Linda bernadic

Has anyone used or is using Linda Bernadic for photography? I can't decide what to do. I met her and like her but she's only been in business 5 years as opposed to other photographers who have been doing this for a long time. Also, the package we put together with her cost $2100. With any other photographer what I'm getting would cost over $4000. Her prices are like half! So I like that, but I'm nervous..I dont know if its a good thing or not.

    Have you seen her work? What do you think of it?  Just because she has only been in business for 5 years it doesn't mean  anything less of her talent. That talent is there whether she's been in business 5 or 20 years.

    ditto Jaimie,  def take a look at samples or maybe even ask if you can contact a previous bride as a reference.

    Agree with pp, also, what did she do before she did this?  Did she do other photography?  She could be a very experiences photographer and only recently started doing weddings.

    5 years is a pretty good amount of time. You should look through a complete wedding she shot - not just her best 20 or 30 photos, but an entire shoot.

    I saw some samples of her work and I wasn't super impressed. But then she showed me a final copy of someone's actual album that they didn't pick up yet so we couldnt touch it. Those pics were great! We were impressed. Idk why I was in such doubt about her. maybe just because of the price being so much cheaper it threw me for a loop. Thanks girls!

    Glad that you got to see an entire album and that you liked it. (Ask to see another album of work just to be on the safe side)

    Like pp's said 5 years of photography is enough to give her experience and if the skill is there, its there.

    The reason her price is so low is most likely she is new to the wedding side and by offering a very attractive price to new brides.

    Good luck!

    I am also trying to decide whether or not to hire her as our wedding photographer. I absolutely loved her when we met! I'm curious to see what your decision was!?
