This holiday season, I came across a problem that haunts all photographers. As I asked someone to take a photo of my sisters-in-law and myself, the result was less than pleasant…

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][vc_single_image image=”3879″ border_color=”grey” img_link_large=”” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]

Below I have outlined the top 10 reasons I feel hiring a professional photographer matters.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

1. The Result

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3856″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

Saving money on a family friend will likely result in poor photos. As much as saving money in the moment can be a wonderful thing, having professional photos to always look back on and share long after those memories fade is priceless.

2. Your surroundings

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3419″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

A professional not only has eyes on how you look but how your overall surroundings look. Are there trees popping out of someones head, are their people photo bombing the background or even worse nature creeping up on us in the moment.

3. Posing

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3855″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

We all have insecurities, so hiring a professional will always pose you and your loved ones in the most flattering way possible.

4. Subject Placement

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3077″ img_link_large=”” img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]If your like me and are taller than most of the women in your family. Then you know we often cast a shadow on the shorter people, in our family. A professional photographer will stop these mistakes from happening.

I also have the lightest hair out of the family. This makes me stick out like a sore thumb, if not placed in the right spot. I make a habit to always put myself in the middle, so I look less out of place. Why because as a professional I know how important symmetry can be.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

5. Lighting

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3862″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

A professional will always have the best lighting available for you. To be honest this can be the hardest part of photography. Flash does not always help the problems of your surroundings.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

6. Clarity

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3857″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

Let’s be honest, are you going to hang that blurry photo in your living room?

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_empty_space height=”30″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

7. Privacy

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3858″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

Hiring a professional, takes some of the pressure off of you. Getting the images you truly want, without excluding anyone on purpose or by accident. Most importantly meeting your photographer at their studio or office, where the focus is 100% on you, with no distraction so I can learn your comfort zones.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

8. Insurance

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3822″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

Professional photographers have insurance, so you never have to worry about liability.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

9. Backed Up

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” image=”3868″ img_size=”full” img_link_large=””][vc_column_text]

With technology today, phones and SD cards can be unreliable. If your images are not properly backed up then they are gone forever.
