Photographer recommendations in Kent?

Stazzle, 7 August, 2008 at 14:46 Posted on Planning 0 21

Hi everyone

Pretty much what the title says, really! We've recently booked our venue and although our wedding isn't until 2010 we'd like to get the photographer booked next just so that's one less thing we have to worry about next year when all the other bits have to be sorted. I take it photographers are taking bookings for 2010 now or are they not...?

We're looking for someone reasonably priced and are getting married in Rochester. Would prefer to go from recommendations as I have no clue what to look for in photographers!!

Thanks

Stacey

    Hi,

    We are getting married in September & have booked Ian Giles www.iangilesphotos.co.uk

    We know people that have used him & have seen alot of his work & it's great. He is very open to how you want to be photographed & very reasonable price with no minimum order of photographs.

    Hope this helps?

    Hi

    I live in Rochester, unfortunately dont have any recommendations for photographers for your wedding as a friend is doing ours but I am curious where you are having your reception?

    I absolutely love Cooling Castle Barn and if I could crap money I would of had my wedding there and just wondered what other brides in Rochester are doing?

    ? aaah thanks! Must admit, we are spending a lot of money on the venue but we were always expecting to as we both have large families, so catering for a lot of people was always going to be expensive! It does mean we have to try and cut back on all other areas of the wedding but we think it's worth it. We're also getting married on a Sunday as they had no summer Saturdays left when we went to book it, and that has worked out quite a bit cheaper than we thought!

    Have you booked yours yet?

    Yeh I have booked mine, it is in november this year so i haven't got too long left now.

    we ended up going for a hall which is actually turning out to be really good as we are getting our own food in and things are just working out well and working out a lot cheaper so we can spend more on the honeymoon (which i can not wait for)!!

    it may not be til next Summer but i cant wait to see your photos already! they will be perfect!

    Thanks November Bride, it seems a long way away yet but I'm sure it will come round quick, it's less than 2 years away now and we got engaged over 2 years ago, that seems to have flown by! All the best for yours too, it will be here before you know it!

    London Photographer - thanks, I'll take a look at the site now! ?

    Hi Stacey,

    I know that self recommendation is no recommendation at all, but we're brilliant!

    Ahem...

    Anyway, we're not too far away, and I think we're reasonably priced, but my wife thinks we're far too cheap, she would, she's an accountant.

    Take a look at our site www.pkphotovideo.co.uk, if you like what you see, drop me a line and we can have a chat about your day.

    Pete xx

    Hi.

    I'm not sure if you are still looking, but can highly recommend David Hebditch at www.portlandstudios.co.uk. He's based in Sandgate near Folkestone, but travels all over the place.

    Hi,

    For what it's worth, we met a guy at our friend's wedding who was brilliant !he was really friendly and very reasonable. We've booked him in for our wedding next February and another couple from that day have also booked him in. His website is: www.carloconnell.co.uk

    I have no personal connection with him at all, I just thought he was really good and kept everyone smiling, so check him out.

    Cheers,

    Martin

    Hello!

    I'm too getting married in 2010, and we booked our photographer through recommendations. We decided to go with dale crook www.dalecrook.com as we loved his style of photos and he was generally a nice, down to earth guy.
