Finding a Photographer

So when we met with our wedding planner... our 2 things that we needed to get done ASAP was to get our venue booked and to book our photographer... So I have been to a bunch of Bridal Fairs (which I think that most of us do out of excitement when we first get enganged)... and I just had no connected with anyone... I starting using different websites to find a different kind of photographer... someone that just does not take the standard wedding photos...So I came across Eric from Raw Photo Design... and his pictures are fabulous and different.... I also found Tonia Sones... which I love her pictures also... and Candice has recommended Carla Ten Eyke to me... So right now I have a top 3.. I am meeting with Eric this saturday and I can not wait... I am in the process of compiling my list of questions so I dont forget when we get face to face... My Eric is going to be in town and we are both going to meet him... He has told me via email that he likes to get to kow his couples so that they are comfortable with him and in front of the camera... I really like that thought... I mean I dont want the wedding day to be the 2nd day I meet with him... I am totally excited and cant wait... I am also in the process of setting up meetings with the other 2 on the top 3... I will let you know what happens....
