Wedding + Engagement Photography package for under $3000

Hi everyone,
We have been looking for a professional (with a unique style) photographer with a great offer on the entire package. I am looking for someone who incorporates a few different styles .. balck/white, vintage etc while taking many candid shots all the time!

Though I would definitely like to stay within budget I wouldnt mind paying a bit more for the frills like coffee table album, etc.
Any ideas are appreciated!

Thank you!
Michelle

    You should take a look at our photographer - Julian Ribinik.
    Our budget was similar to yours and we got an amazing photos and an album, and most important - his team is AMAZING.

    Good luck!

    I'm using Robert Wayne as well. I looked at Artistic European Photography ( we loved them) but you can go past the $3k mark pretty quickly depending on what you need.

    We're also Robert Wayne Photography.  I think he'd be a good fit for what you're describing.

    We went with Bradley from Rhema Images Photography. I can't really recommend their work since we haven't had our pictures taken yet, but from their blog and website, as well as our meetings, I am super excited. They are very photojournalistic and are under $2500 for full-day coverage and a 4-hour engagement shoot.

    I just was recommended Kate and got her pricing yesterday - it says coverage starts at $4500, not including e-sessions.   But her work does look awesome, so I am going to meet with her anyway!

    <div>Her pricing is a over your $3K...I kinda forgot where her packages started when I mentioned her.  Her work however is just amazing...if you can find a some wiggle room and photography is a priority for you, I'd go for it.  For us, photo/video were the most important part of our wedding for us, so we spent more in those areas :)</div>

    We went with Daniel Moyer.  We haven't shot with him yet but he's a pleasure to work with.  I was so impressed with his portfolio that I knew we needed to book him (the photographer was the most important to me after we got the church & venue)!

    Our package was a little bit over $3,000 (we chose the Traditional package) but we got all day coverage, the album, digital negatives and a few other things.  There is another option that's a step down.  I would definitely check him out.
