Do you realize that you will be spending the entire day with your photographer? All the other vendors are behind the scenes but the photographer is there all the time getting those photos. In a sense they will be your friend for the day. So it’s really a good idea to meet with them beforehand. Sometimes people will hire someone with only a phone call. What if they show up dirty and in a t- shirt. Yes that does happen. The videographer for a wedding I did once had a skull on his shirt and he looked like he just crawled out of bed. So best to have a meeting to make sure they are who you want in your wedding.
