Cheaper Photography

I'm looking for a photographer for our June 2013 wedding. We're hoping to spend less than 1500. I've gotten turned down so many times already for our date so im starting to panic a little bit. Pictures are important to me but we don't have a huge budget.
We're getting married outside and everything's at one location just south of the twin cities. We would love to wait to see each other till after the wedding so having 2 photographers would be super nice.
Just wandering if anyone has any suggestions or photographers you've used already. Thanks so much for you help!

We used Elisabeth Ann Photography. www.ElisabethAnnPhotography.com. She is in your price-range and has 2 photographers. Not sure if she is available, but we loved her.

I'm using Mark Palas Photography...only one photographer though.  But we are waiting to see each other until the wedding.

I used Kara Knutson. She is from above the cities but I know she travels. Her package is $1,000 so she would be under budget.  She was AWESOME! Let me know if you wanna see some of her work at my wedding. I am happy to send them to you.

HERE is her link.

A second vote for Elise from Elisabeth Ann Photography! I just got married last month, and she and her second shooter were amazing! If you'd like to see my sneak peeks, just check out her Facebook page.

You can sort by prices here.  There are over 80 options!  Bellagala just had that deal that if you book, you can get a free photo booth.  They have packages under $1000.

I went with a girl I went to high school who has her own company, Alyssa Rei Photography. We are going with her 8 hour package which is $1000. The most expensive package (as of the last time we talked to her) was the all day package with an album for $1800. She's flexible too, so if you need her for like, 9 hours, she will work with that. Her photos are amazing! Her website is under construction so the best I can do at the moment is her FB page: https://www.facebook.com/AlyssaRei

Bella was around $1000 and there's a guy who charges $125/hr.  I think his name is Timothy or something with a T anyway.  Sorry I can't remember.

I definitly second Kara Knutson! We just did our e-pics and she is so excellent to work with.

We are using Joanna Day for our June 2013 wedding and shes been great so far! She shoots with two people during the wedding day and you get a engagement session with her packages. I think her lowest is around $1800 although but I think its worth it.
