wow she wasn't kidding about looking into photographers asap. She's a great girl, too bad, don't worry we have a whole sorority about to be getting married, I am sure we can keep you busy in SD.

I know I asked you about the 31st of March? What about sometime during that first week of april, maybe if I can lose some weight I can do those boudior (spelling?) photos, but really I just want some beachy pics of my mom and me for her birthday and my grandma's birthday. I can e-mail you my exact plans for when I will be there.

leigh - nope, we just talked the once when i put my retainer down! but i do agree, you want to click with your photographer. when i was emailing around just trying to find out who was available for my date, i even felt i got a good feel for people just from their initial responses.

good luck christine! you'll find someone that you'll be happy with - just go with your gut feel! there are many great photographers out there - you'll end up with one of them!

I totally agree with getting a feel for your photographer. I emailed Juan to ask about his availability, and he called me back within like 10 minutes. From Mexico! I was really impressed. He answered all my questions, gave me some recommendations for sites to visit, and believe it or not, referred me to this forum. I really felt like he was someone who went "above and beyond" after my conversation with him.
So, it's his fault that I'm now addicted to this website! lol

Christine, I think Leigh has given you a great recommendation. Liz's website looks great, I like her style, and her prices seems pretty standard. I can't wait to hear what you decide!

Just wanted to let everyone know, I finally decided on Liz, I am really excited and feel so happy to have this off my to-do list.
Thank you for all your help through this process, it means so much to me.
