Photographer....CHECK!

Finally, we have him picked out! We booked Eric Brushett! We met with both Max Aureli & Eric and both are wonderfully talented. Max was 30 mins late for our appt. and didn't bring the 2nd shooter as promised which rubbed my FI the wrong way. So, he was already out of the running before he sat down with us (in my FI's eyes)  :(

I will say although I am happy with Eric, Max would be a great choice, too!

Happy hunting!

    <div>He didn't explain why he was late nor did he apologize. He just asked, "How long were you waiting?" </div><div>By this time, my FI was annoyed and worried about him being late to our wedding! My FI was just really bothered by it! We all sat down, had a great lunch and laughed and laughed! I wasn't holding it against him! :) Oh Max!</div><div>

    I am waiting on Eric to see if he has my date free...he met with another couple with the same date. I am hoping he is free! I didn't realize how difficult it would be choosing a photographer!

    I've heard a lot of great things about Eric! Are his prices reasonable?

    <div>His pricese are extremly reasonable! If you sit down with him he will make anything work for you. My FI is the cheapest person ever and we came out with an unbelievable package for very little money (under $2600). Eric is willing to help out anywhere he can. He understands how much planning a wedding is as he is planning a wedding with his FI as well.</div><div>
    </div><div>Although Max Aureli didn't work out for us, I would say give him a try if Eric isnt available. He is also fantastic with a great personality! His prices were even cheaper than Eric's! Tell him what your budget is and he will work with you!</div><div>
    </div><div>Before choosing Eric, we were going to meet John Lo johnlophoto.com A co worker used him and her pics came out awesome! He was booked for our date. He books fast! He starts at $1500 I believe for 8 hrs.</div><div>
    </div><div>Good Luck!</div>

    </div><div>It's so difficult! I had such a hard time with vendor commitment! If you can't get Eric and if that's the budget you want to stay around, check out Max Aureli & John Lo johnlophoto.com</div><div>

    We're taking ours in Hamden at sleeping giant, then heading over to a vineyard or orchard (maybe Lyman's)... Eric came up with these ideas and since I'm more of an outdoor scenery person rather a downtown/city type I thought this was perfect! :)
