How many pictures did they guarantee you? How many pictures will there be in the album?
Parents albums?
Digital or film?
B&W or color?
What style of photography?
How many photographers?

If you have the answers to these questions and you like the package, it sounds like a good plan. With photo and video, Im paying about $3700.

Re: picture prices

i opted for no parent albums, black and white for any picture that i want, 24 pictures in the album, if he needs an assistant he would bring one - no charge, film not digital. i liked that he gave all of the proofs back and negatives after we ordered out book

I think you really need to be careful with your photos. I know they can be exepnsive but its the only thing you will have left from your day. $1900 sounds very cheap but is it worth it to go the cheap route with your wedding photographs? To me, the pics are the most important thing and we adjusted our bedget accordingly so that would could afford to get an excellent photographer and Im 100% confident that she will do an amazing job. You get what you pay for. Just my thoughts

2 photographers(one photojournalist, one posed pics)
500-600 proofs minimum- black and white, sepia and special color work included
11x14 album
2 leather parent folios
1-11x14
1X8X10
75 Thank you(if I need more, I just ask)
1 11x14 royal album with 45-50 pics
For an extra 500 I can upgrade to a soho style album with 60-70 pics after the wedding
This is exactly what I wanted and at the price I wanted to pay. I also love their work and have heard no complaints about them.

BTW- Their prices have gone up since Sept. I think about 600 more for my package.
