E-pics aren't in our package, and they would cost $300 extra. We've already sent out STDs so we don't really 'need' them.
Would you pay the extra for them? I would love to be able to work with our photographer as kind of a test run for our wedding, but I would also like to use that $$ elsewhere.
Opinions?

Re: Opinion on Engagement Pics...
we did not do e-pics. we have so many pictures over the years that i didn't see a need for more pictures.
my mom had a professional photog at my shower so we got some really great pictures that night.

The most important thing is making sure you're both comfortable with your photographer...if you dont like the $300 pictures you wont like the $2,000 (or whatever) pictures

Personally, I wouldn't waste the money. Epics were included in our package but honestly, we didn't want to do them. We did them b/c we wanted to get a feel for the photographer but it definitely wasn't necessary. But we haven't done anything with the pictures.

Since you've already sent out your std's I would say the pics aren't very necessary unless you plan to do photo table numbers or a photo guest book. We didn't send out std's but we used our epics for our guest book and our photo card box.

If it's in your budget and you want a test run, then I say go for it. I've never even heard of epics until I came on this site. I'm happy that I did mine though, but they were included in our photog package.

I would get the engagement pics especially if they are only $300. But thats JMO. Plus FH and I really don't have any pro pictures together. So I guess it's really whatever YOU want.

Nope..If they were included. We ended up paying like $150 extra though for prints and such since only wallets were included. If I had to do over again, I wouldn't.

FH didnt wanto to do them so we removed them from our package. I then decided I wanted them but FH refused to pay for them. So I went on craigslist and found 2 photographers who are doing them for free. So I get my photos and FH gets his free.

ITA...we parted ways with our first photographer because we didn't like our epics.
If you don't want them don't pay the extra money - we only did ours b/c it was something free he was throwing in as a promotion he was doing at the time otherwise would never have done it, not a big fan of the whole idea in general...
