Hey ladies...This is my first post on LI weddings so Im hoping that you all can give me a hand. I am in the process of searching for a photographer but am coming up empty.
Hopefully you can give me some suggestions. Here's what I am looking for:
1. Someone who is professional, timely, responsible, etc... 2. Someone who is talented and creative in terms of a photojournalistic approach...I like the standard shots but I really want to hire someone who can truly capture the essence of the day. 3. The final product is clear, crisp, clean photos...Not grainy or blurry like I see on a lot of sites..... 4. Is on Long Island or willing to travel (has to be in LI, NYC, Queens, etc area)...Not out of state!
Of course there are more points but these are the main ones for now!
I appreciate all of your input and help!!!

Thomas Paul photographers is great...do a search on this site and you will see his great work! I think his website is thomaspaulphotography.com. Duet is also very popular, and Velvet studios....there are so many!! I have heard great things about all of the above!! Good luck!!
oh you HAVE to.. HAVE to.. go see Dom at 12th night.. i went to see him today adn left feeling like wow.. i liked him so much that after fh and i left fh had to go somewhere, i went home and got my mom and took he BACK to 12th night.. i took her to duet and then 12th night today.. even she was like wow when we left 12th night..
the guy is amazing.. and like i said in my other post this evening bout him.. he was the only photographer i've met that treated photography as the art that it is.. not just a business go see him.. he's great
Spelman Studions, Christine Spelman amazing nice person, great photographer.

Re: In desperate need of a photographer
I know this entire process can be overwhelming...my suggestion is to check out Patken Photogher in Lindenhurst. In the past year, I have attended three weddings in which Patken did the photographs and video...each had the same result..stunning! Make your appointments, see what each has to offer and go from there...good luck to you.
I second Duet!!!!!!!!! they do such great work! I took my epics 3 weeks ago and couldn't be happier with my choice..pics in my album!

Creative Compositions in Oyster Bay, NY, they were just so professional, fun, creative and they didn't miss a beat. If you want a top notch company that knows how to capture amazing photos and still stay in the background at your wedding, this is the place to go to.

Re: In desperate need of a photographer
You have got to check out Barnaby Draper. He is amazing and the album deals are crazy. You get so much with his package. He works with another photographer and you get 10 hours with him. He's amazing. He's shot so many musicians including Dave Matthews and John Mayer. I could just go on and on.
