thirteen QUESTIONS TO ASK BEFORE HIRING A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

January 2023

The most important thing to consider when finding the best wedding photographer for you and your fiance is finding someone you connect with and enjoy being around since they will be by your side for most of your wedding day. The more comfortable you are with your wedding photographer, the more fun your wedding experience will be!

The second most important thing is to understand what your wedding photographer offers and what you can expect from them before, during, and after your wedding. Here are thirteen questions to ask your wedding photographer before hiring them (just a little something to learn about me, thirteen is my lucky number).

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT KENDRA

At home in nature. Ever-focused on beauty and the thrilling art of creation; found in the moments that leave me breathless and in awe. 

If there is one thing you can learning about me is how much I enjoy serving others. My heart is the happiest when I can put a smile on someone's face or help them feel comfortable during their session. After losing my grandfather this past year, I realized he was the person who showed me how to love others. He always shared the biggest smile and had the most welcoming heart towards everyone he met. I got to experience the joy he brought to this world with his love, and that is what I strive to be like as a wife, mother, and business owner.
