I want a photographer for about 8 hours to include ceremony, park pics, and the reception (think 2-10pm). I want digital pictures that I have all the rights to print on my own. I am not looking for any prints, albums or any "extra" type session like engagement photos.
Where do I find this person? Is this realistic (in Milwaukee area)?

Cathleen has been fantastic to work with through our engagement photos and I cannot wait for the wedding day!

She's based out of Chicago, but is/was willing to drive up to Hartford for us!
I don't think so. We booked Dennis Heltemes to do our photography and he is charging us $1,200, which includes the engagement pictures (1 1/2 hour session) and 10 hours of photography for the wedding. He also gives you 3 CDs to disburse. In case you want to check out his work, you can check him out on Facebook. Good luck!
P.S. if you do not want the engagement pics, he charges $1,100.00 for all that I mentioned above. And he gives you the right to the prints.
She even worked with me and my budget after I got laid off. Which was a huge help.
Whatever you choose, look very closely at the person's prior work. It will give you a good idea of what you are going to get. Photography is something that you may wish you spent a little bit more on to get good quality work.
