If he's a photographer I don't think it would offend him - it's VERY common to have two shooters at a wedding instead of just one!
What about having two photographers? One photographer might have a hard time getting all the pictures that you want.
I think you should go with "we've decided to go with vendors who are not friendors to keep everything professional". If you say you want them to enjoy themselves they will insist it's not a big deal. I've seen that before.
you just tell your cousin that his style of photography is not the best of your interest. if he's a professional, he should understand that everybody has different tastes.
i have a similar-ish problem as well. my boy's best friend is a professional photographer with fantastic equipment, but i do not like his style. he's a sports photographer so he's very good at taking crisp action shots, but i like the retro photoshopped look. there is a photographer that i want to work with, but boy is adamant about using his best friend because 'it's cheaper'.

I am planning on asking (well I kind of already asked, though not formally) my friend's husband to shoot our wedding pictures. He is super talented and I love his work. He used to work as a photography assistant for his cousin, who has his own photography business. My friend's husband told me that he would do our wedding for cheap since he is trying to start a business separate from his cousin's. Here's the problem: I really would like his cousin to shoot my wedding because after comparing their work, I think I really like the cousin's better and FH and I decided this was one place we wanted to splurge if we had to. It wouldn't be a problem, except apparently the cousin and my friend's husband are having "issues" (that is all I was told and I don't feel it's my business to ask further). And since I want to have my friend and her husband at my wedding anyway, it's not like I can just have the cousin do that pictures and they'll never know about it.
My question is: How do you suggest I go about tactfully telling my friend's husband that I want his cousin to come shoot the wedding too without offending him. Is that even possible? I was thinking about going the "I really want you to not be too busy and be able to enjoy being a guest too" route, but idk! Help!
