Everyone these days is looking to have a marriage ceremony somewhere different and with as much pomp and ceremony that they can afford. But a Santa Barbara wedding is something exceptionally special. Even Ventura weddings are somehow special as long as all the right arrangements have been made beforehand.

Of course, a lot of planning goes into the big day itself. One of the most important decisions to be made is which photographer to use. Of course, this is of paramount importance because these professionals are given the task of making memories of the day and without them people would be completely devastated.

Of course, accidents will happen, but the true professional will have backup plans for any consequence. Sending along two photographers, with more than two cameras, batteries and any other paraphernalia that is required ensures that no one will be disappointed at the end of the day.

But it is not only the equipment that needs to be top notch. A clever photographer will be able to take those special and intimate photos that will delight and surprise the couple after the day itself. Lighting from a setting sun, or a background of rolling waves are excellent ways to make sensational photos without really spending any extra cash. It just takes a talented photographer to see the perfect spot and pose to get a great photo.

There have been instances when photographers have completely messed up the photos for the big day. Insurance policies are there to ensure that the ceremony and celebration can be reconstituted, but nothing can replace the original day and anything that happened then. It is much like rerunning a movie where the end is known. However, in real life, this can absolute ruin what was perhaps the most important day in the life of the couple.

So the best thing to do when choosing a photographer for the big day is to ask relatives and friends who they have used in the past. Do not just look in the yellow pages for a list of artisans because this is such an important part of the day. Check them out well beforehand to take a look at their portfolios. If they are unwilling to show any past photos, or if they do not have any, then this should start a warning bell for the couple. Costs are not what is important here so try to find someone who knows exactly what is happening in the way of fashion and what innovative ideas are on the market.

Take, for example, video photography. Many programs on computer set ups will be able to manipulate the film to some extent and add some kinds of special effects to the finished product. It can even lighten or darken shots that were not fully exposed so that faces or silhouettes can be seen more clearly. With this in mind, make it clear to the photographer what is, and what is not expected of him when it comes to finishing the film in this way.
