FH and I started visiting photographers today...ugh!
Anyone know anything about *************'s Photography in Roslyn Heights? They are recommended by my RH, but I haven't seen much about them here. The stuff we saw in the studio was BEAUTIFUL, but they are tres expensive! Any comments/experiences good or bad is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Why did it edit out the name of the company when I posted?

Re: *************'s Photography
They are not a vendor, so I was thinking that was it, but how could they block everyone who wasn't. Maybe because it looks like a proper name and you're not allowed to post first & last names??

Re: *************'s Photography
that has happened w/ my photog before too... blue daisy. not all non-vendors are blocked, thats the weird part. why certain ones?
maybe just the ones they know about that arent vendors w/ them, they block so their own vendors get more business.

I heard really good things about **************. My co-workers daughter used them and her proofs were gorgeous!

Re: *************'s Photography
I heard that the vendors that are blocked out are vendors that used to be vendors with the website. It could be a lie but that it was someone told me

Re: *************'s Photography
My reception hall recommends them too and my fiance and I checked them out first. I LOVED their work and I thought we would book them. Then I found out that they had a few cases on the Better Business Bureau. I have also heard their customer service is not too great. Some one told me they felt lied to because the price they got that was supposed to include everything then went up a lot because they started charging them extra for things like enlarging photos for a full page in their album. Things like that. Another thing that I didn't like was that they use film. While I almost think their use of film might be why I like their pictures better, I think they might be less willing to just snap away and maybe we'll miss out on some pictures. Also, since its not digital, you can't really get a disc of all your proofs.
I don't know I still really love their work best. Now every other photographer we've gone too hasn't really stood out to me because I still keep thinking about ************** work. So we still havn't picked a photographer yet.
Good Luck to you though!

My sister used them last May and we are using them for our wedding in July. They do now also take digital pictures along with the film. I know they have some issues on BBB but we heard about that after we booked them. I know a few people who used them and their pictures all came out beautiful. I'm just crossing my fingers that ours do too!

I'm sure your pictures will be amazing...I don't think you can doubt that at all! We are definately still considering them too even though we have heard some not so great things because, well we've seen like 6 or 7 other photographers and overall I don't think they compare to **************. I just really loved their work.
And I wasn't trying to offend at all, I hope I didn't. Cause like I said even if their customer service isn't great, I don't think you need to worry about the pictures at all! Those will be beautiful.
Also, regarding the BBB - you never know the customers either. You can't say for sure who was right/wrong unless you know the whole story. I hope you have a great experience overall!
Oh and I didn't know they also shoot digital. I don't think they mentioned that to be but good to know. Thanks!

LIW blocked out the name becasue the vendors had a few cases on the Better Business Bureau. So If you try to type a name here and don't sshow up, you should def. check out the Better Business Bureau.

Re: *************'s Photography
it's not vendors who have bbb complaints, it's vendors who have had/caused problems here on liw.
and to the people who say 'well, you never know with the customers on bbb complaints...' I mean, it's your choice and your money, but I would NEVER use a company who has a complaint on there. There are so many great vendors out there - why risk it? Most of the time, if there's one person with a registered complaint, there are ten more out there who had complaints but didn't bother or even know to register them. It's not worth it, in my opinion.
