Choosing the right photographer
can be a difficult task, but a few
simple things can take the worry
out of the day.
Tim Jacobs, a Goderich area
photographer, says, "it is not
uncommon for plans to be made up
to a year in advance, if you want to
guarantee yourself of a date.
"Some appointments are -even
made further ahead than that, but
most people don't give an awful lot
of notice."
Jacobs says that he receives calls
at this time of year for June
weddings. -
"Sure they will get a
photographer, although it may not
be the photographer of their
choice," he sans.
Jacohs differs from other
photographers in the county. He -
also points out that different
photographers offer different levels
of service.
It is preferable for some of the
pictures to he taken at an outdoor
location.
"Natural backgrounds can make
for some interesting photography,"
he says.
If an outdoor location can't be
found, Jacobs will make every
attempt to find a suitable location
for the bride and groom to use.
"In just about every wedding,
something unique or unplanned
happens. Sometimes they are
photographic delights and
sometimes they're just a laugh."
Photographic services around
Huron County can range from
$2(1(1 and up, says Jacohs .
. "I would like to take more time
and take fewer photographs, to get
better quality photographs," he
said.
The difference in photo format
will have an effect on the price of a
package. For example, 35mm film
will provide good pictures at a 5x7
or 8x10 size, but professional
format will give better quality,
larger portraits. The professional
format has an increased price
because of processing costs.
Jacobs offers the following
guidelines to brides and grooms.
• Make sure you see some of the
photographers' work.
•Ask to see enlargements.
•If possible look at one or two of
the photographers' proof books.
"The proof is in the proof book,"
says Jacobs.
• Sign a contract, but also read the
contract over carefully, in terms of
copyright and copyright
infringement
•Make sure to have a budget in •
mind.
•Book in advance, as much as
possible.
• Shop around.
•Ask the photographer what format
he/she shoots in, either 35mm or
professional.
•A good photographer should be
flexible in the service provided.
• Remember; you get what you pay
for.
