I was SHOCKED about some of the things and how much they charged to do it

We are going to be doing this too to get the magazine style...an extra $500. But we saw a sample and it's beautiful, so I guess it's worth it Plus, it has a little over 100 pictures in it.

We're still trying to decide on a Thank You though. If this is already a tough decision I dread picking the photos for the album!

NO!
25 for each page you have more than 1 pic on
which i had a few

150 for some digital work (easy work!)

plus 100 for the upgrade in the leather cover (which i understand)

$150 for digital work??? Wow, that seems extreme. Though I haven't had that meeting with our photographer yet so I don't even know what extras we'll be charged for (other than the upgrade to the magazine album).

don't you ever read this board Jenn?!
Just kidding, you are not alone. Kristin had to bay a LOT extra for multiple pictures per page. We didn't do that, so we just paid for our extra pictures & our prints.

Luckily, on the way out of the apt, DH asked if we owed them any money & grabbed the check book.

Jenn- Sue ( BM) paid a LOT more for hers too!! Same things about having lots of pages with multiple pics!

We paid ALOT more! Most of our pages have multiple pics on it & we added extra pages.

we are doing the magazine style/coffee table style album too but we booked it as part of our package.

We are going to have to pay $400 more. My original price was for 36 pictures and I ended up with 90. I still haven't told DH yet!!

We actually didn't pay anything extra when it came time to do our album. That isn't because I wouldn't have liked to but for us it was $75 extra per picture, not per page since we had the digital album so I found a way to narrow it down to 60 proofs.

We didn't have to pay more. But we ended up CHOOSING to pay more (crazy I know) because we decided to go for a coffee table album instead of what came with our original package.
