Yay!!! We met with a photographer last Wednesday & really liked her.  We had a chat last night & looked at some others online & decided we don't need to look any further!  So we made the deposit today :)

And so Stephanie Jones is going to be the photographer for our wedding! WOO HOO!

A lot of the photographers that we found weren't really the style we wanted or they were trying to charge $6000 for a package which is just crazy. We love her style & her prices are amazing! She only does 4 weddings a month & only 1 wedding a weekend which was something really important to us. And she is going to do our e-pics for free sometime around April!

Here's her site: clicky

My favorite photo of hers:

    Her pictures are gorgeous! So lucky you found/are going to have such a great photographer. One huge thing off the list for you!!

    P.S.- I am super obsessed with photos in general, but that one you posted with the couple under the really old trees, in this post, is absolutely incredible. I can't wait to see how your wedding pictures turn out!

    Thanks gals! I'm sooooo excited! Funny enough I saw that picture on a venue's website back when we were searching for that. The other day I accidentally came across it again & sort of took that as a sign haha

    So pretty! I looked at her site- she looks awesome!

    Thanks for giving me the big kick in the butt to go find a photog when we have 9 months left... better get searching if you already got one so far in advance!

    Congrats on checking that off the list :)  I'd check out the website but my internet is being really annoying lately and would probably crash my laptop in the attempt.

    Thanks everyone!!

    Hope, I know, we have a while to go still.  I like the pace that we're researching & booking right now though. I don't feel overwhelmed & these are things I don't see us changing our minds about KWIM?   NJ is soooooo expensive for everything unfortunately so I thought it'd be a little difficult finding someone in our budget & that does the style we prefer which is why we started early.  I think we're going to take a break now until after the holidays though!

    I know what you mean! With our first wedding date we planned way in advance. This one, I just don't care anymore. So I'm a bit behind the game with booking photogs. Booking some things early is great if  you want to get the best deal!

    Congrats on getting stuff done. That's what we did and now we only have a couple things to worry about and we have just under a year.

    Your photog looks awesome. Our photographer is one of the big things I'm excited about, I can't wait to shoot our engagement photos with her.

    Swhite: I really want to try and DIY the paper stuff for the wedding & the centerpieces also but I'm really the least crafty/creative person on the planet so I figure in order to get it right & make it look good I should probably start early. Once the DJ is booked I'll probably be devoting all of my time to that stuff!! When are you guys doing your e-pics? 

    Peek: thank you!!!!

    <div>Probably in the Spring. FI doesn't want to have winter pics, but I think they would be fun. I'm hoping the earlier the better so we can use them for our save the dates.</div>
