Paying for e-pics?

audreyjem · May 2011

If you don't mind me asking, how much are you paying for e-pics?

Our session was included in the package we purchased for the wedding, but to buy the digital rights to the images, it will cost $200. To buy the rights to an individual image, it costs $25, and to just get prints, it costs from $7 and up, depending on the size.

I was planning on making a guest book on shutterfly, and using about 25 images (image on one side of the spread, space for guests to sign/leave messages on the other side).

I guess I assumed I the e-pics would be included in the fact that we're paying for the rights to the wedding pics, since the session was included, but its not the case.

If you get the rights to the pictures, can't you print them as much as you want? Mine prices are pretty much exactly like yours..

Our e-session is included in our wedding package, as well as a hi-res CD with rights to print up to 5x7 (for both).

Our session and a disk of all the edits/prints were included in our package

Ours were $150, but it went towards our wedding package, because if you buy a wedding package, the e-pics are free

Sabrina- Yes, if we buy the rights we can do whatever we want with them, including as many prints as we like. I think it's worth it, and $200 seems like nothing to me right now, but I don't want to set the precedent that another $200 here and there is ok... haha.

our e-session was included in our package which includes a high-res disk.

can you tell your photog that you thought the disk was included? maybe they'll cut you a deal.

Ours is going to be $175, which includes the rights to all the pictures, 2 locations in 2 hours & an album for the reception. This is separate from our wedding package. We wanted to try her out before we book because she isn't technically a professional even though her pics are great and she's done a lot of weddings already.

mine were included in my package

missmelanie81 · May 2011

Mine is $100 and we get the rights to the Cd

My pictures are supposed to be tomorrow if it doesnt storm. We are paying $50. She is going to give us the cd with release of rights. We moved up the time so she has plenty of time which I guess means unlimited. We are doing at least two different locations and changing at least twice. I might change once more in the car in between places as well.

I think ours is $300 for the e-session, but to get the disc it is between $200 and $300.

Haha, ok I don't feel bad anymore... gotta love the difference cost between Massachusetts and the rest of the country. I feel so vain spending $200 for a few REALLY good pictures of FI and I, but its worth it :)

$150 base price...to inclued 1 -11x14 & 24 proofs. We also paid a fee for her traveling though. For an advance copy of the CD with printing rights only $30! If we wait till after the wedding the CD would have been free. We just got to see the photos & they are amazing!! She had about 202 shots for us! We spent hours traveling around getting photos in various areas.
