Remember don't sacrifice quality and good product for price.. I absolutely adore the style of my photographers... and their price cannot be beat, yet...

You def got a good deal!

I hear ya about the quality - obviously thats the most important... but i do have to say, some of these photographers are just INSANELY ridiculous with prices!
