Wedding photographs set the stage for long time memories and very few brides wish to take the cheap route where this is concerned. Although we are hesitant to offer advice to try to save money on your wedding photos, with professional wedding photography prices skyrocketing, not all brides can find the money for such services.

These are a few suggestions for budget-minded brides who want to save on wedding photo expenses:

1. Find a member of the family or acquaintance who is a photographer. You are almost sure to find somebody who enjoys photography and has pretty good camera gear. See if you can find a relative who is a pretty good photographer, and request their assistance. You will find that folks are happy to assist with weddings, and you can conserve on wedding expenses by employing their help. If you do find someone, be sure you get together with them prior to the event talk about any specific shots that you want.

2.) Contact the Local University to Hire a Photography Student. The chance to add some photos to their portfolio by photographing an event will delight them. They are not professionals, but you can count on them to have fresh and creative ideas which can translate to memorable photographs.

3.) You Can Provide Disposable Cameras to the Guests As Well. Put the disposable cameras on every table to let your invitees take pictures. You can choose the photo that you like the best after looking at photos from various angles. Place one person in charge of the development of the photos and camera gathering.

(4) If you must have a professional do the job, shop around and contact several photographers for quotes. Tell them you are trying to stay to a strict budget and see what they can do for you. You may well be pleasantly surprised by their reaction. Cutting back on the amount of photos taken will also help you stay within your photo budget. - 24553
