To Hire or Not...

Nowadays it's very easy to document everything...way too easy sometimes actually. Why not when every little gadget has a camera installed in it already. The pictures and/or videos are instant and we can re-take them right away if we're not happy with the outcomes. But is that a reason not to hire professionals anymore to cover special events or occasions in our life? I for one don't think so. I would still hire say, a wedding photographer raleigh, to take pictures of my wedding just to be sure they are professionally done. I don't think it's a good idea to take chances on such an important event especially if it's a once in a lifetime thing and something that's been planned for months if not years. I actually know of someone who did that. Instead of hiring a professional, she took a friend's offer to take the pictures on her wedding. Needless to say, she regretted that decision big time because the pictures didn't come out as good as she wanted them. Oh well. Can you say lesson learned?
