The importance of hiring a photographer on your wedding day
Why is the photographer a fundamental vendor to hire on your wedding day?
Importance of booking the photographer (amongst the urgent vendors to book). I have decided to talk about this topic together with an Italian wedding photographer, Federico Pannacci, because of 2 main reasons:
He is available worldwide and have seen different traditions and cultures
I strongly embrace his way of capturing the wedding moments which are candid, spontaneous, and natural
Federico is answering to the most FAQ about the photographer but is also sharing his vision and opinion on the importance of staying fit and what are the factors that makes a photographer, a real professional.

Sometimes couples decide based on the price. Is there something you would like to say about this? How important is choosing a photographer based on how many times he/she has been featured in international magazines?
Is it fundamental to choose a videographer based on the photographer? How much impact has a photographer on this selection?It is important that these 2 professionals work together in harmony. Also it is useful for the couple to exactly know what their priorities are. There are certain moment where the important vendor is the photographer (example the portrait session) and other where it is fundamental to have the videographer (the exchange of the vows).What is the best time to have the outdoor ceremony for guaranteed pictures?During summer (June, July and August) it is highly recommended to start the ceremony not before 5:00 pm for the lighting and for smooth and natural pictures. The light is fundamental for the photographer just like the shadows. To have the best portrait and delivery, I strongly discourage to have the ceremony before 5:00 pm, unless you are holding it in a shaded space.
IMPORTANT AND FUNDAMENTAL TIP: As a wedding planner, I strongly dissuade using a friend as the wedding photographer because this day is for your guests too and they have the right to enjoy your day with you and the other guests. Secondly, they probably have troubles bringing the right equipment with them and have professional pictures; thirdly they miss the most important shots of your day.You can decide to either read the article or watch the interview through the video below and if you need any additional information or need advise about the wedding planning process, leave your comment below or email me info@theweddingknot.it
