Can everyone tell me what you paid for engagment pics IF they were NOT included in photography package.
I'm looking into this and I have NO idea how much I should be paying.

Thanks

Re: Engagement Pictures Pricing

VIP charges $75. I don't remember how many proofs are included. I am probably going to a JCPenney, Sears type of place b/c I have to take pics before March. There not exactly e-pictures but at least we will have formal shots. There is no way I am dealing with the cold.

Re: Engagement Pictures Pricing

We had a free engagement shoot but then we had to pay for whatever pictures we wanted. I think we got one 8x10,two 5x7's and a bunch of wallets all of the same photo and one additional black and white photo (different picture) in an 8x10 for around $80
I'm not sure of the price because it was a few months ago.

Re: Engagement Pictures Pricing

Our engagement shots were free as well (Verdi). The charge varies based on the size of the photos...

Re: Engagement Pictures Pricing

Wait a minute - for those who use Verdi, the shoot is free, but you just pay for prints?

Is this regardless of whether or not you book them for your wedding?

Re: Engagement Pictures Pricing

We are using Verdi and will have a free engagement shoot. We will pay for whatever reprints we order. We have booked them for our wedding so I'm not sure what there policy is on just engagement pictures.

Re: Engagement Pictures Pricing

I think the only thing that Verdi provides is the free photo shoot. Becauase we booked them for our wedding and after our engagement photos were developed, Rich told us the fee if we wanted any of the photos...
