Photographer/videographer needed

I need a photographer/videographer for our April 2003 wedding but our budget is limited. Can anyone send me the name of a photographer that will be able to work with me and also deliver good quality? I need all 5x5 proofs, at least a 30 8*10 pic wedding album, 2 parents albums and 1 16x20 pic. I will need only one edited video. Also my ceremony is going to be over two days in Queens and LI. I will need a 5 hour coverage on 4/26/2002 and the same on 4/27/02.

thanks in advance,
Karen

Re: Photographer/videographer needed

I highly recommend Wild Rose for video. I booked Mark Kauffman Studios as my photographer and they have been wonderful to deal with.
What do you mean by 'limited budget'? For some that means around $5K, for others that means $1K.
My advise: concentrate of good quality photography and video and customize your package after deciding on the photographer. I would rather have great 4x6 proofs, then average 5x5 proofs. So just keep an open mind with your package needs.

Re: Photographer/videographer needed

try Bellarino for video, and also Rick and Co for photographers. Both were well priced. If you book with bellarino they give you 30 percent off invitations. You can see the photgrapher on line his packages etc at www.liwedding.com(singular in wedding) click on photographers and then you will see Rick and Co pop up. We live in Nassau county, but took the ride out to Holbrook to book him. He was so nice and accomadating, he works with you. We saw a lot of photgraphers over the summer, and he did the best work and he was reasonable. My FH is afraid he is going to have to wear makeup his stuff was so clear!
