So I'm in the midst of searching for a wedding photographer. This is important as you will remember the memories through these photos for years to come...
So our first interview was this evening. I received a postcard from a photog who got my name off of the knot.com (yes, beware, the knot sells your name and address out to vendors so get ready for lots of wedding mail) and my mom decided to call him and arrange a meeting at his walk up apt on west 46th street.
Even though we had an appointment with Anthony at Perceptions Photography there was another couple in the room (who he later said went to his High School in Long Island- red flag) and another girl who was coming in to pick up photos of her December wedding. When we finally sat with Anthony and started discussing budgets and pricing he declared "I'm overpriced"- Wow! that's a bold statement -especially in this economy. And way to win-over new prospective clients!
We got out of there pretty quickly after that. $12k + for wedding photos!! I'm sorry, unless Annie Leibovitz is shooting our wedding - you're right, you are overpriced.
Anyway, I live in NYC and photographers are a dime a dozen. Good luck Anthony with the great attitude and customer service!
