Florida-West Coast

Hello, please help with selecting a photographer

Hello, I'm Stacey, i will be getting married in April, and  I'm just starting to look for a photographer in Sarasota/Bradenton area.
I have looked at 5 local photographers but i would love to know if anyone used any of them. Any opinions about their work or experience working with them would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry if this is a long list

    Hi there!

    I've not heard of any of them, but that doesn't mean that other girls haven't. Have you looked outside of the Sarasota Area as well. There are a lot of awesome photographers in the Bay Area in general. 

    A loot of Girls like: 
    Jason Angelini
    Stephanie A Smith

    I'm using Kerri McConnell

    There are tons! Have fun! Good luck!

    Sorry but I have never heard of any of them but their prices seem awesome! I am actually using a Sarasota photographer - Mandy and Me Studio. They are extremely nice couple and reasonably priced. A lot of the girls in here like Jason Angelini and he's very reasonably priced. Good luck on the search! We went through probably 20 photographers before we found ours but my FI was really picky! hahaha

    We're actually going to be using Marina with In true colors. We already did engagement with her and we had a blast. You can check her blog for our e-photos http://intruecolors.com/blog/?p=532
    I'm in OH, so i don't know about any of the photographers in FL, we just got lucky :)

    I haven't heard of any on your list. As others have said, Jason is pretty popular on this board. We are using Alicia from Pure Emotions. She's really responsive and also very talented. Her packages include 2 photographers and she edits each picture individually. Here is her website:  http://www.pureemotionsphotography.com/

    Good luck:)

    We will be using In True Colors photography, we got a good deal with free engagement, so far we've been happy with our e-pictures and communication. I'll say call them all and pick the one that you're happy with, meet with them and then decide.

    Oh wow, we are using In True colors too, i'm glad i'm not the only one. Yipee!!! I think Marina is fantastic and fun, very down to earth and seems to care.
    I did look into few of those you've mentioned, wasn't much impressed with their work, but you need to figure out what you want and what you like. Have fun!
