[QUOTE="STM, post: 113149, member: 12827"] These $300 to do your wedding hacks are a dime a dozen. They are the kind of people who DO advertise on Craig's List because it is free. But if the saying [I]caveat emptor[/I] was ever more applicable, it is here. You pays your money and you takes your chances. And if he hoses them up, there is NO DO-OVER. Technically if he has done a wedding and fleeced his victims for money, that makes him a professional. But his work is [B][I]STRICTLY amateur[/I][/B]. In fact, I would say that most of it [I][B]SUCKS[/B][/I]. But then again, you get what you pay for. If this guy needs ONE THOUSAND PICTURES to cover a full wedding he is nothing but a HACK. I don't think i have [I][B]ever[/B][/I] taken more than 200 for the whole shooting match; engagement, pre-wedding, wedding and reception, and in most cases[I] less[/I]. You do your clients a HUGE disservice if you force them to wade through 1000 photos to look for the best. That is a hallmark "spray and pray" technique as we called it in the Army and it is a signal loud and clear that this guy is a total rank amateur. And, if these guy's photos are any indication, his best work is actually his [B][I]LEAST WORST[/I][/B]. I don't do that many weddings and my engagement, newspaper, wedding and reception prices start at $1000 and go to about $2500 depending on how much they want done. And my packages don't take the cheesy way out and offer people CD's with the images on them. Mine actually include high quality [B][I]wedding albums [/I][/B]with 8x10 prints for the bride and groom and 5x7 prints for the families in them. That is the REAL professional way to do it I just looked at that guy's "website" and not only is his home page filled with TYPOS, his "portfolio" photos look like something your half-blind, 90 year old Aunt Gertrude took with a disposable Kodak camera she got at Walgreens. Accoridng to him he has been doing this for 7 years and his stuff has been published "ALL OVER THE WORLD" Yeah, maybe on websites telling you how NOT to do a wedding. LMAO [/QUOTE]
