Hi Everyone, 
I just booked my venue and need an amazing photographer.  I'm not from the area and will be getting married in Philadelphia.  Pictures are really important to me so I want to find one of the best.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Also, when speaking with photographers what are some typical questions that I should be asking?  Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you!

Each photographer is different. There is no such thing as the best photographer just like there is no such thing as the best singer/painter etc. Look at what the photographer offers and see if you like his work and than go from there.
