I am getting married in Cherry Hill, NJ and looking for a photographer.  Some are really pricey.  Anyone have any suggestions of a really good one, at a reasonable price?  Thanks for all your help..

    I'm using Marc Anthony Photography. Marc is really a great guy and does phenomenal work. His prices are really low and what I love is that he doesn't charge extra for enlargements. So if I want a 16x20 print off of my disc of photos it will cost around $16 not $150 like most photographers charges. He's really fair. His website is [url]www.marcanthonyphoto.com[/url]

    I was very interested in Marc Anthony, but unfortunately he is already booked for my day.  His prices were very reasonable and he was so nice on the phone. I was pretty bummed he was booked.

    My wedding date is 10/23/2010.  At first I thought that all I needed to do is book the reception venue and the church before the new year and I would be good, but it looks like I need to act quicker on other things too.  So much to do..

    Try to not get stressed over it. A lot of people may be booking things early to lock into the 2009 prices. Some vendors raise their prices each year. What I would say is even if a photog is a little over your budget it can't hurt to contact them. Our photog was over ours but he was willing to customize a package to work with us. If a photog has not gotten a lot of inquires for your date they may be willing to work something out. Here is who we are using. We had our engagement sessions with him last month and cannot say enough good things about him. http://www.alimariophoto.com

    We love our photog - Dave Humphreys.  His site is www.dhumphreys.com.  We're paying for everything and therefore on a tight budget.

    We are using Jean and Steve Photography and their office is right in Cherry Hill on Church Rd.  We just did late e-pics with him and his wife and we had a blast! Their personalities are great and so are their wedding packages! Good luck! :-)

    My sister used Images Photography out of Williamstown.  I think they were pretty reasonable and she got a lot included in her package.

    Does anyone know about Studio Blue? Apparently they're owned by Bella Pictures? They have REALLY good pricing and online, the portfolio looks great. however, you don't get to actually meet anyone in person. You put a deposit down and fill out an online survey which determines your style. then 3 months before your wedding, they match you up with someone and you get to read the photographer's bio and look at more pictures from his/her portfolio. That makes me a little nervous. And I haven't seen any reviews about them online.

    I've never heard of them, but Bella has a pretty bad reputation across all of the boards.  Not to mention once they get your phone number (somehow, anyhow) they will harass the ever living crap out of you.

    I wouldn't recommend our wedding photog to the neighbor's dog, but my TTD photog was awesome.  <a href="http://www.mirkaphotographics.com/">www.mirkaphotographics.com</a>

    We booked David Humphreys as well for our Sept 2010 wedding.  We met him and booked him a few weeks ago.  You can go to his website to see the proofs from recent weddings...www.dhumphreys.com. His packages are very reasonable.

    Isn't Bella Pictures by Bob Davis, the celebrity photographer. I assume Bella should not be bad. Anway, if you're looking for reasonable price, beautiful wedding photos, and good service, take a look at http://www.1314studio.com . They're newcomers and they have what you're looking for.
