Don't Just Say "I Do" to the Dress, Say "I Do" to Your Dream Photography Team
Planning your wedding? You've got the dress, the venue, the cake (hopefully you've at least tasted some!), but there's one more crucial decision that deserves some serious "I do or I don't" consideration: your photography and videography team.
These aren't just random vendors – they're your wedding day groupies. They'll be there for the happy tears, the nervous giggles, the epic dance moves (or lack thereof) – documenting every precious detail and emotion. That's why chemistry is just as important as skill.
Why Chemistry Matters More Than You Think:
Imagine feeling stiff and awkward all day because your photographers have the personality of a brick wall. Not exactly the recipe for stunning candids, right? A team you click with creates a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. When you're truly at ease, it shines through in every photo and video, capturing your genuine selves – the perfect memento for years to come.
Trust and Collaboration are also key. A connection with your photographer and videographer allows open communication. You can share your vision for the day, ask questions, and ensure they capture the moments and emotions that matter most.
But wait, there's more! Your wedding should be fun and stress-free. Working with a team you enjoy hanging out with will make the experience even more enjoyable. Picture laughing with your photographers in between shots – now that's a memory worth capturing!
How to Find Your Perfect Match:
Research & Recommendations: Dive deep into the world of NJ wedding photography and videography! Ask friends, family, and even other vendors for referrals.
Portfolio Powerhouse: Check out their websites (hint, hint: kelseyhartell.com and chriscraterfilms.com are great places to start!). See if their style aligns with your vision – do they capture emotions in a way that resonates with you?
Meet & Greet Mania: Schedule consultations with potential teams. Get to know their personalities, ask questions about their approach, and see how you interact.
Pre-Wedding Test Drive: Consider a pre-wedding shoot. This is a fantastic way to see how they capture your personality and if you feel comfortable with their style.
