Recs for Quality Photographer Under $5K?

ErykaVincent · June 2010

We are looking for a photographer who will do engagement and wedding photos for under $5K. (We don't need an album...but would like the photographer to go through and touch things up if need be)

We would love a more "photojournalistic" approach. We are getting married at the Hard Rock hotel in the Gaslamp district in San Diego next summer. Any help would be appreciated!!!

Must check out Josh Elliott from Josh Elliott Studios. He is absolutely amazing with light and was recently featured on Green Wedding Shoes!

Definitely check out our photographer: SoCalSunshine Productions. They are well under your budget and do amazing work! www.socalsunshine.com

That is actually a big budget for photography so you can definitely afford somebody with high quality work and plenty of experience.

My favorite photographer is Jasmine Star (jasmine-star.com, jasminestarblog.com). I don't know if she has any packages in that price range but she's definitely worth looking into. I think her style will be what you're looking for!

Good luck

Carly Daniel at carlydaniel.com. She was very good - photojournalistic and reasonable priced.

I thoroughly second KTAgee's recommendation. We're using Troy Grover also and absolutely love him and his wife. Their photos are amazing and they're super easy to work with.

you seriously need to check these guys out.... they're a 2 photog team, plenty of experience, hip, friendly, licensed, and insured. Also within your budget.

I was really happy with our photographer, Natalie Williams. She's a newer photographer, but really great. www.nataliewilliamsblog.com.

Andre Niesing. His packages start at $3,900 and include engagement photography. He's shooting my wedding up in Northern California. His photos are INCREDIBLE!
