steve68 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Why would you avoid someone who may be perfectly good if they are associated with a professional organisation? That is the biggest load of crap I've heard in a while. As has already been said... check out the photographer's work from multiple weddings (all the way through each wedding). You need to know that someone can consistently deliver. Business Facebook pages as great for seeing what clients have said. Training means NOTHING (I have non). What someone can produce is what counts. 'Wind your neck' You missedthe point, 'only' only accredited by way of inhouse diplomas and by just paying a membership fee.

livestrong Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 You missed the point, 'only' only accredited by way of inhouse diplomas and by just paying a membership fee. Most of the professional organisations out there don't require diplomas or training for accreditation... Many require a membership fee and assess a portfolio. That is it. So what if someone is accredited that way? It doesn't change what their work looks like... they are either good or not irrespective of accreditation. There are accredited people who are crap and those who are good, in the same way that there are non accredited people who are crap and those who are good. It is the end product that someone delivers that counts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johead Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 We used Mark from tierney. He's journalistic/contempary with lots of ideas, doesnt do too many group shots, not intrusive and very easy to get on with. Take a look at his blog and photos to give you an idea. We are more than happy with his work... http://www.tierneyphotography.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moosey Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I'd recommend Gary Hibberd (http://www.garyhibberd.co.uk). Great results, and a really good bloke, who makes people very comfortable in the shoots. We've had a few family shoots with him, after playing at weddings where he was the photographer, and he's excellent. Good value too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
