Top 10 reasons you need to avoid
cheap wedding photographers:
1. The most common problem with low
priced wedding photographers is that
you’ll have pictures that are okay,
but you'll be left having hoped for more. They
tend to offer the lowest quality...
no technical mastery of photography,
boring poses, flat lighting, lack
creativity, mediocre equipment, and
bland albums.
Jeff Schaefer has been studying
photography since 1989, and
professionally photographing
weddings since 2001. He has
the knowledge and experience to
create gorgeous, outstanding
photographs, even under less than
ideal conditions.
2. Most
budget wedding photographers
won’t stand behind their work if
there is a mistake, or worse, they
ruin all the pictures.
Jeff Schaefer Photography has been
in business since 2001 and has
gained a reputation for fair
policies and customer satisfaction.
A reference list from the previous
year’s weddings is available for you
to contact.
3.
Low priced wedding
photographers tend to charge extra
for things other photographers
normally include.
Cheap photographers can
nickel and dime you to death. They
advertise a low starting price, but
you find that it will cost a great
deal more to actually get anything.
Jeff Schaefer Photography has one
wedding package. All optional item
prices are disclosed up-front at the
initial consultation. You won’t be
surprised with extra fees after your
wedding.
4. Some
cheap wedding photographers
will hand you the poorly exposed,
non-color corrected digital
negatives and walk away… leaving you
on your own to try to get decent
prints out of poor images. What
seemed like a good deal may in fact
cost you more in the long run.
With Jeff Schaefer Photography, you
will have an album credit which
enables you to get a very nice
wedding album. If you choose to
purchase the high-resolution image
disc, all of your images will be
density and color corrected,
sharpened, and ready to print.
5. The
budget wedding photographers
in
Cincinnati
tend to leave your reception before
their time is up. They tend to
be out the door as soon as you cut
the cake… failing to photograph the
reception’s fun spirit and
atmosphere. What does this
mean to you… LESS PHOTOGRAPHS; or
the photographer rushes to cram your
wedding day photography into his
short time-frame.
Jeff Schaefer will not cut you short
on time. Our only wedding
package is 8 hours, so you can feel
assured that photographic
opportunities won’t be missed.
6. Some
low cost wedding
photographers will verbally promise
the world, but won’t back it up with
a contract. Their contract will
state “prices subject to change”.
That album you want after your
wedding… guess what, the price went
up.
Jeff Schaefer Photography
contractually guarantees all prices
for one year from your wedding date;
Period.
7.
Cheap wedding photographers
in
Cincinnati
tend to limit the number of
photographs you receive. They
limit the number because every photo
costs them money. And, they have so many bad photo
mistakes they’ll have to throw out.
Jeff Schaefer Photography puts no
limit on your number of wedding photographs, and averages
over 600 images per wedding.
8. Unfortunately, I routinely get
calls from frantic brides, because
days before the wedding, their
photographer called and cancelled,
or they just can’t be found.
Inevitably, it is the low
budget photographers that
don’t take their commitment
seriously. Or worse, are out
to get your payment then hide.
I care about every customer, and my
reputation. I can assure you
that not only will I be there, I’ll
be there early.
9. The
low cost wedding
photographers in
Cincinnati are not
cheap because they are nice
and want to do you a good turn, and
it's not because they have found
quality equipment at a reduced price
so they pass the savings on to you,
and it's not because they have a top
quality printer they work with that
will produce outstanding images at a
reduced price. It's because
they are cutting corners... most of
the time and they are looking for
the fast buck from the person who
only wanted
cheap.
Jeff Schaefer Photography uses
proven products and techniques. We
will not cut corners on your
precious wedding photographs.
10. “You get what you pay for.” This
old adage is true, especially in the
photographic industry. If you want
quality photographs you should hire
a photographer based on the VALUE
you receive, not the PRICE.
Value = Quality + Service + Price
You can get high quality and super
service, but you can’t get both and
still get the lowest price. The
total value is the combination of
all three... Quality, Service, and
Price!
Jeff Schaefer Photography provides
high quality photography and
products and personal service at a
very fair price. Jeff Schaefer
Photography’s wedding package is not
inexpensive, but it is priced
competitively and of true
high value.
