Hey, what’s the verdict on Studio V for painting?

Alex Carter3, who's actually going to bother taking your picture?

I called Jacob Smith. He’s getting married on September 12th, and he isn't doing any shoots two weeks before or after the big day. My date is September 5th, so that doesn't work for me. Typical.
Fox is supposed to get back to me; I tried calling, but he was stuck in a meeting.
Thanks a lot, ladies!

Thanks, I guess I'm acting like a total nervous wreck now.
Does anyone have Smith's number or his current pricing?
I sent a DM to Chiquita asking for details, but if someone here knows, just drop it here so I don't have to wait.
I'll call California and Fox later today. It feels a bit too early to be hitting a guy up on his cell.
Best,

Ladies, I need some help. My wedding is next year. The venue and the band are already booked, but I am completely stuck on the photographer. Having high-quality photos is everything to me, and I’ve spent so much time scrolling through this forum lately that I feel like I’m going to end up directing the photographer on how to pose me on the actual wedding day.
The issue is our budget. We set aside $1,000. We could potentially stretch it a little, but $1,500 is out of the question because we don't want to overextend ourselves right now. We aren't looking to blow money; we just want enough to get it done right. I might be willing to pay more, but my fiancé won't budge.
Give me some advice. Who is the best choice at this price point? I’ve heard Mark is good—he shot my sister’s wedding about six years ago—but they have multiple teams now, so I have no idea which one I’d actually like. Does anyone have experience with them? Please help.
Everyone else I looked at is way too expensive. I’d love to hire Matthews, but his rates are just too much for us.
What about the crew from San Francisco? I haven't called them yet, but I plan to tomorrow.
Honestly, picking a photographer is giving me nightmares. I want quality, but I can't reach an agreement with my guy. I want to book someone ASAP before they get fully booked, but he acts like there's always plenty of time.
Anyway, I needed to vent so I can finally get some sleep. Tomorrow is another workday.

I heard a rumor that Amogos in Malibu is shutting its doors next year.

I'm getting married next year and I know the owner personally, so that's nonsense.👍
The guy is actually a friend of the boss, but even if he wasn't, I’d pick that venue because it is 😍 way too good to pass up.
