Hi Moms-

I'm looking for an affordable yet wonderful photographer for my daughter's birthday party. Someone who will come and photograph the whole event from beginning to end. Also do you know of anyone who can make photo montage dvd's as well? I think some photographers also do this. I'd like to have the collection of photos put to music on a DVD so my daughters can have these for keepsakes. Any referrals are very appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi D.,
I could definitely do this for you. I've been doing photography as a hobby for several years, but I haven't gotten into it professionally yet and would like to. As this would technically be my first paid job, I would do it for a deep discount and the hope that you would pass on my name if you like the work. My husband would do the DVD - he's a graphic designer/motion graphics artist. I mostly do candid photos, but can easily do more posed photos as well. The price would depend on the number of hours, but if you're interested we could discuss and work something out.

Of course, I have lots of experience with kids :)

Here's my website for you to check out some of my work: http://www.daisygrace.com (it's a work in progress). I really look forward to hearing from you.

Hi there!
My mother actually lives in Ireland! She was born and raised there and moved back 15 years ago...what part is your husband from?
In regards to your request, I can definitely handle creating beautiful video montages...our product is called the Relic DVD. We do not do the photography or video end for bday parties but provided with that material-we create wonderful keepsakes! I have the word out to a couple of photographers we work with ...what do you mean when you say affordable? In other words, what is your budget? We are local-out of Palatine. I noticed the other response has guy from LA....
If you have questions, feel free to call me,

Hi D.,
I'm sorry I don't have a photographer for you--but I do have someone who does photo montage DVD's. His website is davidbeerman.com. He is a freelance editor in LA who does VHS to DVD transfers as well as mantages. You pick the order of photos and all the music. He is the best!!! (and very reasonably priced compared to some local photographers I spoke to...) What a beautiful birthday gift for your daughter!

Vipul Amin at SayPaneer is wonderful. He is really talented with a camera, video and I think he can do the montage on the dvd as well. There is a website saypaneer.com and you can email Mr. Amin at ____@____.com has done anything from softball, basketball pics to dance, parties, etc. for us. If he is around, you know you are getting quality pictures and well I just cannot say enough about how good his photos turn out. He has provided us and our friends with some really amazing pictures. I think the costs have been very reasonable. I know he only hires quality assistants as well. Again, just cannot say enough about how wonderful we think his photography is.
Good luck.

Vipul Amin at Say Paneer is definitely the route to go. Lots of people I know have him photograph their parties, sports events, birthdays, weddings, etc. You and your family and friends can look at the pictures on line too to decide what you want. He is very professional and still friendly and fits in anywhere. We love him and his photos!

Hi D.,

I do exactly what you are asking for. I can shoot part of the party or the whole thing. My birthday package is 90 minutes for $90. With that you get a CD of all of the images on a CD to use however you please, like upload to Snapfish so family and friends can order affordable prints. Or I can host them on a site for people to view and make prints of whatever you want. I am currently offering a free slideshow DVD of the photos with mention of any of my adds or a referral. Other services include taking old photographs, scanning them, fixing them up and making them into a keepsake slideshow DVD. Please call or e-mail me to discuss details and rates: ____@____.com or ###-###-####.
