Hey girls! 08er crashing

I would recommend any of those three! They all have great reputations!

I saw TP was your top choice and I just wanted to respond to the 'photoshop' comment. . TP only really does that stuff with a couple of the photos. . . and the originals are always available. Those are usually the ones that get shown off, so most girls see these, because lots of people think they are cool! I don't know if everyone gets to see the majority of his photos. . . .

I just didn't want anyone to get turned off by that, since its something that you can easily tell TP that you aren't interested in if you aren't. . . or you can get the original photo along with the photoshopped version. . .whatever, you get what I mean.

To each their own, but I just wanted to clarify!

I would make up a list of pros and cons for each photographer and just carefully weigh it out! Find someone who you like, they will be around alllllllll day



great to know! Something to think about while looking at each photgs work...do you want more posed or candid shots? Some photographers have a more 'sexy' appeal than others too..just things to look at!



HEy i want a photographer with that 'sexy' appeal and candid style. I like the style of patken i dont know it seems more fun and flirty.



i so agree with that. i really like thier sexy and flirty style. i will have to wait and see thier pic books becuase online it just seems like that is thier entire style.. not so sure id show my grandparents, etc. all my pictures. maybe i can get TP to do some recreation shots of patkens...lol

i just know my super traditional mom would FREAK if i sent her Patkens website. lol. so i was hoping to do a mix. From what i read about and talked to TP he seems open for whatever i want to do. I made a casual list of adjatives of things i want in my pictures. I was going to show that to him (sexy and flirty on it) and bring some example pics of what i mean. Im sure he'll tell me if hes open to it or not. im not asking for extreme just a little something spicy to add to all the formal shots.

Dont worry about the photoshop effects, i just had my e-pics with him and he said they were getting away from that and going to a more intense color type photography style.. Im not exactly sure what that means but my e-pics came out gorgeous. I have a few in my album if youd like to see.

That being said TP has been an absolute doll to work with this far. I have no doubts that my wedding photos are going to be gorgeous. Keep in mind when you look at my e-pics that i had a hundred and something fever.. and i dont look sick at all in the pics.

I booked TP

As for the photoshop - he does anywhere from 5-8 pictures depending on how advanced the graphics are. He use to choose which photos but now he lets you choose which ones you want the graphics on after you see your proofs. So in comparison to the hundreds that he takes, its not many at all, if you don't want any with graphics you don't have to have them done


I wouldn't just look at the photographers website, because they are choosing their favorites out of the millions of shots they took...and of course Thomas Paul is going to showcase his graphics because thats what makes him unique (and amazing hehe)... I'd go through the Brides Reviews on this website and research each photographer..


My personal top 2 are
Thomas Paul
and
Imagine Studios

They are pretty diff in style and I love both so its been a tough choice!!!
