Finding The Best Wedding Photographer
Your wedding will be something out of your fondest dreams if you plan it correctly. This will be a day that you will want to remember for the rest of your life. One way to be sure that you can remember this day forever is to hire a good wedding photographer. Your wedding photographer should be able to capture this special day on film. Here are some tips on how to get the best photographer for your wedding:
1. Get references. It is very important that your photographer be established in the business and have good references. You will want to make sure that he or she has photographed weddings before and knows how to take proper photos otherwise you might as well just get someone to take snaps. The best way to find out about a photographer is through references. You want to make sure the photographer shows up on time and knows what to do. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity so you want to be certain to hire a professional.
2. Discuss outdoor options. Make sure that your wedding photographer knows that you want some outdoor photos and is fully equipped for outdoor shooting. Most professional photographers are well versed with indoor and outdoor lighting, but discuss this with them just to be sure.
3. Look for venues that offer natural beauty. Your photographer will make the most of natural beauty in the environment if you help him or her out by choosing a venue where there are lovely backdrops. Look for venues that offer splendid backdrops for your special day.
4. Get a photographer who will direct the wedding. You and the groom will be overwhelmed on your wedding day. A good photographer will be assertive enough to make sure that they get all of the right photos for you to remember everything that happened. Look for a photographer who not only knows how to take good pictures, but also knows how to direct the scene to get the best and most memorable pictures. You do not want to miss out on a photo opportunity because of a timid photographer.
5. Have two photographers. If you know a photography art student, you can offer them a chance to shoot your wedding along with the professional in black and white. While a traditional wedding photographer will get everything picture perfect for the wedding album, and in colour, an art photographer may shoot some black and white photos that are candid and tell a story. It is good to have both a professional photographer and an art photographer to tell the story of your wedding that you will cherish for years to come.

I do I become a game reviewer for a magazine?
I’ve been wanting to work for a gaming magazine for a long time now. I love reviewing games, and I believe I’m pretty good at it. I’m also experienced in doing visual arts, advertisement, and public relations, plus I can speak 3 languages. I’m not aiming for those big gaming magazines. Just here in South East Asia. Do you think I have a shot? Or are there some details I’m missing?
any help would be great. Thank you!
If I were you I would start reviewing every game that came out and start a blog. Put some time into advertising it and place adds on it; then once it has some sort of following (this could take a few months depending on how much time and effort you put into it), send some articles to your magazine of choice (or multiple mags) along with your resume. If you have a following already, it’s beneficial for the mag to take you on because they might gain your fans as readers. In the very least, they might have you feelance for them, so you could be paid by the article, which in my book, would be pretty cool.
Also, to be a great candidate, you want to be informed on not just one genre of game – reviewers are paid to be on top of kids games, fps, rpgs, puzzle games, simulators, everything. And they are fairly knowledgeable about the companies that develop and release the games, their histories, their future projects, and the technology they utilize. If you already are at this level, then I say go for it! But if not, it’s something you can work on in the mean time.
Good luck!!
