What to (actually) ask your Wedding Photographer! Four questions you need to know,

Get the complete list of questions to ask before hiring a wedding photographer so you feel confident in your investment and wedding-day experience and get the best possible wedding photos. This is the list without all the bullshit questions that you don't actually care about the answers to. This is the list that matters. Here is the good news: it's only four questions. I expect that you've looked through this photographer's work.

This isn't a job interview, even though you're hiring them, it's more like a compatibility test. They're a professional, but are they the professional who will match the vibes of your day? Find out in four questions!

Wedding Hair - How to ensure you love it (and my recommendation!)

The hairstyle you wear on your wedding day is a big deal. It’s the style that shows up in all the images - the professional ones and the ones your friend snaps with her phone.
