\"\"Mistake 1: Unrealistic expectations- only looking at the photographer’s Instagram<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. One of the biggest mistakes is to only look at a photographer’s Instagram page! Those are the set of photos very carefully selected and specifically designed to get reach on social media. You should go through the full set of photos because any photographer can pick out 20 good photos from a wedding, What matters ultimately is how well they are able to capture the wedding in its entirety. Are real moments captured?<\/li>\n
  2. When it comes to capturing the magic of your wedding day, avoiding common photography mistakes. One significant mistake often seen is when couples fall in love with the work of a photographer who’s beyond their budget, only to hire a different team and expect identical results. It’s essential to understand that each photography team has its unique style. Attempting to replicate another photographer’s aesthetic can lead to disappointment and a mismatch in expectations for the final output.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Mistake 2: Hiring separate photography teams<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. “NEVER HIRE 2 different teams (the bride side team and the groom side team): more expensive, more duplication, and more chaos. And they need their separate time to do couple shoot<\/li>\n
    2. A lot of cooks spoil the broth. Too many teams on the field will create chaos. Fewer photography teams, cleaner frames and more time spent with your family rather than balancing time between multiple teams.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Mistake 3: Not allocating enough time for photography<\/h2>\n
        \n
      1. The biggest mistake that couples make is not allocating enough time for photography. We know that your big day already has a lot of things going on but if you don’t schedule time for photos, you won’t get those key photos from the wedding – the couple shots, portraits, family photos, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Mistake 4: Ignoring the importance of right lighting<\/h2>\n
          \n
        1. “Ignoring the importance of lighting conditions for outdoor shoots is a big mistake a lot of couples make. Not considering the location’s background and surroundings for photo aesthetics is a recipe for disaster.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Mistake 5: Neglecting Meetings<\/span><\/h2>\n
            \n
          1. In addition to a photoshoot, you\u2019ll want to touch base with your photographer a few times, whether it\u2019s during an in-person meeting or a phone call. During these sessions, it is recommended to fill your photographer in on all of the details, such as your must-have shots, your favorite poses, and special moments you want documented. Besides discussing logistics, meeting up with your photographer is another way to connect. \u201cYour photographer should really get to know you and your partner as a couple to capture the wedding day authentically.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Mistake 6: Skipping a Pre-Wedding Session<\/span><\/h2>\n
              \n
            1. Waiting until the big day to meet your photographer is bound to cause issues. To make sure the day-of shoot unfolds seamlessly, schedule a trial run. This pre-wedding session is a great opportunity to learn more about the expert\u2019s style, verbal direction, and\u00a0personality. \u201cThis session is key to making the wedding day more comfortable and less awkward since both the photographer and couple will already have an idea of what works.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Mistake 7: Forgetting to Express Your Vision<\/span><\/h2>\n
                \n
              1. Yes, your photographer is the creative expert, but you also have a say in how the photos develop. Rather than leaving it up to the person behind the camera, make sure to communicate your vision. To demonstrate the vibe you\u2019re trying to create, we suggests sharing inspirational images with your photographer. \u201cSome of these inspirational images should be images of said photographer in terms of the \u2018feel\u2019 for the day\u201d. In regards to the location and background, inspiration for those can vary as your photographer may not have shot at your venue or location before.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
