Halloween Weddings Can be Glamorous!

Have you ever though about having a Halloween themed wedding. I was dubious until I begun to find these amazing images of how some couples have done it, and done it well might I say! The fun of getting married on Halloween means that you will never have a dull wedding anniversary thats for sure.... you can still have all of the things you've wanted for your wedding but it almost takes the cake (excuse the pun) when it comes picking a theme. Imagine a Victorian style mansion, earthy tones with orange tinges, candelabra's, vines. Have a look at some inspiration before you throw the idea away completely....

Choosing the Perfect Wedding Photographer Can Be Tough!

When it comes to your wedding we know that there can often be some tough decisions. So here's a few hints that might help you make the decision....
  • Set a realistic budget for your photography and also remember that your photo's will be the visual memories of your big day, and if you sacrifice too much with this budget you may end up regretting your decision to skim on this budget. There are hundreds of awesome photographers around, you just need to do a little digging around.
  • That is not to say that you should spend more than you are comfortable with, just shop around for this one. The best referral is always word of mouth, so if a friend of a friend had an amazing photographer for their wedding check out their photo's and get their contact details for your list of 'maybe's'.
  • Facebook and other image sharing social media sites are a good place to find photographers you like and contact the photographer directly for a quote.
  • Photographers are artists, and some like to get very creative, whereas others are specifically wedding photographers and like to take more traditional photo's. Therefore, it is important that you let the photographer know what you do and don't like about posing for your photo's. Perhaps your hubby-to-be never seems to have a good side when it comes to having his picture taken, so getting him to do things he's more comfortable with may be a better option than striking a frozen pose.
  • If perhaps you have your heart set on a certain photographer just let them know that you would love them to be your photographer, but none of their packages are within your price range. More often than not they will work with you to adapt a package to suit your requirements. They will be proud that you really enjoy their work and want their services for your special day.
Below are a list of some awesome Brisbane photographers with a variety of price ranges that might suit your budget, or even give you a place to start:
