photographer?

Any of you ladies out there love (or hate) your photographers?  I'd like to have the rights to the photos -- I wanted someone like Artistic Photography but they are already booked for my date.  Any suggestions would be great!

    I'm going with William Baumgardner in Muscatine. I was looking for more of a candid, photojournalistic photographer and  thought his pictures on the website looked great. We talked with him and told him that what was important to us was the rights on a CD, an engagement session and 8 hours on the day of. We haven't gotten our e-pics taken yet so we are excited to see how they come out.

    I would suggest Melanie Bishop with Best Days Photography. She used to be tied with MI Studios. She is excellent and very artistic as I also seriously looked at Artistic Photography. She took all of the photos on MI Studio's website, her e-mail is melanie at bestdaysphoto dot com.

    Melanie Bishop with Best Days Photography.  She just did our wedding on May 1 and her work is amazing.
