Patken - Met with them last night

All I can say is WOW about the albums we saw.
Very Very different from what we have been seeing

We were lucky enough not to deal with a sales person. They were all busy so we met with Doug.
Nice guy. Seems to know his stuff and his competiton very well.

Anyone booked with them?
Did they get a lot of information from you during the engagement shoot?
What kind of package are you getting?
TIA

thats awesome! they are wonderful! i havent had the pleasure of meeting doug but i met with his sil. shes a doll!

we got a basic package and video.

we didnt schedule an e-shoot yet. fh is working as much overtime as he can so its difficult to make any appts now. (which is why im just booking the vendors alone)

did u book?

Re: Patken - Met with them last night

we're booked with them. i dont remember who we met with since it was so long ago.

we did basic video and a magazine style photo album with some enlargements, 1 pic for every person in the bridal party, 2 photographers, 3 dvds

we had our instudio e-shoot a few months ago with Nick i think his name was.

we also added an off site engagement shoot with the photog they assigned us but we didnt schedule that yet.
our photog is Jesse (love love love her) and im not sure who our 2nd will be

Re: Patken - Met with them last night

oh and as for info at the e-shoot...nick talked to us a little bit about what we liked. John and I have a very clear picture of what we want out of our photos so we just made sure we expressed what we wanted and he told me had 2 specific photogs in mind for us and one of them was Jesse (who we wanted anyway)

Re: Patken - Met with them last night

we have not booked with them.

we need to see what else is out there.
not because we dont like them or anything like that.

we just want to educate ourselves a little bit more on.

we really are looking to make a decision this week.

not gonna lie.
they really do have a great style
