Photographer woes

So, I'm trying to decide between 4 photographers: Midwest Lifeshots, Dana Schoppe, CallieV, and Dan Seipp from Con Tiempo.  We like Midwest Lifeshots' pictures the best, but they end up being way more expensive than the others and you get less for your money.  So I'm trying to decide if it is worth the extra money?? Can people who have worked with or compared any of these 4 give feedback?  I talked to a bunch of other people who are not available on our day (Include Render and ElizabethAnn) so, if you could keep comments to these 4, that would be the most helpful to me.  Thanks!

    Ah!! Midwest LifeShots is my photographer! I am in LOVE with their pictures and they are phenomenal!! I've known Jen and Scott almost my whole life and I can tell you that they seriously love their jobs, they eat sleep and drink photography.
    They are definitely worth the price! My engagement pictures are so amazing, you can check out a few in my bio, if you'd like.
    I can't say enough great things about them! LEt me know if you have any other questions! You can tell them that Sabrina sent you :)

    MrsSheele, your e-pics look really nice!  Also, I noticed that you're using Muddy Paws--so are we!  Delicious!  Can I ask--are you getting the usb drive with the edited pictures on it or how are you dealing with that from Midwest Lifeshots?  I think it's a bummer they charge so much extra for that because most places include it in their price!

    I got the USB od my edited e-pics becauseI wanted to use them for table numbers.
    I am getting the unedited USB for the wedding pics and am going to try to edit them myself.. I have some experience in PHotoshop. And will just order a handful of my favorites for the house.

    I'm glad you like my pictures.. I seriously had such a fun time with Jen and Scott during our e-pic shoot.. they are so fun, funny, and really captured our relationship in the pictures
    And yes, I am seriously in love with Muddy Paws! Hands down the best cheesecake I've seen in my life! Even over Cheesecake Factory!

    I am not familiar with those photographers, but I think photography is one area to splurge.  These are the only memories you are left with at the end of the day - and some photographers seem to give you more but their quality is not as great.  I would say book with whomever you trust to capture your day the best - regardless if the price tag is a little bigger than your other options.  Good luck with your decision!

       P.S  my photographer is Studio Laguna and we adore them, just got our engagement pics recently and I just know they are going to be great for our big day!  Cool
