I am considering two photographers at this point - Fine Art Behind the Scene (I think they were both very good - any input would be greatly appreciated.

Karen, If I go with Fine Art I am going to use Frank - how about you? I think I already wrote you this but I'm not sure.. I liked Frank but I think he was a little quiet - I'm worried that he won't be assertive enough. I thought the place was very nice - they give you a lot in a package (not the least expensive and not the most - looks to me like they do GREAT WORK - I wouldn't be worried at all if I went with them. Let me know your thoughts. JuneBride

Fine Art - long

I think you are right about speaking already about this. I think they give you alot in their packages and are willing to throw alot of extras in. I know several people that have used them but all have used Jimmy as the photographer. That is my only concern. I was thinking of using Chuck but don't know anyone who used him. I don't think you need to worry about Frank. I just recently spoke to someone who use to post on this board who had Frank as her photographer. She said he was great. She had about 900 proofs.

Karen What did you think about Chuck? I guess Jimmy is booked on your day? Would you consider using Frank?

Actually, I don't think any of them are booked for my date. I found Jimmy to be a little pushy at another wedding I was in. Therefore I'm torn between pushing for Jimmy or going with Chuck. I really liked Chuck's personality but I'm not sure about his pictures. I didn't meet with Frank and have no references except the most recent one I told you about.

I used Fine Art for my wedding. If you can, go with Jimmy, as he is their main photographer, and uses Frank as his assistant. Frank is good at the 'usual' photos, and gets clear pictures, but Jimmy is the more creative photographer, and captures the 'little moments' that you would never otherwise see. They are both good, though. Good luck.
