because if they are, they'll have beautiful wedding portraits prominently displayed on their website/facebook page. 

It's one thing to take a chance with a new/hobbyist photography for a portrait session. You can redo those if they don't turn out well. But PLEASE, for the love of God, don't take a chance with your once-in-a-lifetime-no-reshoot-possible wedding! If you're going to skimp on something, do it elsewhere. When it's all said and done your wedding pictures and video will be the 2 things that will help you remember the day. 

I'm not a wedding photographer, so I'm not saying this to try to get people to hire us. I'm saying it because it breaks my heart to hear "I hired someone because they were cheap. They weren't used to their camera and ALL the pictures turned out blurry". I was told this recently from the mother of one of my senior clients.

Learn from her mistake! Please and thank you."  - Jessica Edwards
