Tips for Choosing a Photographer in Portland

Check Reviews & Ratings

Look for photographers with consistently high ratings and a meaningful number of reviews. A photographer with 4.5 stars and 100+ reviews is generally more reliable than one with 5 stars and only 2 reviews.

Verify Credentials

Always verify that the photographer holds appropriate licenses for OR. Check with your state's licensing board for the most up-to-date information.

Compare Multiple Options

Don't settle for the first option. Contact at least 2-3 photographers to compare services, availability, and pricing before making your decision.

Ask About Experience

Inquire about the photographer's experience with your specific needs. Specialists who focus on particular areas may provide better outcomes than generalists.
