You have no idea how helpful your replies have been for me.

Lisa- I am so sorry to hear that your photographer turned out to be so crap. I would have been massively kicking up a stink to the owner.

That is awesome to all the people that got great shots from family and friends. I know that this is likely but I feel like I shouldn't risk it just in case.

Okay maybe the deal I have been offered is not that bad after all.

This photographers work is amazing and his attention to detail is present everywhere.

He has given me two options

1. $3500 for a full package with
- a 10x10 designer leather & glass wedding album.
- This will also include approx. $1500 on accommodation & travel.
- It will also include 2 x A3 framed images OR 1 A1 image (large professional framed & printed images).
- 2 dvd slideshows of your favourite photographs to tell the story of your day to your favourite love songs.
- Plus all images from the day (breakfast, getting ready, family shots, ceremony, location shots, reception start to finish) on a dvd/cd in HIGH resolution. I will also photoshop any imperfections (if you wish) out of any photos and include some black and white, artistic & sepia images as well.

ALTERNATIVELY

2. $2800 with
- FULL resolution images on dvd
- high definition slideshow with your love songs, i can do 2x the slideshow with cover etc for your family if you like for this price.
- travel & accomodation

Either way it is still a lot of money but I LOVE his work and have seen it first hand at a wedding and then the final products. Arhhh decisions.
