Start off with word of mouth and you will be on the right track. People always talk about good service. Talk to friends or work colleagues that have held wedding days similar in size and outline to what you are planning to decide what professional photographers worked successfully within their given budget.
Check with your wedding reception venue. They will know many great professional. Within five minutes you could walk away with a list of twenty great companies to call.
Believe it or not, but using the services of a wedding planner can save you money. They are experienced professionals that will not only be able to find services at a decreased price, they will know the best people in the industry to use. At the end of the day, they often make their money on what they save in your budget so they have to keep within what you set.
But when it comes to affordable wedding photography, sometimes limiting the run and type services you need rather than choosing a low-priced photographer will help you stay within your budget - more is not always better and at the end of the day having high quality is better than high quantity. If you have your heart set on a unique wedding photographer that works in a way you love, then compromise to get to the price that you need; perhaps have the photographer only take your ceremony and formal shots and then ask your guests to help take pictures throughout your reception to be accumulated into an album at a later date.
One really simple idea that is also fun too is to provide your guests with disposable cameras. This gives your guests more of a feeling of involvement and you will also receive a wide range of photos that would not be taken by a professional.
Another great and creative tip is to invite your friends and family to do part of the wedding preparations for you such as the flower display. Not only is this a great way to involve your friends you can ask them to not give bridal gifts but to do something else instead. After all many wedding gifts will often never be used so will stay in a cold cupboard. Instead your friends will likely be thrilled and delighted to be asked. This will raise your marriage experience for everyone and spare you money.
In the end, affordable bridal photography is about creativity and flexibility, time and energy. Being willing to work outside the box and think of small and often creative ways to save money, finally all those small steps will add up to big savings.
