3 Reasons Wedding Photography is the Best Investment you Can Make On Your Wedding Day
3 Reasons Wedding Photography is the Best Investment you Can Make On Your Wedding Day
1. Memories Fade
The reality of your wedding day is that it’s only one day. this might make you think, “Why Should I spend thousands of dollars on something that’s only one day?” Because, it’s essential to have a photographer there who can capture the memories so you can re-live them. When the day is over, the details will be all but forgotten, but the photos will live on.
Additionally, there is so much more that goes into hiring a professional photographer than the photos you get. As photographers, we also recommend a schedule that aligns with your vision of your day, keep you calm and focused on what matters, and generally just be someone fun to hang out with – we do spend a lot of time together on your wedding day after all.

2. You only do this once
Aside from sporting events, weddings are one of the only events where you don’t get a re-do. There’s no setting up the shot again. That “first kiss” isn’t the first kiss if it’s staged. If these photos are going to live on the walls of your home for years, your best best is to hire a professional. Chances are you’re spending a lot of money on your wedding day – more than you’ll spend on any one single day in your entire life. This warrants hiring a photographer who has been there, who knows the ins & outs of the wedding industry, and can anticipate things before they happen.
3. Pros are pros for a reason
You can hire a friend with a DSLR or someone who has a popular Instagram following to be your wedding photographer, but chances are you’re making a mistake. We’ve seen it happen too many times. A bride or groom thinking they can save money by hiring their cousin or best friend who “takes good pictures”. It could work out, but it probably won’t.
It’s great to look for deals on your wedding day, and do things DIY, but photography is not one of them. There is so much that goes into one single shot, let alone a whole day, you want a pro on your side.
There is a reason why us pros in the industry use such expensive equipment (one of many lenses we use can cost upto $3000 (and thats just for one of many that are required to capture your day the way we vision... let alone spare camera bodies, cards etc etc .. if one piece of equipment fails (and sometimes they do! It’s always peace of mind that your day can be captures flawlessly :)
We would love to hear from you regarding your Wedding or events needs! :)

When Should You Book Your Wedding Photographer?
When Should You Book Your Wedding Photographer?
So you’ve gotten engaged?! Congrats! This is such an exciting moment in your life leading up to the start of your new journey with your significant other… But it would be unfair if I didn’t mention that it is also stressful. I wish I could sugar coat that for ya but even if you hire a Wedding Planner, you have a lot to do!
Today, we are going to focus on booking your Photographer/Videographer for your wedding. Sure, you could easily go find a bridal magazine or hunt through Pinterest for a timeline of when you should be doing what… but we searched sources across all mediums and found a trend of inconsistent timelines. So, instead of comparing all of these wedding timelines yourself we did it for you (you’re welcome). 😉
We compared 25 different wedding planning timelines. Sources include everything from Lauren Conrad, The Knot, Martha Stewart & everything in between. Collectively, the range was anywhere from 6 to 13 months… which is a pretty big time gap. So we found the average to give you a solid result of:
You should be booking your Photographer/Videographer at least 9 months before your wedding!
And here is why we agree: By this time, you’ll have already picked your venue, a theme/color scheme, an idea of a guest list, and a basic timeline of your wedding day. This is all useful to your Photographer because…
Once the venue(s) is set your Photographer can look up the locations to see where they can get the best photos of you, your significant other & loved onesYou will know who you will really want photos with, out of town family or friends, etc. (Add to your shot list!)The general timeline is useful so whether you are having a mix of traditions or unique wedding events, you can be sure your Photographer won’t miss a thing and capture all of your special moments
Note: Of course if you’re ahead of the game, booking earlier doesn’t hurt! It ensures your booking date, engagement sessions and more.
We service Waikato, Auckland, Bay of plenty and the greater areas within New Zealand and abroad.
