Sanctuary Cove Wedding Photography
Finding the right wedding photograper can be daunting. There are so many out there, especially on the Gold Coast. Few of them, however, specialise in a particular area like Sanctuary Cove.
LOCATION:
It's always good to find a photographer who knows the area you are looking at holding your wedding in. If your wedding photographer is in your wedding location you are on the right step to start with. Although I look after clients all over the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Cairns, Byron Bay, Sydney and Hobart; I make sure that I am very familiar with the area before the day of the wedding. It's beautiful to capture magic moments of wedding everywhere but you need to know where you are and the best shots for that destination.
TIME:
The next thing to think about is whether they are willing to dedicate a good amount of time to you and not run off as soon as their hours are up. Find out if the photographer will charge more for going over time and how much it might end up costing you. See which packages suits you and hours that they include. You might only want the ceremony photographed, in which case you will only need a couple of hours but if you want your whole day photographed then you will need much more time. The average time of wedding photography packages in Sanctuary Cove and elsewhere are around 4 hours and six hours, depending on the package.
PAYMENT METHODS
Is you photographer willing to allow you to make instalments to your overall price? You may not have the funds up front to pay for it all at once and you will need the option of making payments throughout the weeks leading up to your wedding day.
WHAT IS THEIR STYLE?
We love to capture spontaneous moments and turn them into stunning images. Our style is elegant and full of life and joy. Some brides-to-be prefer to have a lot of posed shots. It's good to have an idea of what style of photographs you would like beforehand so that you can communicate this to photographers that you are calling. You will get a feel of what each photographer's style is and how they approach their whole method of photographing on the day.
WHERE DO YOU WANT THE PHOTOS TAKEN?
You might want the photographer to take some shots while you are getting ready. This is a good time to capture how everyone was feeling before the big moment. It is a beautiful time to remember through photos. The ceremony might be indoors like the Hyatt, Sanctuary Cove, with artificial light or outdoors in Sanctuary Cove somewhere with natural light. A good photographer will know how to take the right pictures in each light and size situation. Often there is a bridal party photo session at a location near the ceremony. This is the perfect time to take the more formal shots when all the bridal party are together. Wedding Reception shots are perfect for spontaneous, party shots.
