Hours of Photography

How many hours is your photographer going to be present? I just had to add this to my contract and I'm nervous that I added too much...I figured:

7:00 am- hair makeup
8:45 am- leave for RH for pictures
9:30-10:30-pictures
11:30 ceremony
12:00-CH
1-5- reception.

I put down on the contract starting at 7 and ending at 5 pm. Is this unreasonable or typical? I do want the nice pictures of getting ready. What does your contract specify?

Okay, I didn't want to seem too crazy. My photographer had spaces to put in event time, so I kind of went crazy with the hours (it's unlimited preset time, but I don't want to seem TOO crazy).

Doing all this stuff from a distance is driving me INSANE.

I'm having my photographer from 12-12. I will be ready and dressed by that point because i wasnt set on having those pics. My pics will be from 12-115 then the photographer will go do the guys from 1:15-2 then we have our ceremony then our outdoor pics from like 315-415 then a 45 minute drive to our reception then an hr to do pics at the hall and then our reception from 6-12. Yikes! lol what a long day! but it will still fly by....

Ah, I didn't even think about all the girls who have their RH/ceremony site separate!

I just don't want to be uber-demanding. I'm really excited about this photographer...I'll share the info when I get the contract back from her (don't want to jinx anything!!!).
