Hi Ladies,

 

I'm looking for a photographer for our e-pics and I have no idea what is a reasonable price.  I emailed a photographer and this is his response below.  What do you think ladies????


Our current special for 2hours on location engagement session is $350 (regular is $550+tax)

Upto 35 miles from 90745… (more than 35+ miles… $20-$40 additionla for gas)

Please me know the location you like your engagement session,,

-All images on cd..process ready 4 prints.

-Normally I deliver 200-400 images…process ready 4 print..

No album..no prints.. you do your own prints.

 

--$200 deposit by mail.

--$150 on session date.

    I think that is a reasonable price for E-pics.....But it doesn't include any prints.  Ours was about $300 or so, but we got tons of prints, plus a CD with all rights.  Each region is different, so I don't know if that the normal price/package for your area.

    Our 1st e-pic session was $200, no prints, but all rights to the pix on a CD, edited.
    Our 2nd e-pic session was free, BUT had she not gifted them to us, they would have been $150, for the same package as the 1st person. Both included 2 hrs.

    Mine is different because I am going with an amateur who is also a friend.  Our e-pics are $70 for a 2 hour session.  I think we get 20 pics or something like that with edting.

    The photographers I researched ranged from $150-$200 in the Central PA area.  I would ask him if he gives a discounted e-pic price if you book him for your wedding because 2 or 3 of the photographers we looked into offered $50 off e-pics.  IMO it seems a bit high considering no prints are included, but it would be good to post to your local board to see what other brides in your area are paying.  Good luck!

    Ours came with our total photography package, but $350 sounds reasonable.

    Sophia yours is going to be more because you are in Orange County/LA area.  California is always more expensive.  I hate it but that seems to be true. I can't wait to get back to the East Coast!
    Until the first full year of being one! Anniversary
