Hints For Saving Money On Wedding Photography

By Barron Shaw

Wedding photographs set the stage for long time memories and very few brides wish to take the cheap route where this is concerned. Although we are hesitant to offer advice to try to save money on your wedding photos, with professional wedding photography prices skyrocketing, not all brides can find the money for such services.

There are some answers here for the budget minded bride on how to save cash on your wedding pictures:

1. Find a member of the family or acquaintance who is a photographer. You are almost sure to find somebody who enjoys photography and has pretty good camera gear. See if you can find a relative who is a pretty good photographer, and request their assistance. You will find that folks are happy to assist with weddings, and you can conserve on wedding expenses by employing their help. If you do find someone, be sure you get together with them prior to the event talk about any specific shots that you want.

(2) Check with your local college or university for a photography student. They will love to have an opportunity to work an event and have something to put in their portfolio. Sure they are amateurs, but that means they will have a different view and will bring new creative ideas to give you some unique photos.

3.) You Can Provide Disposable Cameras to the Guests As Well. Put the disposable cameras on every table to let your invitees take pictures. You can choose the photo that you like the best after looking at photos from various angles. Place one person in charge of the development of the photos and camera gathering.

4.) If having a professional photographer is important to you, take a look around and get in touch with a lot of photographers. See what they have to offer after letting them know about your budget. You could be amazed with their reply. Limiting the amount of photos will also assist with your photography budget.
