First off, sorry if this is long. I am really wondering opinions on a 2nd shooter? Do you think it is worth it?
I am inbetween two photographers right now. Here are the differences:
Photographer # 1 is only on photographer ( I believe). But for $1300 we can get 8 hours of coverage, 1 album for ourselves, 2 parent albums, thank you cards, a cd with our images and printing rights, online proofing and a proof book, and $100 print credit.
Photographer # 2 is all day coverage with a second shooter. But for $1500 thats it, only the coverage and then the online proofing. She charges another $500 for a cd and printing rights and does not have prinitng packages, its all alacarte, which her prices are resonable.
I guess my big thing is is the second photography really worth it? My FSIL is a professional photography, but she is in the wedding party. So i know that at the reception she will have her camera out and will be snapping away. So its only the ceremony that we wont have her photos from.
What are you ladies opinions? Do you think a second photographer is a must? I plan on meeting with both of them in July and hopefully I just click with one and know.
Thanks in advance!
