Wedding photographers, here are useful wedding planning apps every one of our clients should consider using to help make their special day run as smoothly as possible.

Wedding Photography Don’ts

One of the great wedding photography myths is that you need an album. While some guests will appreciate a beautiful coffee table book, most people would rather enjoy your photos online or on their mobile devices. That’s not to say that digital media is a replacement for albums, but it’s certainly how we consume content these days. If you are not set on getting an album from your photographer, be sure to inquire about pricing in advance so you know what exactly it will cost. Many packages don’t include albums unless you specifically request them before hand.

Do I Still Need an Album?

Many couples are opting to forgo wedding albums these days, mostly because it can be a hassle to figure out where to put them. You might have heard that album sales have been in decline as of late, but there are many other reasons couples opt not to buy wedding albums—and photography is still one of those services that’s worth paying for (if you find an artist you like). If you decide against buying an album at least make sure your photographer gives you lots of digital images. Don’t forget about trying to get a pre-wedding photo shoot with your fiancé either.
