However, hiring a right professional is really important. How can you find the right one? Here are few tips to do so. 1. Learn about the style of photographer- You can decide on the style of video and photography for any event you have organized. Do you want to emphasize on natural looks or you want more formal, artistically posed photos and videos? Decide on it beforehand. Then check out the style of professional you want to hire. You can do this by going through their portfolios or references of other clients. This analysis will also provide you with the insight of his/her professionalism and expertise. 2. Try to judge their personality- This is very important although you find it as weird thing to do. But, yes one must try to judge the personality of the photographer in order to make sure that you can get along with them comfortably. You must feel free to ask your doubts and give suggestions. While making photo album or edited video, they must show you the entire things and not just few sample photos or key parts of videos.

They are as follows: • Do they cover entire event by themselves or there will be support staff assisting you? • How many events they have covered in last few months? • Is it their full time profession or side business? • In how many days they deliver photo albums and videos? • For how many years they are in this profession. If you get satisfactory answers for these questions then go ahead with them. 4. Discuss about few essential things- Discuss whether they have proper business license and are insured.
