Before selecting a professional wedding photographer, know what you're looking to buy. These are the pictures taken at the wedding and reception that are assembled into an album for the bride and groom. Most photographers offer a wide selection of albums to hold the candids. These are sold only by professional photographers. With Capri or Leather Craftsman albums, the pictures are mounted to the pages, which are permanently bound in the album.
Some photographers skimp by using cheap, vinyl albums with plastic-covered pages.
Make sure to specify what you want. Portraits Pictures taken prior to the wedding day fall into this category. A bridal portrait is a formal portrait of the bride in her wedding gown. An engagement portrait is a more informal picture of you and your fianc e. This portrait is often used to announce your engagement in the local paper.
