J O V O N or Patken

Although I have been a seriel lurker on this site for the last couple of months-- this is my first actual post!! I have officially broken the seal

I am trying to decide between Patken and
J O V O N for our wedding pics. They are both offering us similar prices for similar packages.

I havent heard a bad think about Patken but have heard that their pictures are standard in the sense that they take the same pictures for everyones wedding (no offense to anyone using patken, as I have seen their pics and love them!).
I have heard great things about J o v O N and have been told that they are consdiered 'high end' -- The FH loved their work as well, however, I have also read reviews where people were un happy with their customer service.
Problem is there are no recent reviews, so I am hopeing someone can shed some light!

thanks!!

Btw does anyone know why the name does not come up on the boards when you type the name as it shoudl be.. without the spaces in between the letter.?

J O V O N The best to work with from day one!! I've posted on here soooooo many times raving about them.

The albums are breathtaking along with the black and white pics! All of our friends say, 'it looks like a winer wonderland excep in B & W.'

I booked with J O V O N as my RH recommended them. I was very happy with them when I went for my first meeting. So far they have been great with questions and such. I never looked at Patken so I can't speak to them. But FM me if you want to know who I dealt with at J O V O N. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Re: J O V O N or Patken

my sister used J O V O N and she paid alot of money but for her she feels it was worth every penny. Her pictures are great!
She used Telmo

. I didnt want to spend that much and went with Duet.

I booked with Patken. I've seen they're work and think they're great. I haven't heard much about
J O V O N, so I can't say.

Re: J O V O N or Patken

haven't heard much about Patken.
J.o.v.o.n. did out photos and they came out AMAZING!!!! highly recommended! FM if you have questions.

Ditto on TELMO- he's a bunch of fun and takes great photos. We were supposed to have David but he got injured the evening prior and we had T instead and he was awesome! David did our engagement photos and they came out fantastic! I don't think you can go wrong with J.o.v.o.n for Photos.

There's a couple Pro pictures in my album, I'll try to upload some more soon.
