Selecting Photographers Based On Their Social Media Page!
Choosing a wedding photographer is a significant decision. Thus, selecting photographers by only looking at their Instagram page can be a mistake. The Instagram profile of a photographer showcases carefully handpicked photos specifically designed to reach on social media.
Instagram portfolios highlight the reels only. So, you cannot judge a photographer’s ability to capture candid moments, manage different lighting conditions, or tell a complete story with a few carefully chosen pictures.
