I have a question about a Photographer...One photographer I am very interested in says they shoot 250 photos...another one I went to says they shoot 500+..what is everyone else hearing from photographers they are visiting with? Should I ask the 250 if they will shoot more? I am worried they will use all those shots up at the church.

Re: Photo Question
250 seems a little low. Mine took about 500 to 750. But I had two photographers.

Re: Photo Question
my photographer says 250 but i know it will be more..Plus I know their are 'must have photo's' i want.
i know a few of girls who were told one amount but received almost double the amount.
dont worry about the 250.

Re: Photo Question
I do not have a photographer yet... but I have went to talk to a few and they all said they shoot a min. of 400... I think that 250 is too low...

Re: Photo Question
my photographer is great. you are definatly guaranteed 350+ with him, but in my contract it says 250 proofs.
I am not worried at all about my photographer. I know he'll do a wonderful job and capture every moment of my day

Re: Photo Question
Thank you for all of those suggested pictures that should be taken..I am seriously thinking of asking them to take more and see what they say....Queens Bridal is our top choice..they have our dj, but we still are thinking about the photographer
