Description of service

The wedding photographer was tasked to take photos of the wedding for 4 hours. During the 4 hours she was responsible for taking 250 pictures per hour. After the service was complete she agreed to supply us with full resolution digital images on a CD or DVD. She also gave us the "rights" to the pictures, so we didn't get charged for any prints after the wedding.


Review of Service

Excellent. The service was professional and she went beyond the call of duty. She met with us several times, free of charge, before the wedding and after to make sure she was meeting our expectations. The photos captured the moment and the mix of photos was incredible. No one was left out. She also surprised us by supplying 4x6 prints of every photo she had taken at the wedding.


Tips

Shop around and look at lots of samples. The cheapest photographer might not always be the best. Make sure you find out if you can have the rights to the photos after the wedding, or if you will have to pay for every print after the wedding. It's worth getting the digital images and the rights because personal photography printing is so cheap now.
