    Not sure of my exact budget. I know a lot say our "prices start at". I guess I'd like to stay under 3000.

    Sharyn Frankel is really popular here, Artisitc Imagery in Bensalem and Clair Pruett in Blue Bel are goodl, Mike Landis is good, Kimberly Salem is good. If you decide to up the budget later I cannot say enough good things about Cliff Mautner and Susan Stripling also.

    Mike Landis is highly recommended, but he might be out of your budget.  Definitely call him though.

    Craig Single Photography is good.  I also ditto Sharyn Frenkel. Also Rich Lavigne.

    I used Paul Lutes Photography, and I love his work.
    Paprika: I like it when you burp in my ear. It really turns me on.

    My Photographer was a MIRACLE.
     My original photographer called me the day of the wedding unable to get here from upstate NY due to flooding.
    I mentioned it to a friend in passing, he called Mark James to see if he was available...long story short, within 45 minutes, he had arrived and TOTALLY saved the day.
    He is wonderful to work with.  I can't say enough nice things about him.

    Please at the very least give him a call.  Very few people would do what he did for me for a stranger.

    Just know with places like Artistic Imagery and Clair Pruitt you will be assigned photographers, and you won't find out until a couple weeks before the wedding.

    A friend of mine just had her wedding shot by Craig Singleton, and her photos came out beautiful.  Sharyn Frenkle also does good work, but I think she starts at 3K.

    i was just gonna say Sharyn Frenkle starts over 3k...heard great things about her and MIke landis but they both start higher then your max. don't forget about the add ons to each package they will probally end up being more than 3k.

    i have also heard good things about Artistic Imagery< but there is a whole post about them and alot of people seem unhappy /> and Clair Pruitt i dont know there prices though

    I am using Clair Pruett and I could choose my photographer (I paid a retainer) but Gary (he is probably the most popular one anyways and worked out of the Blue Bell location) also does work outside of Clair Pruett now so you can book him directly if that is who you want to use.
    His website is:

    He is great to work with and an amazing photographer :)

    Matt Wright at Fig Tree Photography!  He does AMAZING work and we've booked him for our wedding next June.  Last year when we booked him he had a few really nice packages under 3k.  

    We've worked with him for our e-pics already and he was so much fun.  Very laid back kind of guy.  I have a bunch of my e-pics in my bio (link in my siggy) if you would like to check them out.

    Photography by Leah she is AMAZING!!!  She has a facebook page and her own website.  She is soo easy to work with and talk with, she is fabulous!  Her packages starts a little over a $1,000 and go up from there but she is always very willing to work with your budget.  Good luck :)
