  Janelle P. asked:

  How soon is too soon to choose a photographer? What's the rule of thumb? Our wedding is in June 2016, over a year away, so we have some time to search and find our best match. What is a reasonable time frame/unreasonable for providing a down payment or deposits? We just chose our venue and we were surprised by how far in advance some places were already booked - we don't want to have the same thing happen with a photographer, but also don't want to be left high and dry by choosing one too early and have some circumstance leave us scrambling to find another as the day gets closer.

  

  Nancy B. replied:

  I understand what the others are saying about booking early, but just a word of caution, you don't want to book to early, I have dealt with more than one of my brides who has booked very early (18 months or more out) only to get within 12 months and something happen and the photographer ends up going out of business, or some other way flaking and deposits have been paid and now they are not only out the money but have to start all over - I don't tell you this to scare you I work very hard with each of my brides to make their whole experience with me as stress free as possible so I just want to share experience with you so hopefully you can avoid their mistakes. I am not a photographer, I create custom stationery, so I would love to talk with you about your invitations, and save the dates - those we can start this early as your save the dates can go out in just 6 months or so. Good luck with everything www.facebook.com/platinumdesigns
