Are you just looking for photogs that are located in PV?

**Kat** · July 19, 2010

You might also want to ask Kelley for a list of photogs that she suggests! That is how I found Nate! She sent me a whole list. Let me see if I can find it.

Andi- Yes, I was looking for somone who was in PVR. What other way is there Paying a local photog to travel down with us? Have lots of folks done that?

Andi · July 19, 2010

yes that is another option, to bring a photog with you. although that could get pricey.

here is another photog that is part time in PV...I know couple playa fiesta/BDW brides have used her:

OH I forgot, another option that you could explore if you want...

a lot of brides have brought a local photog with them and worked something out to where they just paid for the travel expenses. This would be for a photog that is looking to expand their DW portfolio or something like that. It works out for everyone because you as the bride get pics and the photog gets to travel and shoot at a great location that they probably wouldn't get to if they stay local. So if there are any photogs that you have been eyeing that are not in PV, it wouldn't hurt to contact them and ask what they think about a DW. KWIM? does that make sense?

OH and another option...there are a few BDW members turned wedding photogs, their pics are great too! you could always check them out, they aren't in PV but you could research them too...here are a couple that come to mind:

I know there are more but that is all I can think of at the moment...

you can always look at the vendor marketplace on BDW too for ideas

Yes, lots of people pay to have a photog travel to their wedding. That is what happened with Nate. He actually lives in Oregon and was already going to be in PV shooting a wedding when I was there. So it worked out well.

Here is the email that I got from Kelley when I asked who she suggested.

Thanks guys. I've gotten a response from Jillian Mitchell. She is booked. This list helps me out a TON. And with Kelly being off until July 28, 2010, I'm going NUTS not being able to ask questions! HA. Thanks Kat and Andi.....You've helped a great deal.

Trisha Faber is another BDW bride turned photog. Faber Photography Modern Wedding Photographer She's awesome just like Tammy and Mel!

Hmm... at one time I had contacted a whole bunch of photogs but I cant remember the names. You might be able to find a photog list in the PV section. I remember one from long time ago.

bridgecolor.com is located in PV I believe
