So, i had e-mailed both of them, Gina Esposito and Aj Ingogla and Gina got back to me but I didn't get back to her in time and in a week and a half she booked with someone else :( and Aj never got back to me after a month of e-mails...so i finally got up the courage to call him and leave him a message.... He called me back and said all my e-mails went to spam and that he was sorry and that he was able to do my wedding!!!! I got sooooo excited! Then ...I got an e-mail today that he made a mistake and that he is not available (Story of my life) I was so upset. I am trying really hard to be okay with this but its just hard I really wanted AJ and I was so excited, I was telling everyone that I was going to have him and I was showing everyone his videos....Sorry girls but i just had to vent.

Re: ahhh NO Aj and NO Gina
I'm so sorry, but I'm a firm believer everything happens for a reason. I don't really know Gina's style, but I know AJ's style and it is very similar to J Castillo. From what I have read on this board the two tend to recommend each other if the other is booked. It's worth a shot to look...

I'm sorry!
Take a look at Benchwerk Photography for photo and Myther Ganibe for video. They're beyond AMAZING!!! I used both for my wedding and they're hands down my favorite vendors. Both are in my review.

Re: ahhh NO Aj and NO Gina
I'm sorry.. that stinks! Getting all excited just to be disappointed is horrible!
For photo and video, I do recommend North Island Photography. They have amazing video pricing (if it's still going on.. not sure if it was raised). I couldn't find anything else comparable. Good Luck!

Sorry that happened. I went through the same issues, but I loved who I ended up booking. You will find another vendor that you will be satisfied with.
