Looking for any experiences with her, good, bad, indifferent.  She can't do a meet in person until April so I would like to get some info on her to help make a decision.

Thanks!!

    I don't personally have experience with her, but is there anyway you could do a phone meeting? FI and I are pretty good at knowing when we click and don't click with people and we both felt really comfortable after talking to ours for an hour. We're planning from Arizona so it's hard to get back to meet with vendors. Also, ask if you can have access to a full wedding online. I got this and asked people that know their stuff to help critique the quality.

    I used her for my wedding last month!  Laughing  She and her husband, Micah, are just fabulous!  I would HIGHLY recommend them for anyone looking for a creative, fun and reasonable wedding photographer.

    This is the link to all of our wedding photos (she had them done within three weeks even during the holidays):

    She can't do a meet in person until April? That seems ... odd.

    She is primarily out of Kansas City but does weddings and other session in the Twin Cities since that's where she started out (and I know they have family in town). 

    Colleen is also pregnant and having a baby soon (I want to say Feb or March).  I can totally see her not being in town again until April!

    Yep, that's why.  She isn't traveling until she has the baby.

    Earlier I left glowing reviews about Colleen after she took our engagement photos (which were great!) but shortly after our wedding she decided to stop doing photography and then about a month or two later e-mailed me to tell me that every single image from our wedding had been 'corrupted' and lost. 

    Now I completely understand an accident happening but there had to have been several different memory cards and all the photographers I've spoken with say the odds of more than one memory card crapping out on a wedding are nill.  I'm not sure if she'll ever try to go back into the business but I felt it was important I put this out there. 

    And on top of that, when we got our wedding video back the soundtrack and video are completely off so when our mouths are moving there are no words coming out.  And conveniently their phone numbers are no longer working and we're relying on them to e-mail us back.  SO FRUSTRATING (and rude!) Consider yourself warned!
