actually 2k a little hard to hire good ones..

I spending about 2.3k to hire 2 good photographer and videographer.. i think willing to spend although my budget was only 1.5k.. then i pass his website to a few friends to see, all commented their videos and photos very nice as compared to the one i initially wanted to hire. some more is recommended by one member here.. so i think must be not bad..

esp the photographer. one of my fren is a professional photographer for corporate events, told me that the photographer tt i engaged for my AD, the pictures are AWESOME and the editing is very professional.. esp for the price im paying. somemore he's quite nice, know that i got budget, still give me big discount, coz i mention that my fren refered me. (he even still remembered my fren..)

I quite touched by his sincerity and passion.. anyway pm me if u need his contacts.

It is important to engage a professional photographer, and more importantly, someone's whose style fits what you want.

It's a special day, paying a little more for something that will last forever is priceless.

Hi all!

I took up missing pieces based on all these good reviews (and cheap) and did my research but boy I was wrong... The nightmare came AFTER I have my wedding in Decemeber 2013. Was promised the pictures after CNY but after CNY no news from Jed so I text him but he say will delay till end of Feb because he was on 2 weeks reservists.. I mean if you are going for 2 weeks, I am sure you will be informed eariler right? But no. No responsibility claim on that, it's okay so we set a date after his reservists till end Feb.

Then, when I saw the pictures, some of it was blurred and there are some serious overexposure! They did not even bother to edit those.. On the day when he presented the pictures to us, I needed him to photoshop some pictures, he said ok but again no news from him (didn't want to ask cos I want to see how long he takes before getting back to me). Until a few weeks later, he asked me for the balance payment, then I ask him for the edited pictures, again he said will send but as usual, late in his work and i received one day later. I feedback to him and emphasize on the overexposed pictures later after looking through countless time. But instead now he replies wanting us to make full payment then have a meet up and to rectify those pictures, but what if he delay again or what if he just cannot do anything about the exposed pictures? As I worked in a creative advertising agency, I've checked with my designer and they mention overexposed pictures theres not much could be done.

So what should I do? Should I pay and hope for the best? Anybody have this problems? Help! :(

Updates about my experience.. eventually the photographer did edit and burn another set of pictures for me, but all damage was done. Even though the pictures were claim 'not under expose' with the line graphics and all, but visually aesthetics look it IS over exposed. Not much things can be done, except if you ask me if I would recommend? Definitely a NO, I would recommend brides here to spend slightly abit more to get what is value for.
