Before hiring a photographer, there are a few things I would like for you to think about...
Photographers
Photography is a trade. Photographers are paid to create, deliver, license or sell photographs. Photography requires training and specialized knowledge like other trades, but doesn't require a license or even a college degree as a profession does.
We are not Vendors
Photographers work in tangible goods, not knowledge. They are paid ultimately for photos. Their knowledge and imagination are important parts of their photos, but it's the tangible photos, not the ideas, for which they are paid.
Anyone can call themselves a photographer. Yes, you can have a degree from an accredited photography school or some certification from photography trade groups, but it's not required and people who might hire you don't care. Why should they? Photography is about capturing a moment in time. We as photographers are hired to do just that but all photographs are not memorable…
At Visions, Dreams & Images Photography we not only strive to capture more memorable images but we also strive to be a welcomed addition to your event and not a distraction. We want your experience with us to be equally as memorable as the final product we provide.
