Why reviewing a complete wedding album, not just a portfolio, is so important!
Review full albums not a portfolio book because when choosing a wedding photographer portfolio books don’t cut it
Don’t look at portfolios, Look at actual wedding’s they shot!
When reviewing a photographer’s work many times they will show you samples of different weddings in a portfolio book this is not ideal as any novice can get one great shot out of 1000, then shoot 10 weddings a put together there 10 best shots in a book for you to see.
If you are looking for wedding photography doesn’t review their infant photography work. Just because a photography has one skill set accomplished doesn’t make them good at wedding photography
I recommend you see a designed album from a couple they have shot so you can get an idea what your wedding alum will look like when produced. This is very important as raw images in the digital age can look very differently designed. I personally like albums designed in the story book theme.
