Trying to decide on an engagement session

I'm trying to decide on a photographer for my engagement photos.  Unfortunately my photographer isn't available when I'll be home in New Orleans, so I am considering these.

I'd love to hear your thoughts or any experiences you may have had with them.

My photographer Maile Lani recommended Elizabeth Ray Photography: http://erayphoto.com/

Am also considering Greer G Photography: http://www.greergphotography.com/

I really want to hire Magnolia Pair, but am uncomfortable with the terms of their contract.  You have to buy all of the prints through them and they are rather expensive.  They did tell me that they would give me a disc of 30 low resolution photos that I could share online.  Is this a dealbreaker?

The other photographers give you the disc and rights to print what you want at the wedding.  I likely won't even get that many prints made, but for some reason it still bothers me.

    Hey there-- I don't have any experience with either but I took a look at both and Eray seems like more of a similar feel to Magnolia than Greer.

    Meh.  One of the things I looked for in a photographer was the CD of high res images because I'm paranoid of losing prints (Katrina thing haha).  Because of that, my instinct would be to go with the other options.

    Good luck!
