Which photographer

I am confused with which photographer to use
Michael O'Neil or Velvet Studio, I like both of their pictures but I like the layout of Michael O'Neil's pictures better then the layout of Velvet, however with Velvet we are getting more for our money.

In both studio's the owner would be shotting my wedding.

Both are the same price the differences are:

Michael O'Neil
1)doesn't use templates (for the digital book)
2) Michael O'Neil changes things for example you have a pimple it's gone, the sky is gray he makes it sunny all of the work is done in his studio
3) He does both photo journalist's pictures & Traditional w/ assistant
4) Charging tax


Velvet Studio
1) I am getting more photo's 90 opposed to 70
2) There is a separate person shooting Photo journalist pictures, but no assistant.
3) uses templates for the digital book.
4) No tax for cash

VELVET STUDIO-GREAT DEAL ON NO TAX IS WAY TO GO. ALSO YOU HAVE TO GO WITH THE ONE THAT YOU THINK YOU WANT TO GO WITH...

We're using Velvet, so i'm biased!!

We recently took our e-pics and got them back on a CD w/in 2 days... plus they came out amazing. Take a look: Our e-pics!

But, i haven't seen the other photog's work, so only you can know which one you like better!

I agree, forget the cost, go with who's style you like best and who you feel most comfortable with (you'll be with them all day long!).

Yeah, and at the end.... the pics are all you have! Your dj goes home, flowers die, but the pics you will have forever!!

Re: Which photographer

Thanks for all of your help.

I am still not sure but I think I am going to go with Velvet because I just can't see how one photographer is going to do both Traditional and Photojurnolist pictures. I feel like Michael O'Neil just can't capture the right moments that way.

I wouldn't worry two much about one photographer vs two. I will be having one photographer and her asst and I felt her work is better then a lot of places that used two. Its quality not quantity. You just need a good eye to capture the moments.

I also wouldn't worry about the cost. I was able to get the tax waived which saved me over 500 bc I paid cash which was nice but didn't influence my decision. Good luck.
