How to choose wedding photos

1. When choosing wedding photos, do not bring your elders with you. No matter which parent you are, you will feel that the photos of your daughter/son are 100% good. This makes your screening work more difficult.

2. Don’t hesitate to delete videos. Especially movies that I didn’t feel good about at first. Don’t worry about not being enough to be included in the list, the photos taken in the studio are enough for you to “cruelly” screen three times.

3. When choosing wedding photos, don’t be interfered by the photo studio staff, just choose what you think is good. Often when you delete it to a certain extent, the photo studio staff will praise you for how perfect your photos are and tempt you with various offers. For example, upgrading a certain photo album or upgrading a certain blockbuster, etc. You know, those so-called upgrade items are far less valuable than they portray. Therefore, it is only recommended to take the negatives you are interested in, and you can completely fold the upgraded content into photos.

4. When you don’t know what to choose, ask the photography assistant or post-production designer to help you provide some suggestions. They usually know which pose and which color will look good in the photo design.

5. When there are about 50 photos left, decisively select the enlarged photos, quartet crystal photos, single photos, 36-inch posters, etc. If you finish selecting and then select these photos, you find that the PP you left does not look good as a group of four crystals. At this time, the photographer or others will say that you deleted all the good ones. Then let you choose from the selection. In that case, you still don’t know which one to delete, and you’ll be in a dilemma.

6. Nowadays, most photo studios will recommend to you a collection of three 1.4*1.6 digital photos to hang on your bedside, but it is recommended that you do not use the traditional 40-inch photo. The photographer may tell you that you can exchange the 40-inch one for this one, and you only need to pay the price difference. The final calculated price difference was 1,700 or more. Don't be fooled! Not that much. All you need to do is look embarrassed, think it's expensive, and don't want to pay extra for it, and the photographer will quietly tell you that you can get a discount. Next, it depends on your talking skills. After reading his design draft, even if you really like it, don’t show it on your face, otherwise it will be difficult to negotiate the price.

7. Flexible response to wedding dresses Follow [the staff's sales skills when selecting films to keep your thinking clear. Some photo studios will tell you that the more negatives you buy, the cheaper the digital compilation of three photos will be. If he deletes less than 50 pictures, he will become anxious and will attract you by getting you into the book at the lowest price. Generally, the minimum registration is 120, and the lowest price he quoted you is more than 80, which sounds quite attractive. But calculating the total price, you may need to pay about 4,000 more. Don't be impulsive! Impulse is the devil~! Let him give you a few more discounts until you feel that it can't be lower and is acceptable. Some photo studio sales staff will use the newcomer as a breakthrough point, for example: settling accounts with the husband about whether it is worth spending a lot of money to buy the film. For example: "Both parties live for 40 years, which is 14,600 days. If the photo costs 10,000 yuan, it is 1.46 yuan per day. The husband only pays 1.46 yuan per day, and the lady gets beautiful memories and eternal moments of happiness. Is it worth it?" Generally speaking Everyone will be embarrassed, and the money in the wallet may be taken away. Keep your mind clear and clear-headed when choosing wedding photos. Don’t let the salesperson lead you by the nose.

8. Generally speaking, the negatives can be given to you one week after the wedding photo selection is completed. Post-production can also be completed in about 20 days. Ask him to rush it so that if there are any problems, you can redo or modify it in time. If you are not in a hurry, you will have to wait for nearly a month. Wedding invitations with photos can be finished in 10 days.

9. If you still feel dissatisfied with the selected wedding photos, please mark them on the list according to the number and let them modify it: such as changing the color of the teeth to natural white, removing moles, or Fog, change the background, refuse what kind of background you want, etc. Make everything clearly listed on the order they give you.

10. The full amount cannot be paid. Otherwise, if there is any problem with the finished product, they will refuse to redo or repair it for various reasons. You have to save some at hand~

11. When the selected wedding photos are to be included in the album, there should be at least 3 photos of the same series or background in one page. So don't listen to their nonsense. If you don't like it, you don't need to keep more, just 3 per edition.
