Weddings come only once in a lifetime event that naturally captures our imagination and engages our fascination. Naturally, we desire our weddings to be as magical as they could ever be. Aiming for perfection in every tiny detail from the wedding dress to the location to the reception to follow, we want everything to be spot-on.
The big day itself could itself be Magic and Perfection personified. However, without the right people to capture all of its beauty, the event’s grandeur and charm could be lost forever.
Hence a splendid reason as to why to seek out the best wedding photography service for your big day. However, how does one select the best one out of the many out there?
Well, it would be helpful to remember the five P’s that follow to help with your decision.
Professionalism
This is a no-brainer. You want a professional photographer/team at your wedding with considerable experience and who exhibit professional conduct.
There are many ways to gauge the potential photographer’s professionalism. A diligent photographer would be on top of their game, gaining either new experiences, knowledge and/or certifications. One of the distinguishing marks of a professional wedding photographer is planning. Extensive planning taking the wedding location into the equation and discussing the kind of angles, types of photos and backgrounds, you’re hoping for.
Personality
The photographer’s personality is crucial too. Therefore, meeting up with them and getting to know the photographer or team is quite important.
There are some questions you could ask yourself after the meeting. Do they make you feel comfortable about the whole process? Do they exhibit enthusiasm and creativity while talking about the wedding shoot? Are they open to engaging your ideas?
Portfolio
Looking at their portfolio from weddings shot earlier would give you an idea of whether they are the photographers you would like to hire. Going through their work would not only give you a sense of their work’s quality but also open a window on their distinct creative styles and whether you feel at home with them.
Pricing
We all run on budgets and its kind of amazing how useful they turn out to be. However, as useful they are, they should not severely limit what we desire, especially on our big days.
Wedding Photography services provide several packages, being fully aware of such budget constraints.
Post-Production
One of the distinguishing marks between amateurs and professionals is post-production. While some edited works add to the beauty of the shot, some edits do feel as if the photographer had just applied too many Snapchat or Instagram filters, resulting in a completely unaesthetic product. Hence, looking at their portfolio gives you an idea of their post-production. Another way is to simply ask what their post-production entails, the kind of software that they use and the specifics that they focus on.
These 5 parameters may sound in many ways like common sense however it is hoped that they serve as a helpful checklist in selecting your wedding photographer.
The following list is of the top 10 wedding photographers in Kerala in our opinion. Now if you are ready to compare and select your wedding photographer, let us begin.
Out of the many wedding photography services in Kerala, the best services have been selected based on the five P’s discussed above. Also included are the special types of services they give and links to their social media accounts and contact information.
