I prefer Marcel.

The first one's pics don't look as professional.

I agree with @Smurfette:! 2!

#2 ! Photos look really nice and you get more digital files!

#2 for sure. I prefer having more pictures in general. Our wedding/maternity photographer gave us all of the digital files for all of our shoots. For me, that's most important as well as quality. With LO's hospital photos, we got a few which were enough to put together an announcement. Go with #2.

#1's quality isn't very good. I chose #2 for the quality and for the digitalis.

I can't speak for that particular photographer but at my recent photo session we were told 10 digital images, but she gave us 59! I think it has more to do with they promise 10, but more than likely more will turn out great. Same thing happened with the newborn photographer we had- we were inly promised 25 and received 60.

I am in the minority and actually like the style of the first photographer better. I like the natural, relaxed feeling- it's very "lifestyle photography" whereas the second seems very posed. But it depends too on what style you prefer. I think their quality is comparable, but their styles are different.

Are you doing studio portraits or outside shots?
