Re: Patken Photography

I didn't get a good impression when we were looking for photographers, I felt like it was a 'photo mill' JMO

you'll know if they are right for 'you'

Re: Patken Photography

We booked them and cancelled all our other photographer appointments after meeting with them. I loved their work and their prices were pretty reasonable considering all of the stuff that we needed. We did our engagment pictures in January and I loved how they came out. FM me if you need any further info...

We also booked Patken. Steve will be our photographer. We took our engagement pictures this past November and are really happy with how they came out.

Re: Patken Photography

We used them for out wedding at Lombardi's on the Sound and used Steve for photography and Tim for video. Both did a great job.

I gave Steve a long list of must takes and I would say he got about 95% of them (it was 4 pages long) plus a bunch of others. He did a lot candids, photogjournalistic as well as more traditional which the parents were happy about.

I have some pictures in my review on the Brides Review. It is probably quite a few pages back.

I don't think you will be disappointed using them. Be clear about what you want and they will provide it. I can't wait to get out SoHo album back.

Re: Patken Photography

Well I just booked vinnie at Patken. Thanks for all your feedback. I really liked Doug's style but he's way to expensive. Vinnie style seemed closest to his. I love the digital SoHo albums. I also booked the video pakage with them. 2 things to cross off the list
