booked photographer!

Hi ladies
I am using Moments by Heather Edmunds. She is an undiscovered photographer. I used her for my graduation pictures and I am excited to use her for our wedding photos. She is from Charlotte, but is going to travel to do engagement pics, bridal portraits and wedding day!

    I hate to say this, but having looked up Moments by Heather Edmunds I am really worried for you about your wedding photos. I can tell just looking at the photos that she doesn't use professional equipment and there are a lot of serious technical problems with her photos. It also looks like she has ZERO wedding experience. $350 for 8 hours should be your first sign that you're not hiring a professional. Just wanted to put that out there because I've read so many bad stories here about brides who regretted hiring photographers who weren't professionals. You can redo a portrait session - you can't redo your wedding.

    Yeah I know she is not a professional. She was a co-worker turned friend of mine. :D
    they all have to start somewhere. I have seen many brides on TK whom have used unprofessional service providers and the work was amazing. I trust her, but thanks for  being concerned. that's why I love TK! everyone has your back lol The planner said the same thing and my mom hired a "secondary" photographer... I don't know whom they are though but I'm excited about Heather.

    Re: the "secondary" photographer.  Be sure both photogs know that the other will be there.  Some photogs have in their contracts that there can't be another hired photographer for the same event.

    Hi,

    I just wanted to personally say to Ellfay, I appreciate the concern you had for Krystal. I also appreciate your feedback about my photos. My prices are as they are for a reason. Krystal was one of my first shoots, and I do not feel the necessity to overcharge for something I love doing. I have plenty of customers who love my work and the equipment I use to take their pictures with. No, I have not photographed a wedding at this time, but wedding photography and capturing those moments, is no different than any thing else. I do have a license, and I am now a professional and I have no problem with constructive critism, but I would appreciate any public comments to be positive, if there is something you feel I should change or you know more about, please feel free to email me at any time. hedmunds09@gmail.com

    Thanks& Have a Wonderful day!
