We met with one choice of photographers. everyone was very nice and discussed everything in details, but we're not sure on the price. the basic package was: $2995 for 50 pic album, 2 parent albums 18 pics, and extra photos and thanks yous. there was a binding fee of $600-1200 depending on which type we use. and the video was $1995 with included 3 dvds and the raw footage. I kinda thought the binding fee would have been included in the package. can anyone tell me if i'm getting ripped off. I'd appreciate your photographer recommendations and a ball park figure of what they're charging you. Thanks for the help.

Re: Photography price help needed
I haven't heard of a binding fee...that is a bit odd.
How many hours will the photographer and videographer be with you?
We are using Photography by Christos ...his prices have changed since I booked him, but he's in your price range. Best of all, his customer service is AMAZING!! Check out his main website and blog to see samples of his work, and MY ALBUM has pics of our engagement photo session.
For videography, we're using Bellarino Productions ...Phil & Kate have been great to work with so far, and they offer various packages at different price points.
Good luck!

Re: Photography price help needed
i thought that a binding fee was normal- but i'm glad you're telling me otherwise. he didn't call it a binding fee- it's the fee to put photos in the book or make up the books based on the type of spread we use- like digital. but this is why we shop around. i'll take more suggestions and advice. Thanks!

Re: Photography price help needed
Binding fee??? Thats kind of weird, I would try to negotiate that.
Also, ask what the proofs come in? And how many pics they take?
