Once you have booked your wedding destination, next comes booking a wedding photographer. Destination wedding can be very exciting no matter wherever they are in the world. Keep these four tips in mind before you plan in to join your clients for a destination wedding photography event.
Have a pricing structure that is personalized – Photography related to destination weddings usually have a different pricing structure as compared to a local wedding. These can be in terms of services as well as costs each time.
You will have to factor in since your clients will be paying for accommodations, transportations, and travel fees to and from the wedding. These destination wedding clients will want a more personalized wedding photography than what you offer when your clients are local.
Have all your paperwork done – Meticulous preparations are required for a destination wedding more than a local wedding. This happens because the location might be new territory for all of you especially when it comes to destination wedding photography.
Another point to keep in mind is that you might need to apply for a tourist visa and you will also need money exchange in due time. You also might have to change your business insurance policy to cover for you when you travel for the event.
Arrival and stay – No matter wherever you are travelling, you might have to arrive at least two or three days in advance can be an ideal. However, if the wedding is held in a far away country, you might need additional days. In many an unfortunate cases, it might so happen that travel plans can get delayed at entry points, airports and customs.
If you want the destination wedding photography to schedule in time, arrive at least two days earlier prior to the actual event. This will ensure you that you arrive without stress and you will have enough time to work out any circumstances that may delay your arrival.
