Mike or Marc??

Hi Ladies

My FI and I are having a hard time choosing between Marc Anthony and Mike Landis..they are in the same price range and they both seem to do great work. Maybe there is someone out there that can point out different styles between them....this wedding planning is tough stuff!

Thanks!!!

    I couldn't choice between the two either.  so I started emailing both... but in the middle of emails, Marc got booked.  We met with Mike that weekend, and went with him.  Such a nice guy!

    I'd email both and see if they are free, and meet with them.  See if you click more with one then the other...

    Yes, I"d meet with both of them to see which personality you like best. Also, ask to see a full wedding from both, that may help you too to see from beginning to end. I'd pick who I meshed better with if you like the work they do equally, and they are the same price. Either way you will have very pretty pictures they both do really nice work.

    I booked Marc Anthony and I tell you he is soooo worth meeting. His work is incredible, his prices are the most reasonable, and he's a really great person. Mike was never an option for me personally although I've seen his work and think it's good. I looked into Hoffer but the difference in work was negligible and the price difference was huge. To me it was a no brainer.

    Thanks for the help!!

     We met with Mike this past weekend and we are meeting with Marc this coming weekend. Mike was a super nice guy, and from the phone Marc seems like it also. 
    Hoffer was already booked for next september :-(

    Have you seen photos from a whole wedding start to finish yet?  That will give you a better picture (no pun intended) of how your wedding photos will look.  Remember that people put the bet of the best on websites/blogs...seeing a full album or slideshow at each meeting may help you decide. Definitely just meet with both and go with your gut.

    Both are great, I bet after you meet with both you will just feel more comfortable with one over the other.  Remember you are spending almost the whole day with this person.  When we met with our photographer, we got along so fabulously, so I knew she was the one I wanted to shoot my wedding. 
    Also, the above suggestions of looking at a whole wedding is a great one.  You can't go wrong with either choice, good luck!
