    Ideas for great photographers at a reasonable price (trying to stay around or under $3,000)  Any ideas?  Any that you have heard bad things about?

    I LOVE my photographer Alicia D'Amico.  Not only is her work beautiful, but her personality was key. She is darling! Since she will be documenting our wedding, beginning to end, it's important that she is easy going, fun to talk to, creative and is just as excited if not more excited than me.  Check her out: pureemotionsphotography.com. Our wedding is in November but I fell in love with her clients' photoshoot!

    My wedding is in 2 weeks, so I can't really give a thumbs up or down yet... But all of the work on our photographers website is incredible! I think the website is easthillphotography.com

    He's in Tallahassee (or Pensacola, I forget) But I believe he travels. Good luck!

    My photographers have been absolutely amazing.  They are based out of Orlando but travel all over the world for weddings.  There is no charge to travel to the Tampa Bay area.  I am so thrilled with my engagement photos--I could never have dreamed they would turn out so well.  They are under $3K for sure.

    I used Narrative Image for my wedding a few weeks ago and they were great! They were right around your price point (though I also got albums, so they are probably a bit less, I just chose to add more on). It's a husband/wife team and they kept me at ease and stayed even later than contracted. HTH!

    All of our vendors, DOC and other friends have highly recommended Jason Angelini

    check out his blog and site www.jasonangelini.com   After my daughter and future son in law met him they were sold.  He is reasonable and very personable for all dealings.

    I love how his wife updates his blog daily.  Great place to see his work at different venues.  He was one listed too in the BEST OF THE KNOT 2009

    @Tampamom: I just spent WAY too much time on Jason's site. He is amazing!

    I encourage you other West Coast brides to check out his blog. He has done weddings at SEVERAL locations around the Tampa Bay area (the Powell Crowsley, Lange Farm, the Don Cesar, the Vinoy, etc) and you might find some venue inspiration!

    oh I know.... several young teachers at my school are blaming me for "hooking them on Jason's blog".... you can get lost in his work.

     

    Lots of inspiration there for sure.

    I loved Jason's work - but he books up pretty far out in advance, partly because he's a great deal as well.  If you're interested in him - book early!

    Originally, I hired Love Inspired Photography but the engagement shoot turned out to be a bust. It took 3 months to get back the engagement pictures and the lady has been very difficult to communicate with. The pictures were less than satisfactory. If you have not already hired a photographer, I suggest that you steer clear of this company.

    I second August15Bride. I used Audrey Snow as well and I love her photos. 

    You can see her work here: http://www.swsmag.net/blog/2009/8/24/real-florida-wedding-cristin-justin.html

    She worked with a second shooter for the long day (preparation shots began at noon, wedding at 1pm, reception finished at midnight), and there was a third assistant during the church ceremony. She's based in Fort Myers but shot our wedding in Sarasota without any travel fees.

    I used John Paul Kindig photography.  He's actually running a special right now if you book in February for any 2010 wedding.

    Jason Angelini all the way!!!  We had him photograph our small wedding in mid-March and he did an unbelievable job!  He was such a joy to work with and was priced super reasonably!  He was completely down to earth and was AMAZING with our 7 year old daughter who followed him around all day!  He was great with her, even letting her carry his flash! 

    I will make sure we use him for ALL of our future photographs!
