Question 2

What red flags should I watch for with photo/video vendors?

Accepted Answer

No backup equipment, watermarked delivery, unclear usage rights, extremely low prices (quality risk), no contract, inability to show full event galleries, and poor communication responsiveness.

Question 3

What is the best lighting for event photography?

Accepted Answer

Golden hour (1 hour before sunset) produces the most flattering natural light. Indoors, professional photographers use off-camera flash and continuous lighting. Discuss the venue’s lighting conditions with your photographer in advance.

Question 4

How should I handle photo/video for a Bar/Bat Mitzvah?

Accepted Answer

Focus on the Torah reading, family moments, and party energy. Hire a photographer experienced with teens who can capture candid fun. Video highlights set to music make great keepsakes. Consider a same-day edit for the party.

Question 5

What format should I receive my wedding photos in?

Accepted Answer

Request high-resolution digital files (JPEG or TIFF) with full printing rights. A private online gallery for sharing and ordering prints is standard. Some photographers also offer a curated album design.
