10 Keys To Pick A Top Photographer

Experience Level – Has this person photographed other weddings? Does he/she do this for a living or for fun? In this industry, photographers come and go daily. A brand new one may be pretty good, and everyone has to start somewhere, but do you want to trust your once in a lifetime event to a newcomer? At Babylon Productions, we have over 10 years of experience in the Toronto area doing weddings the way you like it.

Photographic Style – Are the images that you are shown, what you would like to see? Can you picture yourself photographed the same way? Is there a satisfactory mix in different styles? There are “buzz” words flying about everywhere about photojournalism, formal, classic contemporary, and so on. All colorful adjectives aside; do YOU like it? At Babylon Productions, we have a Photographic style that is exceptional in the Toronto area doing weddings the way you like it.

Truth in Advertising – Is this the photographer that will be photographing your wedding or will they send in whom ever is available. Don’t be shocked, this happens more often than you can imagine. Be certain that you know which photographer is going to be there and see HIS/HER work and meet them. At Babylon Productions, we tell you exactly what you are getting so you know that your wedding in the Toronto area is done right the first time.

Personality – Is the photographer that you meet someone that you can get along with? Is the “chemistry” there? People have walked away from hairstylists and tailors for less. This is a person that you are going to spend most of the day with; the most important day. Could you handle it? Does he or she seem service oriented? At Babylon Productions, our personal touches are important and cater to your every need in the Toronto area doing weddings the way you like it.

Appearance – Ask the photographer how he/she intends to dress. The last thing that you want is a conflict at the wedding about the photographer wearing a sweatshirt and jeans with sneakers at your favorite country club. Is this person well groomed? At Babylon Productions, we understand that appearance is important, so we try to look as professional for your wedding in Toronto.

Price Range – Although, the last thing you want to do is shop by price, is this person within your budget? If not, is he or she worth the difference? A lot of times we tend to surpass our budget constraints to get what we really want.

If you see and like it, you’ll find a way. In any case, make sure you understand what everything costs, including reorders. Delivery – How long does it take to get your proofs back, your finished album, your bridal portrait, etc.? Go ahead and ask. Some photographers take months to deliver your proofs. Be sure of how long things take to turn around. At Babylon Productions, we offer you a price within your budget; have a look at our website, we do weddings right in the Toronto area and we do weddings the way you like it.
