Ok, maybe not every photographer, but it sure seems like it.
I have e-mailed 9 photographers in the past day, 4 of which I've already heard back from and are booked! (not to mention the 4 or so other photographers I've e-mailed in the past few weeks who are already booked). I seriously give up.
Rant over.

That sucks!!!
I could recommend mine, Katie Hall, I though her pictures were good, although I was upset that she arrived 30 mins late.

Our date is 9/17. I know September is popular, but my thinking was that everyone was booking up the weekend before mine (9/10/11) and I wouldn't have a problem. Guess not!
The booked photographers are: Joseph Prezioso, Kelly Dillon, Molly Bergeron, Melissa DeShamps, Strut, Rachel Kate...the list goes on. I still have 5 photographers I'm waiting to hear back from. So I guess not all is lost.
We are trying to keep our budget at or under $4k. And thanks for the recs, I will look into them.

I loved her stuff and I contacted her but she's booked!!
We worked with Kate at k. Photographie for our RD photos. She did an awesome job. Definitely would recommend her for wedding photos since I've kept up with her blog since my wedding and I'm always impressed with her wedding posts.

Another photographer I used was Rachel Hadiashar at mergeweddings.com. She did my b-pics and also some e-pics (see e-pics in bio, there's also some by Scott there). She took a hiatus from weddings this past year to travel, but I think she's back and booking. Here's her website:

We're married!
My Bio
FI is a photographer, so some of them he automatically discarded based on their portfolios as not worth the money for the level of skill they possess, but we narrowed the list down to 5 or 6 of them.....all who know how to actually change the settings on their cameras for indoor/outdoor exposures and all for under $1500.
Check them out!
My hubby & I rock the frock.

Thought all 3 of them did a fantastic job. If I had to pick a favorite it would be Jeff Turner (Black Thumb Studio). He and his assitant George are incredible to work with! Good luck!
