As my FH and I start to search for a good photographer, I stopped to ask myself that very same questions? How much should I really spend on my wedding photos?
My FH and I were sitting down discussing this over the past weekend and I reminded him that although the DJ is important and the entertainment makes our family and friends have a good time, the pictures are forever!! And I love good, quality photos.
What's the average are you guys spending on photography?
How Much are you Spending on Your Wedding Photos? - Long Island Weddings
Ours will be just under 2k when we add in an album That price is for:
1 Photog, 1 Assistant All day coverage literally from the morning getting ready until the last guest leaves he said. 300 4x6 prints 31 enlargements (combo of 5x7s 8x10s and 11x13s) All Images retouched Photo CD Premium 8x10 Album full digital design 75 Thank Yous
We booked him because a friend used him and I saw first hand his work is amazing. He is a little lesser known but that is what keeps his price down, also albums are add ons so we didn't have to worry about paying for one prior to the wedding, and his turn around time for proofs is only 2 weeks! I love that I can get out my thank yous in a timely fashion instead of 6 months later! If anyone wants his info just fm me I am happy to share.

We are using ADA and paying $2700 for edited proofs full day of coverage with the owner of the company who is well known in the industry. This also includes our video (basic package). No albums. I believe just photo was 1600

Wow!
Just realized more people responded to my post. I'm glad the articles were helpful for some of you. My FH & I found a photography company that gave us a great package for $2500 which includes: (1) photographer, 8 hours, thank you cards, all images on a disc, an online wedding gallery, a wedding 12x12 wedding album with 100 of our pics and an engagement shoot. We didn't do video yet. We are going back and forth with that idea.
