Timeless. That's what you want your wedding photography to be. You're not worried it will EVER go out of style, because it looks exactly the way you saw it through your very own eyes.

You want true-to-life colors and correct contrast and exposure. Your images are sharp, clean, and vibrant, and natural light is your jam. Your skin tones are exactly where they should be--not green, not gray, and not orange either--well...unless a bridesmaid had an unfortunate experience with a spray tan--at least it's true-to-life!

What this says about YOU: You are confident in your art. Trends may or may not threaten to sway you, but you shake it off and stand firm. You appreciate reality, and the vibrance of life. You see the best in people and believe the world around you is beautiful just as it is. You seek to capture the joy life brings and you strive to bring happiness to those around you.

You might be worried that the photographer you choose  may try to over-edit your photos. Here's how to make sure you get the right fit:

1. Read the Website.

First things first: Read the words on their website...do the things this person is saying jive with your goals? Are they talking about that same timelessness you seek, or are they just showing you some pretty pictures? Portfolio isn't everything. But of course, do look through their portfolio to see if you can picture yourself in their photographs and ask yourself whether you'll still love them  50 years from now. And third, make sure they have solid testimonials from other couples like you!

2. Have a  Chat.

If you've deemed them worthy based on their website, portfolio, and testimonials, set up a phone call, Zoom call, or in-person meeting. During the conversation,  ask yourself if  your personalities are a good fit, if you think the photographer will be able to guide you toward the aesthetic you're hoping for, and if you have reasons to book them for more than just their portfolio. They should ask about your concerns, so be honest with them. If your personalities don't match up well or you think they aren't in it to serve you and the things that are most important to you, don't move forward.  But if you think you could have a great time with them all day long, they can deliver what's important to you, and  that you'll get an excellent experience in addition to the style you're looking for, then by all means...get to booking!

3.  Note the Process.

Any photographer worth their salt should have an excellent process that serves you well, even before you book their services.  The BEST photographers will meet with you, find out what's important to you, and THEN give you pricing that reflects your desires in a custom proposal.  Below we've included resources about how to choose the right photographer.
