I have almost made my photgrapher decsion. I really like photjournalistic style.
But if I don't add a traditional photographer, what will I be missing?

Just the lined up shots of out BP & Parents.
or would we even skip the whole going to a park or someplace like that. Would they take candid shots there if we just had a Photojournalist, or would they meet just meet us at the reception.

I'm afraid if I have 2 photographers they will just be in the way at the reception.

What does the traditional one do at the reception?

Thanks everyone.
September2004, I don't want those romantic-blurry shots either.
I'm going to try & call in a little bit.

Yes, my sugestion is to go with a photographer that does both. I'm using Steve from Patken and he does both. He also takes a lot of proofs so you will have many pics of each style to choose from. Good luck in your decision.

I agree. I am using Doug from Patken. Patken does both. Have you seen their work?
