Interview with famous wedding photographer - Michel Bohorquez
Hello brides!
There are many doubts about how and when to choose your wedding photographer, there are so many options and so little information, that many times we end up exhausted.
We talked to Michel Bohorquez, a reference in Mexico for photography, especially weddings, who has won several awards as well.
"The best way from my experience of almost 8 years photographing couples is to take your time, but always take into account a range of 6 to 9 months before your wedding to choose your photographer.
It's important to be able to choose the one you like as soon as possible, dates are very precious when your photographer is good.
Also take into account where and when your wedding will be, that is, if the wedding will be in a hacienda where the photographer already has experience or if the wedding will be during the day or at night.
There are photographers who don't have a good control of lighting and that's why they like to work more on daytime weddings.
It is also important to look at their portfolio to see if the style they bring adapts to your wedding, there are photographers who are more portrait photographers and others who are more documentary, so you should be clear about which of these styles you like the most, since there are also photographers who mix several styles.
It is important not to compare your wedding with one on Pinterest, as many brides want photos that they get on this social network and their wedding will not be anything like what is there. Personally I comment that it is better to do something original, than to have a reference, and believe me all weddings are beautiful and different.
The feeling. Believe it or not, the feeling is very important, your photographer will be there with you more than with any supplier, and that connection should always exist, it may save the day of your wedding.
From my experience, it doesn't matter how much you invest in any vendor if you don't have the attitude. Between the nerves and everything that goes into planning a wedding, the attitude of your photographer can influence the outcome.
Don't forget that on that day, no matter what happens, people are there because of the love and appreciation they have for you and your groom. Enjoy that moment with all your energy, your photographer will take care of documenting it, and believe me, the next day you will have several anecdotes to remember."
