  Hi

  
  

  This was a hard thing for me to pick. I had started looking and getting quotes from photographers and than at a bridal fair I bought an "engagement photo package" because it was a good deal. Figured I would let him take the pictures and if I liked him would book (thought he was a little high with the pricing). Jack put us at ease and we had a blast with the photo shoot....within 3 days I had 5 photos to look at. We had coffee with him and saw more of his work....I fell in love and we booked him that night.

  
  

  It really is a gut decision. I knew that photos were an important thing for me. Here is the link to his website: http://www.jackarentphoto.com/. He has a facebook page too.

  I got a list from my venue as to who they recommended--I figured I wanted someone who was familiar with the site and would work well with our coordinator.  I narrowed down to a top 3 based off website and coordinator recommendation. I happened to meet them at a bridal faire.  From there I knocked out one because they were really cocky and not personal at all.  I went with #2--liked their quote and loved the photographer when my husband and I met him (few weeks after the bridal fair).  He was able to create a picture in our mind of exactly how our day was going to go and I could tell we were in good hands.  He by far surpassed our expectations day of too! 
  
  I personally gave much more thought into the Photographer since the product was something I plan on having forever.  It was important to find someone who I was going to work well with and could deliver great photo's (and at a reasonable price).  You are going to come across a lot of great websites and a lot of great photographers, but find the one that you mesh with!  It will be worth it in the end.
