Do not go in and say, 'this is what I want to spend.' or, 'We are looking to spend 3500.' or anything like that. Be firm, but not rude. They need your business, but, they will get someone else just as easily! If something seems outrageous, say it.

That's all I can think of.

Definitely try the, 'I spoke with so and so, at so and so, and this was the price they quoted me.'

sorry, I'm not a born negotiator either, we tried but our photographer was pretty set in his prices. I guess it depends on who you speak to, most places won't lower the price but they might throw more stuff in to the package
