Booking Photographer

[beachprincess23]

How far in advance did you book your photog?

[B2B-2008]

I booked mine with just over a year to go.

I think if you've found a photographer you really really like, you might wanna book them as soon as you can. Some of the more popular dates and photogs book up fast! :thumbsup2

We booked ours ar about 11 months, we found someone we loved and wanted to make sure we got who we wanted as opposed to who was left.

It was over 18 months for us!

I was at about 5 months til the wedding when I booked. I was not sure who I was going to use, and it ended up being Randy. I had initally thought I would go with Disney's Photographers, but their packages did not include the rights to the images, and I was not going to order all of my prints from the photographer. If there is a photographer you specifically want, book as soon as possible. I didnt get my first choice as he was already booked, but I did wait until about 6 month to decide that I did not want to use Disney.

Katie,

I don't know who your first choice was, but your photos turned out AMAZING!!!!

Just make sure that your locations allow an outside photographer :)

I booked ours 11 months out. If you want to choose someone who is popular like Randy or Misty I would suggest booking asap.

[Lynn5700]

Book them ASAP..once you find somebody you love and know you want to use.

[DecemberBride]

My only advice is book as soon as you can! I waited and lost out on (in my opinion) the top three photographers!

I booked my photographer before I had my official date. I knew we were getting married in May on a Thursday and that mornings were easier to get ahold of than evenings. I felt pretty comfortable doing this in advance. The sooner you can get on the schedule even tentatively the better off you are.

I am sending in the deposit for my photographer this next week. But, I would definatly say do it as soon as you find someone you are excited to work with!!!

[BaBeeCee14]

I booked my photographer as soon as my date was confirmed with Disney. So I would say a little less than a year out? If you know which photographer you want, book them as soon as you can.

I was penciled in with DFTW at one year, and that is when I booked the photographer and videographer.

[Lindsay22]

I booked about 13 months out (before I had my date confirmed with Disney) I was going to wait but Randy said that someone had already contacted him about my date!!!

[Donald'sGirl]

I am at 17 months out and Randy is booked for us!:cool1:
