Has Anyone Used/Heard of Country Road Photography or Frank King Photography?

Hi Ladies,
    I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of Country Road Photography? They're in Shrewsbury and there's nothing about them on WW reviews, so I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with them?

    I've heard of Frank King and read WW reviews, but I wanted to hear it from my local knotties. Thoughts? Any ideas on their pricing?

Thanks!

    Frank King is good, but they run specials... like if you book with them at a wedding show, you can get half off packages!! I'm the sale queen, so I would go to a bridal show just to get that deal if you could!

    My Mom's office just got their staff pictures done there, and I must be honest... I was not impressed at all.  Now Frank didn't do them himself, and he rarely does take any.... it's other people that work for him now.

    Frank King Photography did our wedding photos. Our photog's name was Sean Shannon. He did an AMAZING job!!! I absolutely love our pictures! And we got a great deal because we booked at a bridal shower. Also, their prices are negotiable. I highly recommend them. They're much more afforable than other high end photogs in the area and the quality is just as good. You can also request your photographer. I suggest Sean!

    i havent used Frank King personally but i have seen several photos by their company. the issue sometimes is that they have several photographers and each photographers style and experience varies. so i have seen some great shots and some really not so great shots. i'd be careful if you do meet with them that you can verify which photographer takes sample photos that you like and whether you can book that specific photographer for your event. GL!

    We are using Frank King. Our photographer is Wick and he is very good so far! We booked him at a Bridal Show and like mentioned we got a fantastic deal! Very affordable. We have only just got our engagement pictures done (which were included in the wedding package) but i'm very impressed :)

    My sister used Frank King. The pictures are good, but honestly we were both very disappointed. They're very traditional and boring as far as poses go. Of course, that's just one of their photographers, I can't speak for all of them. Also, I had them booked for my wedding at the same time, but cancelled when it was called off. I sent the cancellation and requested the amount of the deposit back as stated on their notice and never received it. I tried getting in contact with them numerous times and could never get anyone to call or email me back. My sister also said they were very disorganized and unprofessional. I personally wouldn't recommend them.

    If you use Frank King be sure you know who/what you're getting.  King rarely takes the actual wedding images and sends out staff photographers to take your wedding pics.  He of course gets a cut of the deal since it's his name on their images.  Go private/smaller firms that have a focus on the style you're looking for and BE SURE to meet your photographer who will be there!  Your personalities should mesh well so they can capture your personalities and the images that the two of you want.. not what they want.
    Goo Luck!
