proline photoagraphy

Has anyone used them? and what did you think of them? it is SOOOO hard to find a photographer! I feel like there are so many and I just dont know what to look for.
THANKS!

I didn't, I only met with Ed, the owner. But you do get an engagement session, so you might get to meet with them then. Or if you specifically request to meet with them.

I didn't ask because I trust Ed. He's a long time friend of my sister's and grew up around the block from me. So he knows to give me the best of the best

I was less than impressed when I met with ProLine a few years ago. I met with a representative, NOT a photographer, and they had books scattered on the table. I saw one I liked and I asked which photographer had shot it and they said 'I don't know, all of our photographers do great work'

They seem to view their photogrpahers as interchangeable and in fact the albums all seemed to be filled with the same shots. I feel that while it's great to have a reputable company behind you, photographers are NOT interchangeable. I wanted to have a photographer who is a creative person and an artist, not someone with a shot list who is trying to fit into the company's aesthetic, which is basically what they told me they have at ProLine.

I've heard great things at ProLine and they are very consistent and they do good work, but it wasn't for me. I went with Artisan. I wanted to hire an individual whose work, style and personality fit my own, not a brand, and that's what i feel I'm getting with Chuck.
