Questions to Ask When Booking a Photographer (part 2) | College Station Birth & Newborn Photographer
Here we go! Part 2 of “Questions to Ask When Booking a Photographer”! If you haven’t already, make sure to go check out my last post for part 1. These questions are good no matter what type of photographer you’re looking for (wedding, maternity, birth, newborn, family, etc!).
Do they respond quickly? I know we all have different standards, but you shouldn’t have to wait several days to get a response, unless they’ve posted or told you that they would be out of touch for a period of time.
Do they offer the products you’re looking for? This could be professional prints, canvases, albums, digital negatives, etc. And if you’re looking for something that they don’t normally offer, are they willing to consider offering it to you?
How long after your session will your proofs be available to view and order images + artwork? Some photographers take two weeks to process images and some take a month, so make sure to ask!
How does their ordering process work? Depending on the photographer, their ordering process might be fully online or they might meet with you in person to assist you in picking the perfect artwork for your home.
Do they fit in your price range? (The answer is almost always yes!) I don’t mean do they cost what you WANT them to. I mean, if you cut out fast food and Starbucks for a few months, could you afford them? Are they willing to work out a payment plan if you need it? Remember, good photography IS an investment! You’re looking for quality, connection, style, customer service, top of the line products that will last generations, and a photographer that will go out of their way to give you a fun, relaxing experience tailored just to you!
