photographer?

I know this gets posted a lot, but I keep forgetting to pay attention...  Who would you all reccomend as a photographer for family portraits in early-mid November for our combo family/Christmas photos?  Maybe to go somewhere, maybe in our home, maybe at their studio?  We would love to have a CD of the pics to chose from ourselves.  We've been to Portrait Innovations twice now, but they aren't always great with kids, and Will can take a while to warm up to someone, wasting pictures/time on his grumpies that don't turn out the best.  We don't want to spend a ton, but are willing to pay a decent amount for decent pictures.  We only do them once a year, so want to do better than last year.

Thanks!

  • Hi Erin,

    I just shared on your wall our photographer's fall mini session info. They are priced a bit higher than other places but we have always always been happy with the result. 

    They include an 11x14 print with the session which is a really nice size to showcase in a home gallery.  You don't get a CD of the photos, but she will usually email you web sizes of the images you purchase to share online on facebook or whatever.

  • ShuTree (a nestie who doesn't post very often) is just starting out and trying to build her portfolio. I've seen some of her work and it's awesome, I'd hire her in a second. Right now she's charging $75 for a photo shoot and CD of 25-50 edited images. I can give you her contact info if you're interested.
    Happy mom to two sweet, silly boys: Cohen age 4, AJ age 2.

  • I love our photographer Alyssa Gaskill. She is booking for November right now so if you're interested you may want to contact her now :-) She charges $125 for a 2hr shoot, photo edits and a cd with the rights to you. 

    She's taken all of G's pictures, I just love her to death!

  • I've seen a lot of work by LeAnn Tucker and she does an excellent job. She's from Winterset or thereabouts, but I know she'll come up here. I think she's $75/hr for a CD with printing rights. I've heard she's wonderful to work with and was considering using her myself this fall until I won a photo package elsewhere. I can ask my coworker for her contact info if you're interested.
  • LOVED LOVED LOVED christie with Lemon Tree Photography. We got all our photos on CD along with 3 variations of them (color, b&w, and antique/sepia). Shes on facebook.

    We LOVED her! Here are just a few pics that we received from her http://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/55303183.aspx for Ella's newborn session. I think we'll use her again too!

  • Another vote for Cristi Rittgers of Lemon Tree Photography! She is a good friend of mine and does awesome work! :)
