You are probably just starting to get your feet wet in wedding planning. Have you started looking to hire a wedding photographer and\/or videographer? Let me write to you about our experience and the different wedding photographer tips you should know. So generally most people narrow down their vendors according to budget. That is what we did too, but even within our budget there is such a broad spectrum of services and you really need to know what you&#8217;re talking about.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12472\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12472\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12472\" alt=\"wedding photography packages\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12472\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12472\" alt=\"wedding photography packages\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/443605d1e7f2855ed6d464e406848798-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/124763852151528265\/\">Pinterest<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I contacted over a dozen photo and videographers. First things first, vendors who took days to return our message or email were immediately cut. If they are hard to contact before we have a contract then who knows what sort of service\u00a0they would provide after a contract was involved.\u00a0 From there I narrowed it down to those who fell within our budget. Here is where it stopped being so simple. We soon realized even if the prices we were quoted were the same and included the same photo and video \u2018package\u2019 there was a vast difference in quality and service. Naturally we started visiting vendors at the lower end of our budget, our thought was if we can get what we want spending the lowest dollar amount then there would be no need to go to the top of our budget. This is where we started really seeing the difference in quality. Out of the vendors that we saw, we quickly learned the lingo and what it all really meant.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12473\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12473\" style=\"width: 532px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-12473 \" alt=\"wedding photographer\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746.jpg\" width=\"532\" height=\"799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746.jpg 665w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746-533x800.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746-500x751.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 532px) 100vw, 532px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12473\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-12473 \" alt=\"wedding photographer\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746.jpg\" width=\"532\" height=\"799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746.jpg 665w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746-533x800.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/f6708200dca6c44084033ed0d8974746-500x751.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 532px) 100vw, 532px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/18507048443379357\/\">Pinterest<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Videography<\/strong> \u2013 is the process of capturing moving images on electronic media. It is also considered the more traditional approach. So anything from your uncle recording you during your speech to the hired professional is technically considered videography. Personally, what I found the most telling about a good videography is not so much how quickly they could name off the equipment they used but how well they recorded the ceremony. If there was sudden zooming in and out, heads being cut, poor lighting or focusing on the wrong object meant that we were not going to consider this videographer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12474\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12474\" style=\"width: 425px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12474\" alt=\"wedding photographer ideas\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e.jpg\" width=\"425\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12474\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12474\" alt=\"wedding photographer ideas\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e.jpg\" width=\"425\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/51f7114913ecd0b8d8a517ea9dea999e-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/91338698662125027\/\">Pinterest<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cinematography<\/strong> \u2013 is the creation of motion picture images.
