Hi all,I'm just starting my search for a photographer for a June 2010 wedding in Brookfield, CT.  Anyone have a good one they worked with?  I'm looking to have 2 photographers and love the idea of a photo booth (although not mandatory).  Thanks!Kate

    Erik Maziarz is fantastic! He recently became a second shooter for Carla Ten Eyck who is also incredible.

    We used Hubert Kopec (hk-photography.com). He and his partner Alka complement each other very well. We loved working with them and should hopefully be getting our photos back soon. They had great prices for their packages.

    I third HK. We loved working with them and the photos are amazing. You also can't beat their prices - they were the best that I could find in the area. PIB from our wedding. In terms of a photo booth, I think there are companies that you can rent them from. I don't know of any photogs that include that in their packages.

    We are working with Eric Foley (Eric Foley photography) for our May 2010 wedding and our package includes him + a second photographer. The package also includes a photobooth for our reception. I would recommend you Google him and check out his website & blog.

    We are using MJS Photography for our wedding photography and videography. But, we won a free engagement photo session (by filling out one of those cards and dropping them in a bowl at Stop & Shop). We were so psyched to get that done for free it was such a nice relief. Our E-pics were done by Julie from Jewel Photography. She was awesome to work with and I highly recommend her. I just feel bad that we already booked our wedding photography or we'd probably use her. http://www.jewelphoto.com/ if you'd like to check out some of her work. HTH! :0)

    I also say HK Photography. FI and I are doing a private ceremony in Kent with another ceremony later that day in Ridgefield, so Brookfield is no problem for them. They're totally great. We had a great time taking our engagement photos, and know they're do a wonderful job at the wedding.

    I'm using Lam Photography out of West Hartford.  Lam and his wife Carmen were sooo nice and accommodating when I met with them, and I knew as soon as we met that they were the ones.  Check out their website at lamphotography.com and good luck!!!

    I am using Anthony DeCarlo (www.decarlophoto.com). He shoots with a second photographer, was very reasonably priced and REALLY talented.  We've seen many pictures from other weddings he's shot and our engagement photos came out great.  I HIGHLY recommend him!

    We are using Vinny & his wife from King Vincent Storm (www.kingvincentstorm.com)! They have been great so far! Their packages are (IMO) the best out there! You get so much at a very decent price!

    I third Jerome Braga from Studio 1923.  Two of my friends used him and of all of our married friends (which are many) they have the best pics by far!  We just had our engagement shoot with him and had a blast.  They have many different package prices/options. Good luck!

    We booked with Carla Ten Eyck, who is amazing. And we also met with Jane from Photo Iris (www.photoiris.com), who is also wonderful and does beautiful work. It was the toughest decision so far! IMO you can't go wrong with either of these ladies. :]

    We're using Val McCormick, she's got a personality that can't be denied :)  We also met with Eric Foley as well and it was a really hard choice, loved them both and their work was pretty much the same as far as we could tell.  It really came down to who we clicked more with (we're actually sort of hoping that Val uses Eric as her 2nd shooter, lol)
