    What is your budget?  If you can afford her, Chelsea Nicole is absolutely amazing.  We did a TTD session with her and loved her.  We used Todd Wilson for our Wedding and loved him too.  He was much cheaper than Chelsea, but still did a great job.  We loved him and he took so many great pictures.  You can't go wrong with either of them.

    We used Sheer Elegance Photography, and I loved Krystaly. I haven't gotten the pictures back yet, but I can't wait!

    We chose Joey Allen, he has a great style like Chelsea Nicole but he is affordable.

    You should also look into Deacon Tyler.  We just did an engagement session with him and he was great.  Very reasonable prices.  http://www.dtyler-photography.com/

    We are using Mindy Bean of Sunbean Photography in Las Vegas.  She has a website, a blog, and is on Facebook.  She is VERY affordable.  We are paying 950 and she is doing our entire wedding/reception and doing a "free" engagement photo session for two-three hours on the Strip.  She has gorgeous pictures in her blog if you take a peek.

    Thanks ladies for all the great recommendations, I now have my search down to the 2 i like the best, deacon tyler and joey allen, the other photograpers were nice as well, but i like joey and deacon's portraits and style the best and it looks like they do a lot of retouching.  I would like to hear from any other brides who are using  either of them or have used them.

    Thanks:)

    I will have to say my experience with Michelle TOner was not great.  I will be writing the full reviews of everything soon, but my pictures did not turn out good, and I was very disappointed with the whole experience.  :(  In 3 hours, I received only about 60 different pictures, which she then made copies of and edited the lighting, etc to create more pictures creating 140 pictures total.  But most of them are just repeat pictures.  I got little feedback when taking the pictures, other than not to smile.  Let's just say, I don't look so hot when I am not smiling.

    Okay wow, I just saw your photos and some of the others that Deacon has done - I'm impressed!!

    It seems like every review I've seen of him here and online has been really good. 

    Girls, if Deacon has the date available, I think I found my new photographer.  I'll write back as soon as I talk to him *fingers crossed* :)
