Tips & Advice From
Top Wedding Photographers

"One of the most important wedding vendor relationships is the one you have with your photographer. Trust is the key. Find a photographer that can back up his or her work a solid portfolio and referrals. Trust goes a long way to help calm your nerves and create a working relationship that will really shine in your wedding photographs."
- John Morris Photography
Las Vegas, NV Wedding Photographer

"When choosing your bridal party,choose people that like to have fun! It can make all the difference for that perfect group photo!"
- Back2Back Photography
Somerset, MA Wedding Photographer

"Wedding photography is an art; make sure you pick a photographer whose work you absolute love. It would give you confidence that you'll love your own wedding photos even more. Also make sure you feel at ease with your photographer. You and your photos will be gorgeous when you are relaxed and enjoy every moment of your big day:)"
- Salwa Photography
New York, NY Wedding Photographer

"We use a tungston flashlight on some of our after dark bridal formals. The advantages are a continuous light,so that you can see where the light will fall before you shoot the image ( unlike a hotshoe flash), a light that can be directed to just the spot you need and with the intensity you want. Plus the quality of light looks great. You can see the results on the image we use here on WeddingphotoUSA."
