Rock Daddy's?

Anyone heard of the Rock Daddy's?  I don't think I'm going to be able to see them in person before booking, so I'm game for any suggestions! On a separate note, I STILL haven't found a photographer!  I think I must be getting married on the busiest wedding day of the year because everyone that I can afford has been booked.  BUMMER

    On the photography note . . have you looked into Blush Imagery, they are out on Portland. We are using them and we LOVE them. It's a husband and wife (wife is the owner, husband does more commercial work but does weddings also for her) so they each own their own companies, his more commercial and she owns the wedding side. . but anyways not sure what your budget is but Brian's packages are cheaper since he isn't strictly just a "wedding photographer" but he does amazing work. Check them out!! :)

    I'm not sure what your budget is like, but did you try Rachel Bell? She's around $1800 for 8 hours of coverage by 2 photographers, a pre-wedding shoot (a lot like an engagement session) and I'm not sure what else. She did my best friend's wedding back in May and she was wonderful. Sorry I've never heard of Rock Daddy's. Hopefully someone else will have some info for you!

    Sorry, I have no info on the Rock Daddy's.As for photographers, I don't know who you've tried, but First Frame Studio is really affordable, like $1,000, and her photos are good too. [url]www.firstframestudio.com[/url]Life Portraits by Angela is $1,800. [url[www.lifepotraitsbyangela.com[/url]Casey Durgin has a package for $1,800 as well. [url]www.caseydurginphotography.com[/url]Sierra K Photography has packages for $1,250 and $1,500. [url]www.sierrakphotography.com[/url]I'd also suggest Audra Bayette, but she was booked for my June 12 date, so might already be booked for yours. [url]www.audrabayette.com[/url]Sorry if I'm repeating anything I already posted to you!I would also say that I had some luck haggling with some photographers, asking for the 2009 price instead of the 2010 price even though my wedding is in 2010, or saying I loved their work but I could only spend $1,500, and asking how their package could be modified to hit that mark. It will probably only save you a couple hundred dollars, but if someone is just over your budget, you could try seeing what they're willing to do for you.Good luck!

    I'm not sure if I'm repeating, but Steven Fairfield is awesome.  He's doing our wedding and it sounds like he could be in your budget if you ask him to tweak his packages.  Worth a try!www.stevenfairfieldphotography.com

    thanks everyone!  I tried a lot of those, but they were booked (steven fairfield, clare norton, etc.).I did email Rachel Bell and she was willing to negotiate with me, so I think we are booking her!  YAY!  Thanks for the suggestion!Now on to the band!  Goodness, weddings are hard!

    That's great news! Yeah, it's kind of crazy how much is involved...as soon as one thing is done, it's time to focus on something else!
