Tips for Booking a Wedding Photographer in Montreal
- Book 9–12 months ahead for peak season (May–October weekends).
- Review full albums, not just highlights: A photographer’s full delivery from one wedding tells you more than a curated portfolio.
- Confirm drone licensing: Drone wedding photography in Quebec requires Transport Canada certification. Verify with the photographer.
- Engagement shoot first: Use the engagement session to test communication and style fit before the wedding day.
- Get image rights in writing: Confirm what you can print, post to social, and share.
