Personality
When selecting your Washington, D.C., and Northern Virginia wedding photographer you are selecting more than just a photographer for your wedding day you are hiring an individual who will spend the majority of your entire day with you photographing your wedding, spending time with your friends and your family, and capturing every moment that is important to you.

Surrounding yourself with individuals and vendors whom you love is key to experiencing an amazing wedding day.
Style
When viewing photographs of various Washington, D.C., and Northern Virginia wedding photographers you should be directly comparing their wedding photography style. Again, are you selecting a wedding photographer based on pricing alone? Do you love the style in which they photograph? Wedding photography style differs between each wedding photographer. No two wedding photographers are the same. If you have found a wedding photographer whose personality you love, ask yourself if you love their style. Can you imagine decorating your home with their style of wedding photography and looking at it for years and years to come? Most people would not go shopping for home decor to place the most unattractive decorations in their home just because it fits into their budget. You should feel a personal attachment to the stylistic approach of your wedding photography. At the end of the day, your Washington D.C. And Northern Virginia wedding photographer should be providing you with wedding photography and artwork that you love and want to show off and/or showcase in your home. Wedding photography style and the personality of your Washington, D.C., wedding photographer should trump price.
Price On that note, let's talk about pricing. While price and budgeting is always a factor when selecting your wedding photographer or any vendor, there are many other factors that should play into your overall decision beyond just price alone. We hear of many couples who wish they would have selected a top of the line Washington D.C., wedding photographer. Whether it's a bridesmaid at a wedding who has seen the wedding photographer that the bride has chosen and can only wish they would have spent a little more to get the best wedding photographer or hearing stories through the grapevine about how much they dislike their wedding photos or don't have any photos to show off as art in their home, it's likely that these couples chose their wedding photographer solely based on price. This is a choice that comes embedded with too much risk and often becomes a mistake in the end that cannot be changed. At the end of the day, when the music fades away, the flowers die, and your budget is spent, the ONE thing you will have to remember all of the moments of your wedding day is your wedding photography. Don't compromise on the only wedding photos that you will be left to look at for the rest of your life.Crystal Image Photography is a Washington D.C. wedding and senior portrait photographer based in Richmond, VA.
