I live in Tacoma, WA (about 30 miles south of Seattle) and am having the hardest time finding an affordable photographer. I am on a budget and have found several photographers in my area however they are either too expensive or only offer services in my price range for 2-3 hours. Anyone know of a photographer who will do quality work and not blow my budget out of the water????

    That depends on your definition of affordable... what is your budget? The starting range for most professionals is between $1500-5000, depending on the area.

    I am not sure what you are considering to blow your "budget out of the water" but I know my prices are very reasonable and I offer unlimited day-of coverage and you keep the digital files.
     

    or give me a call and we can discuss your big day.

    Sorry dear, photographers have A LOT of expenses which means they're prices will be high! You need to prioritize... do you want to remember your wedding day for the rest of your life through those photos or do you want a really awesome cake that will just be eaten, or a dress that will just get hung in the closet after wearing it for one day, or flowers that die! Think of it as an investment... it seems like a lot of money but after you divide that by 50 years of marriage it is not a lot at all. Your children and grandchildren will see these picture and realize how happy you two were and are!

    Try a local college with a photog dept...many of these kids are professionals in training and would be happy to do it for like $500 for the chance to use your stuff in their portfolio. Haven't booked mine yet but that's the route i'm taking...hope it helps..
