Philadelphia?

Hi all.

Any videographers or photographers from Philadelphia here?

I am planning to relocate myself there, so I was looking for some feed back on our field, also I will be available for edits or second shooter.

any one?

thanks

Re: Philadelphia?

I'm here, not sure what info you're really looking for?! Being the 5th largest metro it's obviously pretty competitive. Travel typically goes west to Harrisburg & East to the shore, north to Central Jersey before you hit the NYC market & south to Maryland/Delaware. Some photographers have moved down from NYC. There's a few boutique studios which I've heard mixed things about, and then solo shooters & independants. As with anywhere, prices range from very high, to mid, to low. Center City weddings are popular, which are great due to the urban scenery, but parking fees &/or walking numerous blocks can take a toll on ya during the day. You'll shoot at the Art Museum (Rocky steps), South Broad Street, and Love park before you know it.

Oh yeah, hit up Wawa late night:)

Re: Philadelphia?

Likewise. If you have questions about where to live/move etc feel free to write me. There's a decent forum Philadelphiaspeaks.com which is helpful as well. A bit more micro-neighborhood related, but there's some general info sections as well. Out of curiosity, why u moving here, family/friends here? Overall it's relatively affordable, not like NYC, SF, Boston or Miami etc from what I hear..
