EA: What are the most important
aspects to look for when choosing a
photographer for your wedding?
EA: What advice would you give
the Bridal couple with regards to
photography and their wedding?
KA: It’s really important that the
couple feels comfortable around
me, that way they can show me who
they really are which reflects in the
images. It’s also important to know
the photographers work, their style
of shooting and make sure that it is
in line with what they are looking for!
Overly posed, flashed portraits is not
my thing for example, so I would hope
not to attract couples looking for that
style. Also, a photographer who has
shot in many different situations,
locations and light especially as that
is constantly changing throughout
your wedding. Therefore, having a
photographer who can manoeuvre
through all the intricate lighting
scenarios is ideal.
My favourite part of the day is the
couple shoot – just the Bride and the
Groom and some special moments
together… For this, I love to shoot
within the golden hour, the last light
before the sunset so that is really
important to factor into the timeline.
Getting ready in a nice room with
lots of natural light helps, especially
if it’s kept tidy! But most importantly
and what shows up the most in the
pictures is how much fun you are
having! So on the day, even if things
don’t go exactly according to plan, if
there are happy smiles and emotion
– the photography will be a success!
