photographer question

Does anyone think that 4500.00 to start off is a lot for video and pics. I've just started looking and that seems like a lot..Maybe I'm just hoping it to be. Thanks

that's about what we are paying. I think it is normal with both included.

It is in my mind...That's with basic packages?

Re: photographer question

the photographer said '4500 to start and then we can discuss what else you want.' its a lot isn't it?

Re: photographer question

well- what are you getting for that??

We are getting a 50 page album, 2 parent albums and a bunch of 5x7, 8x10, etc.

Plus b/w rolls, etc.. a couple other things here and there.

Our DVD-- is titled and we shot a segment when we took our e=pics- about how FH proposed, etc.

Re: photographer question

not sure what is included but it sounds like just the basic to start..should i be expecting prices like that from all photographers?

If they are not clarifying what exactly is included at all... then to me that sounds shady.

I got quotes from higher end photogs for about what you were quoted, this is photo only not video and we are talking top quality work.

So, personally, I would keep looking.

Sounds like a lot to me. Check out Wild Rose and DUET. Their prices were much better.

Re: photographer question

make sure you are fully aware of what that price includes. If that included everything, I would say go for it, but as a starting point...? not so much. Shop around.

That's about average, you could probably find some that are about 500-800 less but you have to look into what is offered for that price & go from there.

definately find somebody that's more specific as to what's included. Our photographer, right off the bat was like, 'Okay, you get this, this, this, and all of this for this much.' (you get the idea ). That sounds pretty high to me anyway.
