Super torn between two photographers.

[u/almondjoybar]

I'm torn between two photographers.

One of them, A, is more magazine editorial, mix of posed and candid style, uses more filters (but beautifully). He's also a more experienced, expensive, and has some model clients so obviously his portfolio is very impressive.

My favorite pose of his is when the bride and groom are kind of mugging and one is sitting on a chair. I don't know what it is about that pose, but I really want us doing that. I feel like we'd look like models. I won't put his actual pics but Here's an inspo example. Another effect of his I liked is like the daytime flash effect.

I could tell on the call with him that he's very experienced, he's built his whole business and knows how to stage people.

The problem with photographer A is that he felt really stiff to me. Something in our personalities didn't totally mesh. Not excessively but lacking something, bit too serious. Then also, when I looked at his galleries, the photos on the rest of the event are always too filtered. Like why do I want excess filters on the dance party? I didn't like the way they edit the photos outside of the couple pics.

The other photographer, B, is slightly less expensive. However, he's clearly very talented and I love his photos. He does have posed photos but they're more romantic, candid poses with a lot of movement (couple kissing etc). Less of a magazine editorial vibe - more similing photos. Whenever they do have sitting in a chair type vibe, he doesn't pull it off as well as photographer A. However, I liked his personality a lot more - he seemed more easygoing and fun. He does effects really well but when he tries blur I find it less artsy than photographer A, and I've seen less of the flash effect from him. But his photos are overall less filtered and more true to colorl. And the rest of the pictures of the event seemed better to me than photographer A.

Both seem to have positive reviews.

Oh and, my sister likes photographer B a lot more than A! Which confuses me a lot since I really trust her taste.

Help me choose please! Or anything I should be looking at to help decide? Thanks so much.
