picking a photographer. it's so hard.

I finally got it narrowed down to 4 out of all the photographers I saw. now I can't decide which one! so give opinions, how they were to you, or what you've heard about them, etc, etc.

we've got it down to

it's so hard deciding. I have no idea who to pick. I love them all. how did everyone finally decide on their photographer?

I have seen sherwoods work and it is real good, they take great pics

F I N E A R T-i had spoken to them at a bridal show in october, the guy was real nice and had so many ideas and spoke to me for a while...i saw a few of his albums and they were gorgeous.

I dont know about creative

Jovon-ive heard good things about.

basically look at which photographers pics really blew you away, had the style you wanted for your pics...how did you get along with them bc that is important. Also price, which one is within your budget, which package you like best.

Picking a photographer was worse than picking a RH! The only one I've seen on that list is sherwood triart, I liked them but they were way out of our budget. I'd recommend my photographer but I don't want to confuse you anymore than you already are.

I chose based on quality and also took into consideration price as well. I originally wanted Franklin Square Photographers (they really blew me and FH away) but unfortunately they were really out of our budget.
We found that one of the house vendors for Russo's (Tony Ferrari Photographers) was just as good as Franklin Square, but at a price in our budget.

I'd say that the Photographer/Videographer as well as the DJ are the hardest things to choose as of yet for us. We had three kinda 'no brainers' so far, the hall, florist, and who we want to marry us..lol

all these are around the same price range, which makes deciding even harder. I love Sherwood Triart's work. while we were just looking at halls I saw his work at the INN in New hyde park. I was like wow I want that photographer. but than I met the other 3, and now it's so hard to decide. ******** is so nice, the guy was like let me shoot your wedding you two are so different, I need something new lol.

I saw like 15 reception halls before going with the 2nd one I had seen. it was much much easier than picking a photographer, definately. we have seen over 20 photographers probably. all these photographers are around the same prices as each other, which makes it 20x harder to choose.

all the photographers are about the same price, I think sherwood might be the mosto though. it makes it harder to choose. we have to go back to creative because I think they just wrote starting prices for us.

well who did you get the best feeling with...Who made you feel more comfortable, someone who doesn't care to just book another wedding, but wants to take beautiful pics of your wedding and seem like they care. Which photographers pics really stood out for you...See for me when i was searching for photographers and looked at their work, i would say oh these are nice pics, then i would look at a bunch of others and same thing ok they're all nice, but then i found out about angelica and for me it was like WOW and they really stood out. Which one stand out in your mind the most.
