Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How can couples find reviews of Hautes-Alpes wedding photographers?

A: We call them Client Letters. At the WPJA, we decided more than 20 years ago to avoid incorporating those third-person testimonials and endorsements that are found all too often in advertisements. Instead, we elevated our listings with the use of Client Letters, which represent the actual words and feelings of the clients who booked those Hautes-Alpes wedding photographers for their own wedding.

Q: How can couples find Hautes-Alpes photographers for pre-wedding engagement portraits?

A: The WPJA issues Diamond Awards for Hautes-Alpes wedding photographers to showcase their best engagement photography work. These awards are given to photographers who prove that they have an ability to be creative, artistic, and intuitive while working on-location with couples who are newly engaged.

Q: Can a wedding photojournalist create artistic portraits on my Hautes-Alpes wedding day?

A: While wedding photojournalists strive to capture candid moments on the wedding day, our photographers also are skilled artists who can compose powerful portraits.

Elopements: Traditional and Modern

The oldsters among the WPJA ranks no doubt remember when 'to elope' meant, in Merriam-Webster’s definition, “to run away secretly with the intention of getting married, usually without parental consent.” Many wedding photographers have gone on the lam with couples who did just that.
