This made me chuckle. While reading a Facebook group I came across this post. Names are removed for privacy, but the point is that there are an awful lot of people who will undercut a professional wedding photographer by any amount just to get the work. This is actually killing the business and while it gets the client a cheaper price it also means the client gets a massively sub-standard service.
Having said all this, everyone has to start somewhere. But it’s worth saying that not all photographers are cut out to be wedding photographers. Simply asking your cousin or Uncle Jim to take the pictures puts undue stress on them and is unfair, and likely the results at the end of the day will be disappointing. I’ve seen this first hand unfortunately and the bride was gutted.
