This incurs additional charges, so discuss everything beforehand. You can contact 3-4 best photographers to get the quote and compare packages and conclude bargaining option is still open for you as they keep the good margin for themselves.

7.      Read reviews and recommendations.

Confirm the delivery span, what kind of album would he be providing. It usually takes s 1 to 3 months in selecting, designing and printing of photo album. Raw files don’t look that attractive so, designing is an important aspect of photography. Make sure the editing has been done according to you, you can suggest the designer for simple retouch or retouch using special effects or color corrections or cutting/pasting pictures etc.

10.  Photo Albums
