There are 3 things to consider when looking to hire a photographer for your wedding. I call it the 3 P's. First there is portfolio. You have to love their work! Second is their personality. You must feel comfortable with the photographer! And last but not least is their pricing. It must fit within your budget. But make sure you budget enough for photography-- it is what you will have left after the wedding has come and gone. If you really like a photographer and their work, yet they are a bit out of your price range, consider lowering something else like flowers or limo or bar budget. Think of your photo album and how important that is to you. Also, many photographers offer custom packages (as I do); there might be a way to lower the price by taking out an item or two from the package. If you find someone you like, communicate with them-- they might help meet you half way!
