tom, i will shoot around 200-230 and deliver average of 200, sometimes 150-180 if they're on a budget... of which, an average of 30-40 are then chosen for their album, and they get to keep the rest of their proofs which are 5x7s, UNLESS they have chosen a "digital" package whereby they receive their proofs on cd only, and just get the prints of their chosen shots for their album. sorry if i sound naive, but is that bad/weird? i thought that was normal. in fact, i mentioned yesterday i think, about my "hit and miss" rate, and like i said, it IS getting better, but embarrassingly (and NO-ONE laugh!), i still have about 30-40 of what i call "rejects" per wedding that the couple will never see - eg eyes closed, underexposed, faces too shiny etc
actually it is funny you should say that about the makeup as it is true! if i am doing their makeup, it is a sacrifice that they make that i generally can't shoot the groom's preparations as well, obviously, i can't be in two places at once. fine by me though, as i hate doing boring grooms by themselves! lol, at least AFTER the ceremony they have relaxed a bit, usually have a few beers under the belt and are more willing to do some fun and interesting stuff... tan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "tom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 5:33 PM Subject: RE: Re[2]: card storage in the field > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Tanya Mayer Photography [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > per wedding?!!?!? are you kidding me?!!?!?!? > > > > I shoot 150-200 USUALLY, up to 300 if it is a HUGE celebration... > > You're probably too busy doing eveyone's makeup and washing the limo. > > You shoot 200 frames total?
