Once that ring gets slipped onto your finger, you get to pick out a dress, search for a venue, find a florist, and secure a photographer. Although some couples thrive on their wedding to-do list, others can find it daunting. After all, just because you’re getting married doesn’t mean that you’re automatically equipped to plan a party. However, when it comes to finding photographers in VA and DC, one company can help narrow the field—WedMatch.
This post is in partnership with WedMatch because I believe in the services provided.
Why use WedMatch to find photographers in VA & DC?
1. A Virginia photographer started WedMatch to fill a void.
As a full-time wedding photographer, Steven Inge founded WedMatch to serve both couples and photographers. Although he paid for a few national services, in his experience, they weren’t a good resource for couples or photographers.
“It was super overwhelming for couples,” offers Inge. For couples that don’t know much about wedding photography or what style they love, finding a quality photographer can be a stab in the dark. Inge built WedMatch to connect couples with photographers in VA that suit both their style and budget.
2. Finding Virginia photographers is efficient using WedMatch.
“WedMatch is all about being efficient and giving couples an easy way to reach out to photographers,” advises Inge. “It’s easy, user-friendly, fast, and also really accurate.” In addition to being a time-saver, WedMatch can deliver the best possible results in the shortest time.
All couples have to do is answer a few questions and select the photos that resonate with them. Then they’re presented with five photographers in VA that match their style, price range, and are available on their preferred wedding date. Voila! It really is that simple!
3. Trust your Virginia wedding photography to vetted professionals.
Of course, you could search Google or trust a national site for your photography needs. However, couples need to realize that someone isn’t a true professional simply because they are on the web or pay for a national listing.
Each photographer on WedMatch is prequalified to ensure that they have a legitimate business and provide fabulous photos from real weddings. Not only are the photographers vetted, but there are 110 and counting on WedMatch in a variety of price ranges.
4. You can get ultra-specific about your wedding-day photography needs.
By answering a series of questions, couples can hone in on who suits their needs. However, the truly fun and unique part is the photo-matching process. Couples look at a series of images and click on the one in each pair that resonates with them. All of this helps narrow down which photographer is right for you.
And the photos you are choosing from are real wedding photos from actual photographers that are a part of WedMatch. What a fabulous way to find the ideal match for your needs!
Of course, things like price, availability, and geographic coverage are factors. However, other qualifiers, such as experience photographing Indian weddings or being LGBTQ+-friendly, also help couples find the right photographer in VA.
5. Finding photographers in VA is free with WedMatch.
There is no cost to couples to utilize the service. No gimmicks, no unwanted solicitations. Just a list of five photographers who are a perfect match.
How do I use WedMatch to look for photographers in VA?
The process is simple! Start by taking the quiz online. Next, couples enter their city and input their budget and date. Then the fun begins! Make selections about the parts of your day you want captured, what you like to do as a couple, and how involved you want your photographer to be on your big day.
Couples then see a series of real wedding photos, click their favorites, and narrow down their ideal Virginia photographers. When it’s all said and done, couples receive a list of five photographers. As a result, it’s up to you whether you contact them or they contact you.
Yes, it really is that easy! “The result is couples finding a photographer to suit their style in a process that is actually fun, instead of overwhelming and inefficient,” says Inge.
Don’t like your results? You can make tweaks to your location and budget to get new results without having to start from scratch. So simple!
