I don't see any charges that are grossly overstated. The web expense is high if she's just talking about a personal site, but if she's on something like weddingwire.com, it's a low estimate. (Been there, wasted money on that to the tune of $450 annually.) She's also entering some of her living expenses, which is a bit odd, but provides some perspective. I also had to pay more for liability insurance than she has quoted. I found that $200 for a second shooter is about minimum in this market. > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > [email protected] > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
