I need a photographer!! HElp

I went and saw Silverfox photographers today and they were very good. I just need to look at more and compare prices. Please let me know who used and how much around?

you should look into these photographers if your budget allows...they are amazing!
www.williwongphotography.com
www.jangweddingphotography.com
www.jamiecollinsphotography.com

also try angelica glass (www.angelicaglass.com) she's an amazing photojournalist and only charges around 1350 to shoot your entire wedding. i believe that also includes an engagement photo shoot. she will give you all of your negatives or images on a high res CD, that way you can make your own albums and save tons of money!! tell her leena sent ya!

We haven't booked yet but we checked out Velvet Studio and Patken and they were both excellent. We are meeting with a couple more before we make a decision.

We're using Perceptions Photography and Anthony Vazquez, the owner, is going to be our photographer. They have all different price ranges and you can really customize the packages, but it's not exactly a la carte like Silverfox. We're paying about $6K for everything, including a 2nd 'traditional' photog, our album, 3 parent albums, 75 watercolor thank you cards, etc. Definitely check them out. I also met with Silverfox and thought Perceptions' work was a little better. Hope this helps!

My proofs from Artisan Photography Group are absolutely amazing. After looking at 7 photographers, Chuck had everything we wanted and was very flexible. He, and his Black and White photographer, Dennis, were great to work with the day of the wedding!

Check out Wedding One Group for Photo.

I met with about 10 photographers including some of the popular LIW photographers like Duet, Silver Fox, Patken, Twelfth Night, etc.

With Wedding One, depending on your package you can get your albums, 2 parent albums, and video for under $3500. They are very similar to Duet in style.

I just took their photo package and took a higher end package. They are flexible and will negotiate.

Wedding One

I went to their Flushing office and the contact here is Cindy. 718-939-3535

Jim and Rose from Classical Look Photography were great, very sweet and attentive. My album and proofs were amazing too, the color quality was the best I've ever seen. I had my proof in two weeks and all of them placed in 2 albums. Jim also worked with our budget. My wedding album was just beautiful.

My package was about $2545, because I cut out the parent albums and I got a discount because I booked them after seeing them at the Marriot in Uniondale. Ending Price $3000 because I added in then end.
