I haven't used any of them. I am actually using Kamila Harris. She is great! Where are you having your wedding?
I used Sue Walden. She was really nice. Her photgraphy is very photo journalistic, less artsy. In the end we wound up with a ridiculous # of pictures (+2000). This was in part bc we are a hard to photograph couple.
What kind of style are you looking for?
We definately like the photojournalistic style that all 3 have. It is really coming down to who we feel will suit our personalities and style. My fiance's biggest concern is that they are familiar with the ggrand hotel, i feel that as a photographer, especially if you are a really good one you can adapt to any surroundings you are handed.
Thanks for your input.

We used Sue Walden and she was lovely. However, she has nothing artistic or funky to offer if you're looking for that. We also received something like 2000 pictures and they were quite good but with 'standard' poses.
One piece of advice I could offer is to give a list of pictures you want taken - we only had 72 people at my wedding and there were many people I didn't have a picture of. Be very specific.
Thank you for the advice. We are torn right now between Bill Banks and Josh & Amber.
Did any of you have your wedding at the Hotel Alcott. If so I am wondering how you liked it and if you have any pointers.
Mer, I think the post prior to this is about the Alcott and there were several reviews in there. Take a look at that one. I had my wedding there and all my guests loved it.
I used sue walden for the photography for my wedding and the pictures are absolutely gorgeous! I specifically hired sue walden because I felt her photography was artistic. I have received numerous compliments on how my wedding pictures look like they are from a bridal magazine. She is a local photographer and I am sure she has done weddings at the grand and I was also pleased with her ideas on locations in that area (my wedding was at congress hall) that would make for great photo oppportunities.

i used sue walden and my wedding reception was at the grand and since then i"ve seen her shoot 2 other weddings there as well. i would recommend her to anyone - she adapts her style to her clients' wishes without losing her own identity and creativity - tell her what you are looking for and she'll deliver. my best friend and i both used her and we had totally different perpectives on what we wanted. her work was amazing with both of us - our pictures are classic yet unique and honest not posed or set up and our album is one of a kind she put it together for me its awesome. she is so easy to work with i hope you still consider her - you will not be dissappointed
