I think it's worth it to get 2. They see things at a whole other angle.

Re: 1 or 2 Photographers?

How many people are you having at the wedding? If it's a smaller wedding then 1 should be enough...

1 or 2 Photographers?

We are having 2 and that was a priority for us. I wanted to make sure that FH had pics of him getting ready and I wanted them to not miss anything important.

1 or 2 Photographers?

I was able to do one photographer for 10 hours and one photographer for 6 hours...my photographer told me it was worth it to have 2 photographers while getting ready, during the ceremony and during the cocktail hour, but that 2 photographers was unnecessary during the reception (they said that the photographers would be standing on opposite sides of the dance floor shooting past eachother).

I might see if it's an option to have one photographer for the full day and one photographer for half of the day so you get full coverage before the wedding, during the ceremony and doing family photographs.

1 or 2 Photographers?

We have 2 photographers & an assistant & 2 videographers (cinematography)

I'm getting ready at my house & he at his parent's house... which are about 15 minutes away from each other, so in order to do 'getting ready' shots of both of us, we needed 2 photographers.

Not to mention the ceremony photos-different angles. I want a picture of me walking down the aisle and a picture of him seeing me for the first time.

Definitely two. I don't want just pictures of me getting ready, I want them with the guys too. Our photographers packages are automatically included with her and an assistant. We decided just one videographer was fine though.

1 or 2 Photographers?

We have two photographers because I wanted pictures of the guys getting ready. We only have one videographer. I'd have liked two so FH could could be videoed getting ready but we had to cut somewhere.

Re: 1 or 2 Photographers?

I was having the same dilemma. I choose 2- bc we are getting ready at two different spots so I want pics of both and also I want his family pics done early bc we r Doing a revael and out wedding is at 1130 followed immediately by cocktail hour.
Guess it really depends on how you want the day structured and timing too!

I had one photographer from Patken and then I have zap photos through my DJ. It was perfect and my photographer did not miss a picture!

I also had a large wedding and a large bridal party and it was never an issue to only have one professional photographer. The zap photo guy focused mainly on candid pictures but also got some amazing portraits as well
