Well Stu down here its hard right now, problem is so many so called Photographers that maybe plumbers or factory workers in the week under cut the pro tog by offering weddings at £150 to £200

I dont think really most people know how hard weddings are and you have one chance, but people still think gosh why pay £1000 when joe blogs will do it for £200

what people dont general see is a whole day wedding with bridal prep is two photographers, the branded albums from Italy and New zealand start for me at £300 to £600 each

I get home from a days shooting and down load each card 4 times on to separate HD
I then go through each card and delete images where eyes maybe closed or page boy is digging in his nose etc

then the photoshop process starts this in its self is a weeks work

album lay out another weeks work

wear and tear on the camera, my travel cost etc

It amazes me the amount people will pay for a venue for one day the most expensive attire your wear for one day, the most expensive taxi service yet scimp on the photography the one lasting memory of the day they scimp on and will pay £150 for a CD which probably wont even print
