DIY or Hire One - When to Use a Professional Photographer

By Nadine Cooper


The art of photography has changed significantly over the past few years, from SLR's to mobile phones who would have visualised only ten years back that the standard of photo from a basic mobile phone would excel some of the finest technology from just ten years ago?

Sure, there are the photographic enthusiasts out there that maintain their self loading cameras, just like there are the ones that swear by records and the popping sound being better than CD's. But photography has really been extended to a much greater audience, just look at the number of websites that push photos and pictures taken from all types of folks, from professional photographers through to rank amateurs armed only with their iPhone or similar.

Like anything nonetheless , the simpler the makers make technology and the simpler it would appear to be to take a picture, great photography is still an art. Capturing the essence of a second, understanding frame, depth, light, contrast is something only a trained pro can offer.

Hiring a trained professional photographer for your folks picnic is uncalled for, but when it comes to a really major event like a wedding, well then it's different. Leaving your once in an entire life photographs that will be passed down generations to a friend with an iPhone is ill advised, so too is presuming that armed with a decent electronic camera your uncle or best man can capture your special day like an expert photographer can.

Therefore consider the significance of a moment, sure it isn't always feasible to anticipate remarkable events, you do not always have sufficient time to prepare a pro paparazzo, like for your baby's first steps but for your wedding photographer make sure you get a reputable, experienced and proven pro, who knows how to take those live events and make them photographic memories.

There are literally hundreds of photographers offering their services promoting themselves as wedding photography consultants, but few have the experience, the aptitude, and the personality to trust with generational photographs for marriage is for life, but your snaps are still valued for generations to come.
