Hi fifteenmay,

Glad to hear you have finally decided on your AD photographer. My HB also likes peter's work. I hav met up with him recently to do my PS photos selection...really liked the pics he took for us. Eventually bought all the pics .... So now i'm waiting to see my album layout. Thou i would like to engage him for my AD but i'm more interested in the cartoon animation i saw fr another co haha...

Hi Kittyng,

I am glad to hear the good comments about Peter! You bought all the pictures? Do you mean PS? Wow that must have cost quite alot . i have engaged him for my AD and i hope we get real nice photos!

I also went to meet with Coffee and Tea pple, but unfortunately we are looking at animation for our pre wedding video so we dropped them. Oh ya, i think they have a tie up with Depixel for photography.Depixel was our second choice for AD Photographer.

Hi Candyprincess,

Do you think a VG is necessary?

I am having second thoughts on should i get one...

Is it worth it?

Hi,

I'm looking for a photography and videography for my actual day. After reading so much, may I ask how much should we be looking at say like fifteenmay's 300 photos? As I'm renovating my house now, I need to do my financial planning well to know how much we need to budget for the price.

Hi Candyprincess,

initially we didnt think it was... but our Pastor suggested us to get one because the day will pass in a blur and we wldnt knw what happened.. i was glad i did! because i got to see the gate crashing session, what i missed out on during the whole ceremony, the dinner, pple coming in, mingling... I would suggest that if u have the extra funds to go ahead and get one. It was nice to see the dvd because seriously speaking, the day really passed in a blur and I didnt really remember what happened... ahahahahah! also the fact that my PG was late and missed the make up session, my VG managed to get it... they are from different companies and it was nice to see different scenes and views from 2 professionals... Photos capture moments, Videos captures scenes...

It was WORTH IT!

Hi Candyprincess,

Thank you for the feedback. As we dun have gatecrashing, i dun think we will miss much However,we do want to video our church wedding as we believe that it will be a real meaningful session. do we need to video the wedding dinner? i thought ofjust videoing the morning session. who did u engaga for your vg? was he any good? any contacts?

ok, i will check with my htb and check around for quotations.

Hi Toppie,

The photographypackages are about 1k - 1.5k. These are the lower end ones but their photos are not bad.

you can try ampm photography for 150 photos.photos are really nicely taken.

Yew Kwang 300 photos

Depixel photography 300 photos.our second choice

Daylight Picture 300 photos. we took his package in the end.

Take note that these are all photographers only.

There are some tie ups between photographers and videographers that might save abit.

Hope these help!

How To Get The Most Out Of Your Bridal Photo Selection

My 2 cents worth la....

cheekybee,

great tips!!

exactly wat we did when we select the photos!

Edited April 29, 200818 yr by Fifi

I just spent $4.7K for the studio shots.... zzzzzzzzz

Thanks Fifi...heehe...not easy to be self-disciplined hor?

At first we told ourselves 42 photos should be quite enough but we ended up choosing another 20 more...

Nivlek...wow that's quite a lot...think you almost bought all of the photos? Do you feel happy after spending that $4.7k?? If yes...then don't think about it already lor...hee...I fully understand how the temptation of topping up can be so overwhelming!!

For couples who do not wish to spend that much...remember to constantly remind each other on that day...pinch each other if that works...haha...

On our way to select the photos, I instructed my hubby many many times to give me one tight slap to wake me up if I ever displayed the slightest hint of wanting to top up the photos...

But in the end, we still topped up 6 photos....though not much, not easy to control not to top up also...sigh...

Before going down, must really convince yourself not to top up....
