“The photographer should
have a good sense of when it’s
appropriate to interact, and
when they really shouldn’t be
intervening.” you need. Make sure the photographer will be able to take those
phone calls and provide you with patience, understanding and any
answer needed.”
On the day of the event, Abahel makes sure to arrive early.

Many clients are nervous at big milestones like weddings, so
photographers should be relaxed and try to help out the client,
though the client should not expect a photographer to fulfill
event planner duties.

Cohen said one of the most important qualities in a photogra-
pher comes after the event, in the editing process. She tries to pick
out photographs that she herself would feel she looks good in.

For clients, seeing the photos of their events often allows them
to relive the experience through another set of eyes.

“I do not like having my photo taken,” Cohen said. “I do not
like photographs of myself, so I’m very sensitive to how people
will feel when they see their own photograph. For me, I feel as if
people are paying me for photos, they’re going to look good. ... I
want them to feel good when they see it.” ❤
