About Alecca Synclair Photography
If we haven’t met yet, I’m so thankful you’re here. If you’re going to be spending one of the most important days of your life with someone, it’s helpful to get to know them first, right? Here’s a little about me. I was born and raised in a tiny town called Miles, Iowa. Tiny as in my town didn’t even have a stoplight. Crazy! I have always loved documenting things. Especially the candid moments in life. My senior year of college, I decided to take the plunge and buy an official wedding camera. The rest is history. After photographing my first wedding in Iowa, I realized becoming a full time Iowa and destination wedding photographer was my dream! Fast forward a few years and here we are! I still cannot believe that I get to document couples’ wedding days for my job.

Questions to ask your Iowa Wedding Photographer
So, there are a million photographers out there, right? How do you chose one? What questions can you ask to be confident about the wedding photographer you hire? Whether the right photographer is myself or someone else, here are some questions to ask to help you decide!

Then, I always recommend hopping on a call with the photographers you are considering! It helps to get to know them in person. Make sure you vibe together. Is it someone you’d enjoy being around on your wedding day? Lastly, trust your gut. I cannot express this enough. Additionally, look at their reviews! Check Google, Facebook, etc. Reviews can go so far!
