Wedding photographer choices are sometimes overwhelming. It’s often daunting knowing where to start. Your choice is important as it’ll be those wedding photos which give lasting memories to sit and reminisce over. So it’s important to get right. Here are 7 reasons why now’s the time to book James Jagger as your chosen wedding photographer.

Wedding photographer professionalism guaranteed.

James is a true professional. He’s been working the wedding circuit for a while. And having been the wedding photographer for countless weddings - of all types and styles - he’s well-versed in the art.

**Professionalism guranateed with James Jagger Photography.**

Mr Jagger knows what it takes to be a wedding photographer. It’s not just about standing there and clicking. The person in question needs to be a friend, a guide, and an organiser yet deliver the goods when all’s said and done. James certainly does this. And more!

Pre-flight checks.

Reading this your wedding day is (probably) a little way in the distance. Although they always come around quicker than you imagine. With a bit of time, there’s a chance to get acquainted with James and run through your ideas and expectations.

It’s also an opportunity to enjoy a pre-wedding day photoshoot, free of charge! This, again, is a good idea as it’ll help the bride and groom get comfortable in front of the camera and all you to understand how James operates. It’s also a chance to work through various framing options and see what lighting suits you both. Everyone’s different so this rehearsal can pay big dividends.

Getting an overview of your wedding venue.

James is a wedding photographer who is familiar with many different wedding venues in and around the Surrey, Hampshire and Sussex area. As such, he’ll be able to visualise certain shots, relative to your overall style and theme, and go through them with you.

In some cases, however, with time again in mind, there may be a window of opportunity to scout your wedding venue and determine a rough ‘script’. Giving James a shout and running through your options is the best bet so don’t be afraid to call or email him.

Ticking off one of the most important wedding jobs.

Weddings take a lot of organising. There’s always something to do if you want your big day to go off without fault. Having your chosen wedding photographer in the bag, well in advance, will remove a whole load of stress.

**Booking James now ensures that job is ticked off so you can focus on other aspects.**

Wedding season in the UK is super busy. Everything gets booked up quickly the closer you get to seasonality. This includes James who is always in demand due to his proven track record. It’s worthwhile chatting and then deciding to book James so you don’t have to worry about this part of your day.

Listening and communication.

Two of the most underrated skills a wedding photographer can possess are listening and communication. You may be a bride and groom with definitive ideas of how you want your wedding day to play out. Including that of your wedding photography. Equally, there are plenty of couples who don’t know where to start.

Fortunately, James is used to this. He’ll listen to all your ideas and thoughts prior to giving you some suggestions. Being able to appreciate your situation, and interpret your wants and needs is vital. As is communicating this back. Also, communication during the day, if needed, and post-wedding are super important. That way all anxieties will be kicked into touch.

Transparency is everything.

James Jagger operates on a wholly human level. He’s not working for some big wedding agency. Nor is he so high on a pedestal that he’s aloof. James gets your situation 100% and deals with all clients in a personable and friendly manner.

One big point is there are no complicated and muddied contracts to chew over. When you book James it’s done in a relaxed way with the opportunity to further discuss proceedings after you’ve made the decision to go ahead. Certainly, it’s not doors closed until the actual date. At any point, couples can contact James to run through things. James appreciates plans may change. And that’s OK.

Wedding photography value and worth.

Securing James as your wedding photographer will see so much value added. As already mentioned he’ll be able to run through your plans and conduct a pre-wedding photoshoot ahead of the date. With enough time left to switch things around if needed. This is worth so much when you consider the stresses and strains of organising a wedding day.

And on the day James works hard. He wants everything to be as special as it can be for the bride and groom. Hence why he’ll be right in the thick of it when needed, or blending into the background when not required to be so visible. All that’s then left is for you to enjoy your time to the max!

Other wedding photographers are available, but…

It’s true: other wedding photographers are available. But many won’t deliver the personal touch that James Jagger can. And previous results speak louder than words. Many examples of which you can see by browsing the James Jagger Photography website.
