Honestly, the photography prceing is all over the place from pretty low to really expensive. It really depends on who you go with. The two photographers listed in this thread a very reasonably priced. I'm going with Elizabeth Madina (hopefully) who is on the low side of very expensive, if that makes sense.

I'm still considering Elizabeth Medina as well, I understand exactly what you meant Jackie about the low side of expensive, she's pretty much my limit, and that may be stretching it. She does have my date available and I really need to make a decision soon before everyone is booked!

Make sure you book as soon as you can! Ann (akh) was hesitant on booking and then when she did Elizabeth was allready booked. Ofcourse she ended up with either Sol or Leigh as her photographer which they are both brilliant so its not like she lost out at the end, but price wise I believe they are a bit more expensive.

YES YES YES! I couldn't make up my mind and ended up losing Elizabeth Medina. In the end I am happy with how things worked out, I found another photographer - Leigh Miller - who is amazing, but still, I may not have been so lucky! If you do know who you want to go with, I'd book them as soon as you can. Elizabeth Medina would be a great choice.

Thanks Ann & Jackie, I know I need to get my butt in gear, I should just book her and get one thing off my list. I haven't had any luck finding anyone else that I really really like and can afford and Elizabeth is very good. I'll have to talk to Steve tonight and TELL him this is who we're going with, haha!

That's what I finally did, kind of. I made a list of a handful of photographers that were available for our date, then sat down with Paul and we ranked them together. We first did this w/o looking at price or packages - that way we knew we were only looking at what we liked w/o price affecting our opinion. After they were ranked, then we looked at prices and packages for our top 3 or 5 and made a decision. Once Paul saw the differences between some of the photographers, he definitely decided it was worth it to pay a little more.
