Our freelance photographer, Dave Tavani, was great. He was able to give us what we wanted.

Photographers offer a range of products and services and they all do things differently, so it can be hard to compare them. I knew that I wanted a professional photographer to take pictures before the wedding, through the wedding and formals after the wedding, but that was it. I had family and friends who took over the photography from there. I plan to compile all the photographs into a photo book, so I didn't want to be paying for a photo album from a professional photographer. Although I think Dave usually works with a partner, he scaled it down to what we were looking for and included the camera files, as well as retouched jpegs so I could play with the files or just use his when making my photo book. He was early for every appointment, very professional and took great pictures.
