Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

Any feedback on Proline or Glenmar??

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

I was just wondering why pictures are the least important to you b/c at the end of a 5 hour party that is all you have left! Honestly that is where I spent most of my money. I don' t know anything about the 2 vendors you mentioned but I am using Franklin Square Photographers--www.fsphoto.com!

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

I have a list of photographers that are fantastic with various packages and prices under 1500. Let me know if you want it.

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

I just really hate how I photograph--I def want pictures and a video to have but I hardly ever like myself in pictures.

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

i dont know anything about those two vendors... my photog was $1500 to come for the day... im getting an engagement shoot, and all of the proofs(600+) and digital files...his video prices were very resonable too...

if you choose a good photog, im sure they will take pictures that you feel comfortable with...

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

Does anyone know anything about 'the Pros'? Their prices seem pretty reasonable and they offer package deals on photographs, video and DJ-however, I don't know anyone who has used them.

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

Bill Minnick has very reasonable packages to choose from...he does great work..he is in the running for us! he lots of packages...from very inexpensive to expensive..his work is great

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

All I can say is please don't skimp too much on pics....I did that and I am so disappointed...and I can never get that day back. There are so many affordable great vendors on here for photography.

that is really funny... i really hate how i photograph too, but i though that if i spend a whole lotta money on a photographer he might be able to make me look better. lol

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

Hi, I am not skimping on photography--I just don't need all the enlargements, wallet size pics etc...
I really just want a wedding album for us, two parent albums--and a video (and my proofs)
The quotes I got were 4300-6000--which i think is alot.
I just want to keep the cost down but still have nice pictures.

Hey Csorisi we're FSPhoto/Video people too! We love them! Their personalities sold us! Pics & Video were top on our list. We wanted to preserve that day forever!

I don't usually like myself in pics either but LOVED my wedding pics!

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

12th Night photography is who I am using. twelfthnightphoto.com.

They have various packages that allow you take the negatives and make up your own albums...very reasonable...

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

12th night also works with someone for video- I believe Mittermax..I am not using them- but using Then Til Now...video wasn't at the top of my list but their price was pretty reasonable as well...

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

My photographer was Artie from Artistic Images and I cant say enough about him. Since I have been on this site I must have given him so much business! He is very affordable and has packages that suit everyones needs. He is on Lakeland Ave, I think in Bohemia. I got my proofs back and I am so glad I booked with him.

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

I'm using Proline. I thought their prices were pretty resonable and they were very professional. We went to 3 other places and I just liked all they had to offer us. I did also go to Duval which was my second choice. They were great also. If u want info on them fm me

I agree with this completely. The photographer is our most expensive vendor aside from the hall itself. that's the only keepsake we will have.

ETA:

flowers - will be dead in a few days
DJ/Band - gone as soon as the party is over
Invitations - paper that gets thrown out

none of these things are tangible. Pictures are!

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

Try Artistic Images. The guy who runs it is WONDERFUl, his name is Artie. The prices were perfect..not too expensive not too cheap...and AWESOME pics. Plus, Arite is SO FUN to work with. FM me if you want more info.

Re: Need help deciding.. Looking for advice

Thank you So Much! I have no idea what I am getting into and really appreciate the help.
