I dont think the pictures are amazing. Standard. But not above par. Why? 1. Overly angled shots (see cake and groom w/ groomsmen) are the signature amateur shots. 2. The candid shots mostly caught people on the sides of their face, rather than the front, you lose a lot of expression by taking a side shot. 3. The close-ups were not close up enough (see flowers picture - too much going on. That shot should either be a flower picture, or a bodice of the dress picture, but not both). 4. I am not a fan of the black & white with one color (see groom with pink tie). You have to be careful when doing that. See the bouquet close-up with red and white flowers - the in color white flowers clash severely with the black & white background, giving the white roses a grey tinge.**Yes, if you like it thats what matters since you are the one paying.

I think her collection is fantastic. Much better than many I have seen, and I wouldn't doubt booking her. It looks as if she has a lot of experience, with at least 5 weddings under her belt, and I wonder how many more she hasn't added to the site yet...And if she's doing it for cost price, you certainly can't go wrong! Like you said, she's cheaper because she's using the job to build up her portfolio, and therefore her experience; so she's clearly not reached the professional status yet. Bearing this in mind, I think her level of talent is way above that of an amateur.Her talents are well-rounded too, which makes her a good contact to have; she can take your family photos in a couple of years Wink I would go for it if I were you; it's a great offer.

Her shots are 50/50. Some are great, and some have bad use of lighting. BUT, this is common...that's why they take so many pictures. If she's still building a portfolio, it makes sense that she has less-than-the-best pictures on her site. I would go with this photographer but make it clear that you want a lot of pictures to be taken. You'll be happy in the end.
