There are different styles of capturing moments as well as different styles of editing. It is important that you determine what style you like, before inquiring with photographers. This will help ensure that you are connecting with the right person and will LOVE their work. While Pinterest can sometimes be overwhelming, it can also be helpful for things like this. We suggest creating a Pinterest board for your wedding. Save various photos that match your theme, color scheme, and venue type and see if there is a pattern. Are they mostly light and bright photos, or do they have more of a moody vibe? Are the portraits classic and posed, or more candid and documentary style?
Now, you have a Pinterest board full of images – what’s next? Look through the ones you’ve saved and see which style of photography stands out the most. Maybe it will be easy; perhaps you coincidently only saved photos of one style!

P.S. Can you see the difference in Kate Holt’s photography style (top) vs Rebecca Rizzo’s (bottom)? Both pictures are taken in the same spot, facing the same direction!
