Has anyone used Patkens? Specifically a photographer named Vinnie. If so, what do you think?
Just about 75 % of patken brides on here had vinnie and he does amazing work. Do a search on the review board to see specifically.
thank you. I'll take look on the review board.
since I'm a newbie at this website, can you tell me how to get to the review board. thanks
Go to the drop down list under Select A Forum and go to Bride's Review OR better yet to a word search for Patken by clicking on Search right above the same Select A Forum box
I am a alitte bit of photography snob and wasnt really fond of Patken. I just think they may be cheesy. Also, when you go in they show you a bunch of books (who happen to be done by Doug, the owner who charges an add'l $2K). I heard Vinny is good too, but looking at all their other books...I was not impressed. They have a team of 12 photographers and they pretty much choose one for you. How much are you looking to spend? I am using Katie Lyman, she is awesome to work with and does amazing work.
We booked Patken for our wedding but didn't pick a specific photographer. They have been really easy to work with so far. They did my e-pics (in my album) and I'm pretty confident that they'll do a wonderful job on my wedding.

i had vinny for part of my wedding and loved his pictures!!!!
I've used Patken and they were my favorite vendor! Check out my review! Vinnie wasn't my photographer but I know there are a lot of brides who did if you search the review board
we're booked with patken, and we chose steve to do our pics. if you know what photographer you want, they will assign them to you as long as they're not already booked for the day. i agree, for the prices vs. quality, patken is great. if i had an unlimited budget, i may booked elsewhere, but so far we're pleased with them. steve did our epics, and just in the 10 min we worked with him, we liked him, and the pics came out great. anyone who can make FH smile easily for the camera is good for me!
We are using Patken, and know a bunch of other people/family members that have used them and their pics are great! I think they were very reasonably priced for what you get in the package.
