Nice photos! If you love his work that is who you should go with.

Looks like great pictures. I personally don't like photo packages where you just pay for the time and get a CD with the pictures on. Then you have to go somewhere to get prints and that can get expensive. But they do have other packages. If they have a packaging system you want and it is in your price range then I think they would be a good choice.

Meet with them in person and see what you think, you want your photographer to be someone you are comfortable with.

I can't view the site right now (at work, and we don't have the proper version of "Flash"), but what Carolinalady67 just said is the best piece of advice EVER!!!

The photographer will be with you throughout the day, present at your most intimate moments! We got along with our photographer REALLY well, and I think it showed in our photos! We have some great candids of us laughing, and she was just such a pleasure to work with all day!!

I think if you really like his work, then book an appointment to see him. I personally made an effort to make sure we spent the money needed to get a good photographer - it's what was important to us. But definately meet with him first and make sure he's someone you'll want tagging along with you on your wedding day!

The pics are nice but personally I'm not a big fan.

There weren't a lot of detail shots and I don't know about you I want a lot of those. Also I don't like the hour thing and all the affordable packages only have cds. Our package cost a few hundered more than the last package that only has a cd and it was one of the most expensive packages our photographer offered.
Personally I'd keep looking but if you really like him meet with him and see what you can work out.

I honestly love the pictures, I think they are great quality and do a good job of capturing the emotions.

I agree with the other posters about meeting with them, but definitely watch out about the package pricing. The website made it seem similar to the photographer from my sister's wedding, and she ended up getting screwed. Her photographer essentially just charged for showing up and taking the pictures, and she got a CD also... but the CD was only of proofs (it said PROOF across the entire picture) so she had to go through the photographer for all their prints. They ended up spending almost twice what she had to pay for just the photographer on an album alone (we're talking close to 10K for a CD they can't use and an album). So try to get all the details you can about the packages!
