That cheap photograpy
package may not be such a
deal after all. Ask the
photographyer the following:
- Can you pick the pictures that go into
- Do the photographer have a limit on the number of photos that will be shot?
- Are engagement portraits included?
- Is retouching included for all prints?
- Is there a limit on family portraits portraits?
The Package. Most photographers sell wedding photos in a package. It can cost more buying photos individually.
Make sure that the price of your photography is locked into the contract with the photographer..

[Leila’s Note: Get references from friends or relatives. My friend was shown albums of beautiful wedding photos only to be completely disappointed by her own photos and the video looked like it was shot by a 10-year old!]

This article explains the secrets to looking good in photos.
Have you noticed that celebrities down't stand full on in front of the camera? Turn slightly and rest your weight on one foot. If you are sitting, angle to one side or the other. JLo shows how it's done:
Lean slightly toward the camera -- When you ean toward the camera slightly, you give a natural look to the photo. Tilt your chin down a little to eliminate the double chin and view up your nose.
The Butt Trick
Ask them to squeeze their cheeks together. I have not met one person who doesn’t smile immediately.
Tone down the smile -- When you smile too big, you get a gummy smile and squinty eyes..
Never look directly at the lens – Always look slightly above.
Wwhite teeth - Get your teeth whitened ahead of time. It makes a difference.
Dress for photos - Stay away from: patterns, horizontal stripes, red, black, or white.

You may be able to get a good reference for a photographer from your reception site. Working with a wedding planner can save money because they have established relationships with photographers.

One way to cut costs it to limit the number of pictures instead of going with a cheap photographer. You could ask the photographer to work for only a couple of hours to get the really important shots and have friends and family give you the photos from their digital cameras.
