Congratulations if you’ve recently got engaged! Planning a micro wedding in beautiful towns like Godalming or Guildford in Surrey can be a very exciting time. Choosing the right photographer to capture these moments is essential. Here’s why hiring a professional photographer for your small wedding is worthwhile, and what to consider when searching in Surrey.
First, micro weddings allow for a more personal and relaxed approach to the day. However, this doesn’t mean skimping on quality when it comes to photography. With a guest list of under 50 people, each photo counts, as the photographer can focus more on genuine interactions, details, and emotions.
When choosing a photographer, look for someone with experience in intimate weddings. A professional familiar with micro weddings will know how to blend into the background, allowing you and your guests to enjoy the day without feeling like you’re constantly being directed. Surrey-based photographers often have a great knowledge of the area, knowing the best local spots to enhance your photos. Don’t hesitate to ask for a portfolio or examples of other small weddings they’ve shot. THere are some examples of others I have taken on my WEDDING INFO PAGE.
Finally, consider the package. Many photographers now offer custom packages for micro weddings, which can be more affordable than traditional wedding packages. By hiring a photographer who understands the subtleties of smaller events, you’ll get images that beautifully reflect the spirit of your special day.
R&L’s special day
You may well recognise the venues for this fabulous micro wedding at Guildford Resgister Office and then the Harbour Hotel. The beautiful couple wanted me to capture the service then the drinks part of the after party. What a wonderful afternoon of celebrations. I hope you have a wonderful future together.
