[QUOTE="Essence of Imagery, post: 5346, member: 920"] I do shoot low-budget weddings, more correctly called elopements. As a matter of fact, I shot two at nearly the same time, just because I was there. I was shooting a San Francisco City Hall wedding - the couple, and 4 friends, and while they were waiting in line to do the paperwork, a groom came up to me and asked if I wanted to make some extra money. The father had brought a p/s camera, but it broke, and they wanted some photos of the wedding. My clients were happy to let me go up there, because this couple was in line in front of them to get married, so it wasn't cutting into their ceremony. I only charged $150 per wedding - especially since I was there - and sent them a CD of high-resolution images. I love those kinds of weddings - simple, not much to it, so I don't need to spend a lot of time doing post-production, etc. to come up with the deliverable product. The people who I don't get are the ones who want to have a low-budget wedding, but have 200 people on the guest list. [/QUOTE]
