| Assuming they do the full day of wedding photography and touch-ups on photographs. They don't do the development but give you disc of at least 200 photographs. |

| Yes I think $500 would be fine since they aren't a professional. |

| I think 500 seems steep....does this person have references? what is their training? do they have samples of their work? I would say between $200 and $500, but no more than $500. Since the pictures are digital, all you are paying for is the person's time. |

| a friend of mine did our pictures and he did just what your asking, we gave him $500. to me he's putting in at least a few days work (a full day at the wedding and a good amont of time doing touch ups) this is the same amount of work a pro would do, most of them don't use film anymore and have a company they send the digital copies to for printing. so at $500 your still saving at least $500 if not more. and most professional packages will include a few pictures, maybe an 8 by 10 and possible a small photo album, but not much. you still have to pay for your pics.check out www.mpix.com for printing your pics, they do a fab job (way better then walmart and cheap)as for photo album check out www.mypublisher.com you can do a really big coffee table book starting at about $60 and they run promotions all the tmegood luck |

| You don't charge the photographer whether it's a professional or amateur. They tell you how much it will cost you to have their service at your wedding and reception. Amateur or not the vendor sets the price and their fees. |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
