1. Choose your photographer at the time of the agreement — don’t let the studio assign the photographer.

2. Review the photographer’s portfolio for your wedding, not just the studio’s overall portfolio.

3. Ask if they shoot RAW format — it’s optimal for quality & editing. Avoid studios that capture images in JPEG only.

4. Ensure the photographer has backup equipment — avoid those with only one camera and lens.

5. Ask about backup photographers for emergencies — avoid hiring one without this contingency plan.
