If you are just beginning to plan your wedding and search for a photographer, you may be wondering why some weddings have multiple photographers. There are lots of searches online of couples trying to figure out on their own how many photographers they need for their wedding, and it can be confusing! The good news is though, your photographer will give you their best recommendation based on the details of your wedding (location, size, timeline, etc.). As a New Hampshire wedding photographer, I will get to know all of your goals for your day and will make the recommendation that best suits your goals and your needs. But, that being said, today I’m sharing all of the benefits of having 2 wedding photographers to help guide your choice!  

The Benefits of Having 2 Wedding Photographers

1. Capturing Different Angles and Perspectives


Having a second photographer allows for a variety of angles and perspectives. While the primary photographer captures the main events, the second photographer can focus on candid moments, reactions, and other unique viewpoints that provide a more comprehensive story of your wedding day.

2. Covering Multiple Locations


Weddings often involve multiple locations, such as the ceremony site, reception venue, and getting-ready rooms for both partners. A second photographer ensures that no moment is missed by covering different locations simultaneously, capturing the excitement and details as they unfold in various places! This is something to keep in mind as you’re thinking through all of the different locations for your wedding day.

3. More Comprehensive Coverage


With a second photographer, you receive more extensive coverage of your wedding day. From the morning preparations to the late-night dance party, two photographers can document more moments and interactions, giving you a fuller picture of the day's events.

4. Redundancy for Important Moments


Important moments, such as your vows, first kiss, and first dance, are pivotal highlights of your wedding day. A second photographer provides an extra layer of security, ensuring these key

moments are captured from multiple angles and reducing the risk of missing any crucial shots due to technical issues or unforeseen circumstances.

5. Enhanced Creativity and Collaboration


Two photographers bring different styles and creative approaches to your wedding album. Their collaboration can result in a more dynamic and artistic collection of images, as they inspire and challenge each other to capture the essence of your special day in diverse and imaginative ways.
