Vendor RAVE w/ lots of PICS! UPDATED after receiving pics!
We FINALLY took our Casual pictures and they are AWESOME. We used Brian D. Oakes who specializes in portrait photography. I highly recommend him for portrait/engagement shoots! He was so awesome to work with. He also does a really cool mother/daughter concept where he captures the emotion between mothers and daughters. No joke, it almost made me cry when he showed me an example, even though I didn't know the people in it.Engagement pictures
That's us on the HOME PAGE! If you click 'contact' then 'find your photos' and then 'heather and neal engagement session', you'll see all 180 photos....
Can anyone help me pick a favorite????

We aren't using him for the wedding because he really focuses on intimate moments between people. We wanted to use someone who specializes in capturing those special moments without the distraction of a party going on! Take a look at this link--this is that mother/daughter thing I was talking about:
Mother-Daughter sessions
and click on 'view video link'. I swear, it will make you tear up!

Re: Vendor RAVE w/ lots of PICS! UPDATED after receiving PICS!!!
We got the final, touched up photos and they look amazing. After receiving the final pictures, I realize how important it is to not only get a great photographer, but also someone who will take the time to perfect each photo and touch them up. I wore an ivory sweater, but Brian suggested tinting the sweater blue in some of the pics to bring out my FH's eye color and complement my skin tone more. He was so right! He even removed an ugly crane in the background of a few pictures. Brian did an amazing job.Brian's website--last three pics are us!!!
That third to last pic is one of my faves. We chose to do it horizontally instead of vertically, as pictured.
What do you all think?
