Affordable Photographers

My wedding is not until May 2011, but I'm looking for suggestions for affordable photographers.  We are on a budget and would like to spend under $1500 but still get beautiful photos at possibly more than one location.  Any suggestions would help.  Thanks!

    I have been looking at LiveLaughLove Fotography. It's two friends who have been doing weddings for about a year and a half. I've meet with them and the seem legit but they don't have a "studio" which makes me a little leary. I'm actually going to see if any Knotties have used them. They are affordable though. Their website is livelaughlovefotography.com

    That will be easily done!!! I have two recommendations! Stephanie Ghers Photography out of Festus, MO. I met with her and looked at her work. She is very nice and takes excellent pictures. You will see that her prices are very competitive and it is very good work. Here is her website: http://www.gehrsphotography.com

    The photographer my fiance chose to go with is out of Edwardsville, IL. His name is Darin Hart of dearhart photography. Darin is very energetic and will throw in free prints here and there. He is super easy to work with and gives you all of the proofs in a proof album without the word proof written across them. He also only requires you to make an order with him of whatever size and then gives you a high res CD of all of the images.
    His website is: http://www.dearhartphoto.com/home/Home.html

    Hope this helps!!!

    The photographer that I used for my engagement pics did a great job and she was really affordable.  I loved my pictures, and she was great to work with.  Her name is Samantha Kirrage.  Here is her facebook page http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/Bridgeton-MO/Samantha-Kirrage-Photography/197991870371?ref=ts
    There are some of my engagment pics on it, and you can see some the weddings she has done.

    We used April & Liberty with www.enchantedmemoriesforyou.com They were awesome to work with & we got unlimited time, unlimited locations, and a large photo package (with CD, book, etc...) for well under your budget!  Some of our pictures are now on their blog and I love them!

    Try Amy Pflasterer too.  She was within your price range for 8 hours and the rights of reproduction to our photos.
