Just started looking for a photographer and videographer

I have just started my search for my photo and video. I have already visited Patken, and am making appts for Dan Wagner, Perceptions, and Thomas Paul.

I liked Patken's work, but am looking for a package that includes more pictures in the bride and grooms album. Patken only offered 30 in the album and to add 20 more pictures was $600!

Does anyone know of any other places I should go?

I am trying to get my photo and video for no more than $5K.

Thanks for your help.

Go see George from Right Angle Studios. He is a vendor on here. His work and personality are amazing!!! He is very flexible with his packages and he will help you stay within a budget. Good Luck, Fm me if you want any additional information about him.

You can't go wrong with Dan Wagner!!!

Check this out --- LINK TO DAN'S BLOG!!!!!! Dan photographed a wedding on Friday and he already has photos and gallery link on his blog. The groom's family is Swedish and Dan even put a Swedish translation on his blog. How sweet is that?

Mine isn't a vendor on here, but I HIGHLY reccomend him... Celestrial Photo / Video...

http://www.celestialphoto.com/

Check out his above website...He'll give you ALL the advise to ask the photographers even if you don't use him! Like, how come they get paid BEFORE you see their work..? I am paying 4500 all together... and I'm sooo satisifed with him! Read his page.... he'll teach you TONS!

Patken is a little pricey, but I love their work! Do a search to see the past brides, I guarantee that you will love it! I got an awesome package with them....less than 5K for photo and video, and they will be with me for the whole entire day..(2hrs before the ceremony till I say they can leave!)

Re: Just started looking for a photographer and videographer

I met with 4 photographers- all independent- all amazing! -cannot go wrong with any of them and all very reasoable-I did a lot of research before going as had a specific budget-Art-istic Images (not a LIW vendor), Dan Wagner and Laura Ryan, and TP.

All are SUPER nice and Talented. It was a very tough decision.

I think you could go with any of them and do video with your budget or sl over. (TP and Dan Wagner offer Video)

Art-istic Images works in the sam ebuilding as Wedding Cinema- I would have booked them if they were not already booked- you get a discount for booking more than one of their people.
