I am interested in possibly booking them but I won't get the opportunity to go into their office since I now live in Florida. I seem to like their work online but not sure if it's what is true to real life. If anyone has used them before and can give me a review that would be great. If anyone else has any other photographer reccomendations like them that would be great also...I like the contemporary look....well TIA....
If you do book Patken , I would request Jessie, She's great! She talks with you before the wedding to get a feeling of your style. I'll try to put in a link of some of our pics! http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2112836&id=26306994 http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2112866&id=26306994
were using them, and we just took our epics-which came out amazinggggg...i know that they are a large company, but the overall experience with the photos themselves is wonderful
My FSIL used them as well as her husband's 6 other family members which included siblings & cousins..All they do is rave about Patken. I guess it depends who you deal with, I did not find them pushy at all..I could honeslty feel confident telling you to book them even though you have not met with them. Pictures to me are the most important thing to have after it's all over & they just do a phenominal job capturing the day & making eveyone look amazing...I know I am biased but I look at other photographers & videographers work that I've seen & they are very good in their own way & style but no one compares to Patken in my eyes ...BTW we're using Jessie too!
Yes you get to pick your photographer & that's why it pays to book early so you get who you want. I feel that we are getting alot for our $. You get E-Pics & Save the dates included. Everything else is to what package you want. We added things & took things away to make the price right for what we were willing to spend.
I booked them for my wedding. They have been amazing so far. Also my good friend used them for her wedding and she raved about how wonderful they were and the photos came out excellent
I have also booked with Patken. We LOVE them. They have done numerous friends' weddings and not a single one has had a complaint. I def. Recommend them. I did not find them pushy at all..... maybe it was an off day.
