I'm meeting with my first photographer this weekend and am trying to come up with a comprehensive list of questions to ask. Do any of you have a list of questions you use when 'interviewing' a photographer?

Questions to ask photographers
-How many photographers will you be getting? -How long will they be there for? -What is the overtime rate for each photographer per hour? -Is an engagement session included in the price? -How many albums are included in the package?

Re: Questions to ask photographers
1- Can we see your portfolio? 2- How long have you been in business? 3- How soon can we see our photos? High resolution? 4- What's included? Wedding album, parent albums (are they different), thank-you's 5- What is your general style? 6- Do you shoot in B&W or Color? 7- Are you the actual photographer? 8- Is there an assistant? What is there experience? 9- What camera do you use? What equipment do you bring? 10- Have you worked at our venue? Can we see photos? Church? 11- Can we give you a list of expected photos? 12- What attire does photographer & assist wear? 13- Do we get copyrights to photos? 14- When do you take breaks? Do you want a meal or just eat at the Cocktail Hour. 15- Start times and end times. 16- Are you insured?
Here are some I asked. I probably asked a few more. This will be a good start.

Questions to ask photographers
All great questions--thank you! We ended up asking all of them, plus about 20 more, lol. And, when we were happy with all the answers we got, we booked our photographer! Yay! :)
