need a high end ($$$) photographer for my friend

my friend is getting married and is spending $$$

she wants a $$$ photographer--i recommended angelica glass and natasha staszak so far.

Our photographer was Peter Jacobsen - amazing and SO nice! www.pjphoto.net. I think he's in the 3-4K range.

If you want high end, here are the ones I looked into but could never in a million years afford:

Terry Gruber - celebrity photographer, did Melissa Rivers and Catherine Zeta-Jones weddings. Fees start at 20-25K without prints and albums.

Alfonse Pagano - truly artistic and a unique eye.

Willi Wong - loved him and if my budget had been bigger, I would have hired him for sure. Starts at 5K.

Hope this helps!

I would look into Imagine Studios or Verdi.... Both take great pictures but were out of my budget!!

bill wang

he did a phenomenal job at our wedding....for what we paid [we booked him freelance though another company], he got ripped off!

Jovon is expensive but totally worth it. I am using Jovon and they are definitely my high end vendor.
They do work with every budget.
Jovon did Joey Fatone's wedding (N'SYNC)

They are amazing!!!
