Create Your Own Package | Birmingham Wedding Photographer

Brides sometimes ask why I don’t offer packages.  There are certain minimums that I think all brides deserve.  An engagement session so I can get to know the couple and capture them in non-wedding day  clothes.  A full day’s coverage with two photographers.  A custom album designed with the bride’s input.  Other than that, different people have different needs, so I have worked to price things competitively and allow each couple to build a personal, perfect-for-them package from my offerings.

Here’s an example of what someone could do with a budget of about $3000 for photography and prints.  Most of the cost is being absorbed by the bride’s parents, so she would like to be sure to thank them with a small album of their own.  The groom’s parents, their grandparents and others are welcome to order their own “mom’s albums.”

for $3050

An engagement shoot.  Wedding day coverage (up to 10 hours, by two experienced photographers).  Online proofing, an online slideshow and a facebook gallery.

UPGRADE album of the softest leather and thick, mounted pages.  1 mom album (with the same design, at 8×8) for the bride’s parents.

a set of 100 5×7 prints.  Some of these will be duplicates to be given as gifts.

3 medium wall prints (11×14 – 14×14) to be hung in their new home.

3 small wall prints (8×10 – 10×10) to be given to the parents of the bride and groom.

a DVD of all pictures at their highest resolution and a DVD of the slideshow (Gifts from me because the order has over $500 worth of prints and $750 worth of prints and album orders combined.)
