duet

who are you meeting with. We met with Eric. Keep in mind that he has a somewhat heavy accent. I'm fine with accents and have no problem but just wanted to let you know ahead of time.

I love going to their studios though! It's so comforting and warm (with goldfish in the pond inside).

I don't think about asking for anything specific is that important with him cuz he pretty much covered everything before we had a chance to ask. If you are interested in video make sure you ask him about it cuz FH and i forgot and had to go back to look.

I don't know who I am meeting with, I spoke to someone with a heavy accent and I could understand him fine. I will definatly bring up the video. I wish Fh could go with me I am going alone so chances are we will be going back no matter what.

They are pretty cut and dry. Ask about Thank you Cards and make sure they throw in the Engagement Shoot.

Will do. Do you know if they do the fold over type thank you's or the old style with the wallet size pics inserted?

good luck!!!

some questions to ask any photographer:

how pics do they average?
are the rights to the pics included?
how many hours is included?
ask about the albums...how many pics in each?

Good to know!

I never thought to ask about the rights to the pics. Do you mean if they are marked or not?

Also does anyone know do they do actual proofs or only a cd?

They do both

i'm getting....

12x12 acrylic album with 75-80 pics
2 parent albums
all proofs on high res cd
4x6 proofs
engagement shoot and 20xsomething size pic to display at the reception
umm....
11x14's and all that stuff
full day
2 photographers
i think thats it
no watermarks or anything on proofs.

Thanks I will update everyone later. I am just begining my search though so I doubt I will have a decision made tonight.

Wish I did though I love checking that list of vendors off!

NEGOTIATE. NEGOTIATE. NEGOTIATE. Eric is great. He will give you alot of stuff that's not included in their standard packages if you ask.

Things to ask for:

Extra time for photographers
E-pics
Thank yous
Special Pages in album (if you like those metallic type pages - you'll see when you get there. I love them)
And anything you consider important.

Good luck!

When you ladies say 'FULL DAY' what does that mean.

I have 1 photog for 10 hours and the other photog and video for 9 hours. Duet wouldn't give me more without paying extra.

TIA
