Inexpensive Photog in greater MKE

Leigh5124 · March 2011

It's been a few years since my wedding (almost 3!) but my SIL just got engaged and I am helping her plan her wedding.

I am trying to find an inexpensive (<$2,000, around $1,000 would be even better) photographer for her to use. The wedding will be in the Oconomowoc area, so someone in the MKE area.
I would just suggest my photog; Mia's Photo's; but she is a bit out of their price range.
TIA! Hopefully no one minds having an old maried hag around for a bit!

Check out Kayla Richards! She photographed my wedding in September and we loved her work. We had her services for over 10 hours and got about 900 shots, a coffee table style wedding album, rights to all of our photos for reproduction and some additional prints for under $2000.
She is based out of Beaver Dam but will travel to Oconomowoc for a nominal charge.

Her availability fills up quickly!

Also, if you look a few posts down there are a ton of people who asked the same question.

We are using Mia Stevens and she's been amazing.

You can also get awesome deals by attending wedding shows. (we got $900 off)

Check out Lindsay Gilkay: http://www.lindsaygilkayphotography.com/

She started out a few years ago so she is VERY affordable, but her work is FANTASTIC! She's actually myfiance's best friend's wife, which sucks because I would have her do the photography for our wedding in a heartbeat, but we want her to actually relax and enjoy ours

Our photographer is Melissa Vinsik, we just had our engagement shoot with her! She is great, very fun to work with and we loved the sneak peek pictures, can't wait to see them all! I would highly reccommend her. Her website is www.melissavinsik.com Good luck with your search!

We are using MBerlec Photography. She has several package prices with a couple being in your range.

I also looked at Steve Bowman in the Hartland/Delafield area. His price was great, but he did say it was going up.

We are using Lisa Mathewson - love the shots she got for our e-session. She has a nice package for $1800 that includes an e-session.

I would suggest Katie Toman Photography, we booked her for our wedding day and got our entire day for about $1500 and it included the entire day, a DVD of all the images and an album. What we also liked was her style was a mix between traditional and photojournalistic, it was a nice blend!

They're out of Oshkosh, but his traveling fees aren't bad at all. We have 8 hours of photography with 2 photographers for $1500, they have a smaller package than that too. They do such great work, he did family pictures for us in October and they turned out beautifully.
