When you’re picking your engagement photographer, you want to make sure you pick someone who you click with. You want to be able to be yourselves around them and feel comfortable in front of the camera. At the same time, you also want to make sure you love their work. 

Don’t be afraid to ask them for examples of their previous work, or even better, to see a full album from a past wedding. In order to get an idea of a photographer’s style, it is helpful to ask for examples of their previous work. Photo proofs from a past photo shoot or a full album from a past wedding can give you a good sense of their aesthetic sensibility and approach to portraiture. Is their work characterized by its use of color and light, as well as its ability to capture the essence of their subjects? Are their images ultra-stylish and highly polished? If you are looking for a photographer who can create stunning portraits with an unmistakable sense of style, you’ll need to see examples of their work to make the perfect choice.

You should also make sure you discuss what kind of style you’re looking for. Are you hoping for more posed and formal shots, or are you looking for someone who will capture more candid moments that show your personalities? Are you looking for a style that is both posed and candid?

When it comes to choosing a photographer, it’s important to narrow down your options and find someone whose style you connect with. Once you’ve found a few photographers you like, set up meetings to get a better sense of their personality and approach. This is also a good opportunity to ask questions about their process and get a feel for their level of experience. Ultimately, trust your gut and go with the photographer you feel most comfortable with. You’ll be working closely with them on your big day, so it’s important that you feel like you can communicate openly and build a rapport.
