I know you will say what a great job they did, but my wife has trained with the best in Canada.
I am not trying to start a fight here, but too many people get so wrapped up and emotional in the day they open their wallets because they believe the best cost that much.
Wrong.

She's been our family photographer for years....personally i didn't pay a ton, but I wouldn't mind paying a couple grand for someone to take my wedding pics...someone i KNOW i can trust...a professional...
the aprt that is outrageous in the industry is the charge for reprints, and/or albums....NEVER buy those from the photog. pay them to do the work....get your pics....and get out of there....
i've seen some people pay upwards of $5g's for their day...PHOTOS ALONE!!! to some....having their pics taken properly, and professionally ....there is no pricetag....
