Thank you. I def felt my price was fair and when compared to other photographers that I felt matched my skill level there starting rate was 1300, So I feel confident in my decision. A little sad b/c I would have liked the exposure and experience to add to my portfolio but It is obvious now after...

LOL I responded apologizing that it was not low enough, that I did cut corners by 650-700 and that I understood etc. I then said I would love to be there and would love to see them that I miss them and I left it at that! IF I get an invite (he hasn't asked for an address yet) then I will attend...

Alright guys. So just in case you all are curious. I sent them my Pricing today! It took a lot for me to come to this pricing, but after looking over prices for their area and including everything I sent him this Wedding Pricing Package A: $899 4 hours of coverage CD of high resolution images...

Thank You Moose! I agree with you

PHIL Blunt is good. I Like Blunt, I am a very blunt, cute throat to the point kind of person. and Yes I agree Value is the issue b/c that is my biggest down fall, I don't really know my value. On another note though, I have done a research of the small area and can only locate 6 photographers...

Jay Thank you. I have seen that done but was not sure how to do it! :) I do have a wedding contract that I plan to put into play. I received some advice from another forum that I should get my website back up post my wedding images and post a pricing page and then direct him there and possibly...

I do not know if they have contacted anyone else, The day they posted the picture of their wedding announcement on FB, I commented on it and said Jamie if you need a photographer let me know. He responded with He had thought about asking me but wasn't sure if I would travel that far b/c it was...

That is why I plan to have it a contract deal, the pictures from the above wedding I attached are from a friends wedding and it ruined 17 years of friendship b/c she was a huge Bridezilla and everything turned horrible, and that is why I am being professional.

Well Dave that is kind of a hard answer, lol we are more than fb friends but not close friends. As I mentioned in another comment I am the one who confirmed his now ex-wives affair, so it kind of changed a lot for both of us, so now we are more facebook friends but even more so because I moved...

I do REALLY want the experience and folio that is why I do not want to charge to much but also do not want to charge to little and it label me as the Cheap photographer

I have not been invited, I would not say we are that kind of friends, we use to be (LONG STORY) but My husband told him about his wives affair and I knew the details so by the end I am the one who confirmed it. So kind of distant friends I hope that makes sense

Thank you for that! I am new to this forum so Still learning and all! :)

Sorry about that hun! I am new to this site. The small font is harder for me to read. lol :)

Alright guys I need some advice. I got asked by a friend to photograph his wedding but I have NO CLUE what to charge for one, I have only photographed 2 other weddings (which I think 1 turned out great, and my clients loved so thats what matters) Anyways I will have to travel 200-250 miles and...
