HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - TIP 4: PRODUCTS YOU NEED
4. PRODUCTS YOU
NEED
Problem: how to find
a wedding photographer that offers the products you need.
Solution: Meet
with photographers face to face and inspect the products they offer, looking for
heirloom quality albums and large prints that are only available from
professional photographers.
It’s great that
photographers offer lots of unique products, but it can get a little
overwhelming with so many options out there. On top of all of the cool unique things a photographer may
offer, there are a few key products that every bride should look for: albums, large
prints and digital negatives.
These three items are absolutely essential for preserving the memory of
one of the most important days in your family’s history. These are the first family heirlooms of
the new family you’re creating on your wedding day, so they should be heirloom
quality products that your family will be proud of for generations. Fortunately, professional photographers
have exclusive access to the finest quality products that are not available to
the general public. Any
photographer can provide digital negatives, but only professional photographers
can offer heirloom quality products worthy of your special day. Here’s what to look for in each
product:

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - TIP 5: WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A PERSONALITY
5. WHAT TO LOOK
FOR IN A PERSONALITY
Problem: how to
ensure your wedding photographer has a personality for success on your wedding
day.
Solution: Meet
with potential photographers face to face and assess their personality on key
characteristics detailed below.
You need to like
your wedding photographer! This
doesn’t mean you have to be their best friend, but you need to like the way
they handle themselves, how they interact with people, and their attitude
before you unleash them on your dearest friends and family. Your wedding vendors represent you on
your wedding day, and reflect your taste to your guests. The photographer is
one of the most visible vendors on your day and they’ll be spending a lot of
time with you and your guests, so you should care about the way they are
representing you. The photographer
is also one of the most pivotal vendors at your wedding, and if they get
flustered, lose their cool, or freak out, it could be disastrous.

BILLINGS MONTANA PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER - FASHION PORTRAIT
Model: Katie Schroeder
Wardrobe: Bottega Clothing, Janine Mix
The Billings Open Studio, is a very exciting new creative space in downtown Billings that I am involved with. We hosted an open house at the studio this weekend and it was a big success, with lots of photographers coming to check out the space and to learn from some of my favorite photographers and friends in Billings. The BOS will provide creative studio space and photography equipment on an hourly, daily and monthly basis. Features include a luxurious dressing room for models and private shooting areas, as well as office, conference room and display space. The BOS will host workshops, gallery exhibitions, film screenings, exclusive parties, and much more. Our hope is that it becomes a pillar for the creative community in Billings conveniently located in the heart of downtown.
Lighting Technique:
This photo is lit with two lights. The main light is a large octabox directly to Katie’s left on a few feet away, creating the Rembrandt lighting on her face and body. The light has to be close to the model so that the soft light will have a nice fall off, creating shadows even with soft light. Using a large modifier in close like this also creates nice big catchlights in the eyes. The second light is a beauty dish behind Katie camera left about three feet higher than her head for a hair and rim light that separates her from the background.

I am super awkward in front of the camera but that’s why it’s so much fun, because I’m constantly laughing at myself. If only you could see the outtakes!

Well Sarah looks
like a delicate beauty, with her grace, thoughtful pose and porcelain skin, but
she’s not really very delicate.
Actually, she’s a world-class skier! She’s also an awesome model that is very professional and a pleasure

bright future!

Haley brightened
up this frigid morning landscape in Laurel Montana. She makes the cold look good! We had a blast shooting model portraits along the side of this gravel road. Farmers and ranchers were up early too,
and were quite amused with our roadside studio set up! Thanks for the exciting shoot Haley!
