Just looking at our BEO and it says that we requested Rick or Mike. I don't remember mentioning that since the names don't ring a bell. Maybe that is standards. Regina rings a bell as a photographer to request and I thought there was another one.

Thanks so much for your help.
 
I had Joe and Regina and loved them! Regina shot photo journalistic style (I had the add one package) so I do like her photos better, but that may be just because of the style preference. When I requested them, I read a lot of good things about both of them previous to my wedding and seen tons of pics from Regina (specifically with Lorelei528, Kcampbell (who I beleive had both) and Bridie1996).

Amy also seems to be a big hit on here as well.
 
Does anyone have the link to the portfolios of each photographers pics? I had found it once before but am having no luck now:confused:
 

Boardwalk_bride-thanks for your prompt response. I have actually taken the morning off from work to get some of this stuff taken care of so it really helps to have answers.
 
My daughter had Mike Strickland and Joe Duncan for her wedding. They are Disney photographers and they did a wonderful job!!! and they were very nice to work with. Her pictures are beautiful!! also used Disney videography and they were wonderful as well. She had a Wishes wedding at the WP and reception at the Grand Floridian.
 
Boardwalk Bride already said this, but Regina was ours and we thought she was great. Check out my PJ for a review of her and some of her pictures.

Amy gets really good reviews too, so we had requested either of them in hopes we'd get one. We got Regina for both the ceremony and our bridal portraits.
 
We requested either Amy or Mike and got Amy who we loved! She has a really good eye (she even told us that she's made it her mission to try and out-do the other DPS photographers cause she knows that more and more brides are wanting non-traditional photography). Pics and links are in my PJ.
 
we had Rick, he was wonderful

We had Rick too...well, for our engagement photos. I second the fact that he is wonderful. He really put us at ease and we made sure to request him for our wedding :thumbsup2
 
As Karen (Boardwalk Bride) said, I had Regina & Joe (and Mike and Tina) for our Wishes wedding. Mike shot our rehearsal dinner, Joe and Tina did our wedding day, and Regina did our MK shoot. We didn't request anyone since I was unaware we could. Mike was a very personable guy and I liked working with him. His "disadvantage" is that he only took pics at the rehearsal/welcome dinner which wasn't all that exciting (he did take WONDERFUL fireworks pics though). I really liked Joe and Tina, but if I could request only 1 person it'd be Regina. She is just a doll and was really fun to work with.

I don't have a PJ/TR, but you can get my log in info on the sticky at the top. Good luck, but know you will be in good hands. :goodvibes
 
We had Regina for our DP and Epcot shoot. She was really fun and easy to work with! We haven't gotten our pictures back yet but I liked the ones she showed us in her camera.
 
AMY!!! She is amazing. She did out Magic Kingdom pictures and she was sooo wonderful!!! I have heard bad thinks about Mike....Sorry!
 
I appreciate hearing everyone's opinion-both positive and negative.
 
we had rick and stephanie, for some reason they wont let me post the collages photo link for viewing disney photos but if you have it from other brides our login is Wallock / Chivinski Wedding, password 1971.
I like the pictures, alot to choose from and variety but find them a bit posed at times, and wish they were a little more creative. The biggest thing I was disappointed about was no good shots of my family and friends.
 
Amy is the best! I requested her for my dessert party and MK shoot and I loved her pictures, I wish I had done another shoot somewhere so I could have more of her work!

She made us feel at ease, gave us direction, knew flattering angles and poses and even did a special photo that I designed. She wasn't in a "rush" and it showed. She cares about her work and I would love to be photographed by Amy again!!
 
Thank you both for responding. If only we could plan before hand which photographer we would get it would be so much easier. I know there is another bride on the day we get married and are schedule for the MK shoot but she doesn't appear to be on the boards so maybe she won't know what photographer to request :)
 
I'm using an outside photographer for my Wedding Day, but am requesting Regina for my Bridal Portrait. Our photographers worked for DPS for over 12 years and said we can't go wrong with Regina.:thumbsup2
