I hired French's for my wedding after comparing numerous other photographers (quality of work and prices) in the southern Illinois area. Not only do they charge a fair price (perhaps the most competitive in the area) but their service and the quality of their photographs are second to none. A family owned business, French's has been around for at least 3 generations and their current photographer, Dan, is a genius. Becky, who assisted him at my wedding, was an absolute joy to work with. Anyone who has planned a wedding (or witnessed the planning of one), knows how difficult and frustrating it can be to coordinate multiple vendors (ie, caterers, music, decorators, cake, etc.). Of all the business I worked with through this event, French's was the most reliable and consistent. As a long time resident of southern Illinois, I would, and do, recommend them without reservation. They are wonderful. You will be beyond satisfied. read more
