Photographer help

So, I started looking at photographers this wknd..

So far I've been to:

Patken (wasn't crazy about)
Perceptions (LOVED, but was too pricey for me)
DUET (great deal)
Rendevous (not crazy about)

So, I was wondering if ppl can offer some more suggestions.

My only hang up with Duet was that I've been told I should feel SUPER comfortable with my photog and have a great rapport with them...and being that I have to sign a contract before I meet/pick a photog worries me...
Can anyone comment on how their photog are to work with?

Any other photog suggestions? Im looking for a great package (e-session, parent albums, proofs etc) under 5k...am I dreaming?

Sent you FM re: Proline

sorry you didnt like patken

my fsil is using deja vu
she loved the work and the package

I'm using Michael O'Neill - defintiely good packages under 5k
FM me if you want more info!

I am using DUET...... 5 other couples that I know who are getting married or are married already are using them. I have seen their work and fell in love with it. I am using Alberto....... I was also able to look at the other photographers albums when I was there so I was able to get a better idea.

FM me for more info

ALDO is also awesome

I am using Duet! When you do your engagement session, that is a great time to get to know and establish a relationship with your photographer.

Sorry, I have no other suggestions as Duet are the only ones I met with

You have an FM

I didn't meet with any of those, so I can't really help you. But, if you're looking for photo and video, I met with Proline and Silverfox and really liked them both. I can FM you the info if you'd like.

If you're just looking for a photographer, then I'd recommend J'Adore Love. They are so great, and willing to work within your budget. FM if you want that info too

hi! im using KIM JIN HONG photo studios, there not a vendor on here but the were the first photographer i saw at a bridal showcase and yet the last place i went to look at for prices...and i ended up booking them. theyre awesome, their photos are beautiful, their video is like something ive never seen b4 and their prices arent too bad either...thy have several pkgs to choose from, im paying between 7-8k but im getting two engagement shoots (i formal and 1 casual), 2 photographers (day of), 2 videographers (day of) and for my albums:
2-11X14 albums (1 for engagement pics and 1 for wedding day pics) -i downgraded these albums from 12X17 books to save money...
2-5X7 parent albums -i also downgraded from 8X10 books to save money..
3-designed posterboards...
2-20X24 pics
3-dvds fully edited w/ chapters
100-flush photo thank u's


u should def check them out, their website is kjhstudio.com they are located in fort lee new jersey, which for us was only a 25 min drive (well worth it) u pay less tax on the overall pkg becaus jersey is 7% and ny is 8.625% ad they give u A LOT of bang for ur buck!

i also checked out these photographers b4 booking with KJH...

Cassarino-didnt feel like the quality was there for the prices they were charging..

patken-good quality, high prices and they didnt give u alot in their pkgs

duet-great pkg and prices...quality not exactly what i was looking for..

ADA-ridiculously pricey and didnt give u alot in ur pkg

shewood triart- the WORST when it comes to pricey!!! but quality was awesome! lets just say i got quoted at 14k and i wasnt getting nearly as much as im getting with KJH.

good luck on ur hunt!
