what is a reasonable price for an on location photography shoot
I want to do family pictures and have photographer send a few hours with us and then give us a CD/DVD of print quality images that we can do whatever we want.
We paid $265 for this in Boston 2 years ago and I was able to print whatever pics I wanted and make my own photobooks.
I got a quote yesterday for $1800 to do this which seems absurd. I only paid about $900 for my wedding photographer and she was with us for 8 hours with an assistant and took amazing pictures and gave us them all on DVD to print, make albums, etc.
What is a reasonable/average price here in TN. I'm willing to spend more than $265, but I don't want to spend $1800
Re: what is a reasonable price for an on location photography shoot
A reasonable price is between $750-$1000. I know that seems like a lot but truthfully a lot goes into making the images special and what they are. I won't go into too much detail, but I would recommend Beanstalk Photography. She may be more affordable for you.
Here is the URL for Laurie Carpenter. She did my wedding photography five years ago. She is very affordable on her family sessions.
I think it's under $200.

:-)Check out Sarah Gutin too (www.eyerisphotography.com). She did my wedding photos & we loved her--very laid back & easy to work with. We got the CD & rights to our images & were able to do whatever we want to do with them!
Good luck!
