Given your skills, Paul, I think the bride & groom are getting a great deal.
If I was a bride, I wouldn't want to look through 1000 proofs. That would
make my head spin. Cheers, Christine

Of course I don't charge as much as those 1000 pic guys. $600 gets you
DVDs of 350 to 400 images, all converted to RAW and sized for 300 dpi 8
x12 to 8 x10, depending on the crop. Everything else is extra: prints,
books, slide show CDs, but I find that most buy some extras.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't think I could make it through 1- 1,500
photo proofs. Gosh, that's a lot. I think Paul's got the right idea:
600 and get it down to 400. Cheers, Christine

Dave,
1,000-1,200 photos is a lot. How many do you post?
I went to a wedding and shot some pix.
I showed some of them here -
http://picasaweb.google.com/rf.sullivan/DianaEricWeddingPhotos#
Now my daughter has a link to the photographer's web site.
They have posted 1,000+ photos from the wedding.
42 pages of 25 thumbnails each, linking to larger photos.
This is positively overwhelming. You've gotta show less!
What's the practice out there these days?
Regards, Bob S.

Since every one else beat me to the boob jokes, I'll comment in the

I like it, would prefer to have the mike more away from the face, but
thats a minor nit.
Don't feel to bad Christine. I often shoot 1000-1200 a weekend and
sell maybe 10 of those.

Well, what a f***ing, bl**dy miserable night of photography I just
had. I
shot 79 frames--I say again, I shot 79 frames--and I only got this
one shot
to show for it. Ugh! I fought with focus all night: I couldn't even
get
the stone titties on the Greek statue to come out sharp. Couldn't
get any
interesting expressions. And it was a great night of poetry--
lots of
animated performance poets. Nothing went as planned:
1) I wanted to get some nice shots of the famous Green Mill interior
for the
our good PDML folks in and from Chicago--you know, a neighborly
gesture.
Well, I've come up empty handed.
2) I wanted a good shot or two of two poets from Australia reading to
night--you know, a kind of international neighborly gesture. Well,
I've
come up empty handed.
3) I wanted to show off my sister reading her poetry tonight--you
know, a
kind of sibling promotional gesture. Well, I've come up empty
handed.
I think I'm glad I have a day job.
Anyway: This is Marc Smith, father of performance and slam poetry.
He's a
really nice guy and lots of fun to watch and listen to.
