Almost every bride-to-be will be inundated with advice on which wedding photographer to choose from every girlfriend who has been married before her.
Every wedding photographer will have a portfolio of photographs to show you and, believe me, they will ALL be stunning.
But is there anything to be done if, when you finally receive your photographs from your wedding photographer if they are terrible? What if they just don't meet your expectations? When this happens a bride and groom may be so upset by their proofs that they never go back to their wedding photographer to have their actual album put together.
What a shame.
All those memories of their beautiful day which were supposed to have been captured on film are lost in any kind of tangible form.
If you met with your photographer and liked what he or she had to show you in terms of portfolio but were later informed that another person, or an assistant, would actually be shooting the wedding, which should have sent up a huge caution sign.
When you receive your proofs check to see how many photos were actually taken.
If the numbers which were promised in your contract were not taken, you might have some recourse there.
Of course, that's little comfort when the day has long passed and those moments can never be relived.
If many of the shots are dark, this can usually be easily remedied with any professional photography software.
Ask your photographer if he or she has access to a program such as Adobe Photoshop.
Oftentimes, if a client displays and articulates unhappiness with the shots taken by the wedding photographer, they will often readily offer to fix them with a program such as Adobe Photoshop.
You can also check with various friends and family members who attended the wedding.
Many of them play amateur photographer and you may indeed find some unbelievably beautiful, candid photos taken by one of them.
If it turns out that you receive bad photos from your wedding day, above all, try to remain calm and discuss your displeasure with your wedding photographer.
The best way to resolve a problem is to try to deal with it rationally.
It may be very difficult to be rational about something like this, but trust me, it will be very important.
If you are still in the process of planning your wedding, be very specific with your wedding photographer about the kinds of shots you want taken.
Even though you might want to assume that the average photographer will have enough experience to know what kinds of shots work best and are in the most demand from brides and grooms, do not make that assumption.
You may even want to give him or her list of people to include in group/family shots.
There are many solutions that can be looked at if you are unfortunate enough to receive bad photographs from your photographer.
Though it may feel like a huge catastrophe, there is often victory that can be snatched from the jaws of defeat if you remain calm and work with your photographer to find a solution.
If you're wedding photographer has a good reputation, chances are they will want to take whatever steps they can to maintain it and that will start with you.
So remember, if you receive bad wedding pictures, all is not lost.
Hopefully, if your wedding photographer is reputable, and if you approach him with your problems professionally, he will be willing to work with you to fix any problems, and may even have additional suggestions on how to make the bad wedding pictures better.
