I am not normally a wedding photographer, but I was paid to do a wedding for a friend of mine and found out the mother of the bride is one of those... Well I get paid less than $200 and she seems to expect a $3000 quality, wink wink nudge nudge :cry

So, I need to ask, do you think she might be happy with these photos?
If not, any C&C would be help full, PP tips that could help?

the password is "test" with out quotes.

Thanks in advance!

Sheesh, if she's not happy, she' faking it.

I think you have done an excellent job, and for less than $200 she certainly _should_ be happy!

After seeing the results I would bill her the additional amount you really should have been paid. I wouldn't have taken the photos for that little, let alone processed them.

She got wayyyy more than her money's worth out of you. Some of them are just a good, quality documentation of the event, and some others are creative views that would probably do well in a challenge.

I think you did a greta job capturing the wedding and a lot of the guest shots, can not imagine what she felt she did not get. Great job!

Excellent work. $200... You work is worth a lot more than you charged. Great Job!

Super job--wouldn't change a thing. VERY nicely done :-)

Excellent shots. $200? Add another zero on.

I also think you did a wonderful job. Your work was worth way more then $200. I have to say I especially liked the shot of the point-and-shoot camera with the bride and groom in the screen. Very creative.

Maybe you should get Art's help in editing one of the mother-of-the-bride's shots ;)

thanks guys and gals
Just wondering, is there any ones that I ought to remove from the album? How much should I start charging?
I actually got just $150 ($300 split for 2 photographers) the other photographer I work with for weddings. He has his own camera, own PP, and etc... Also minus $40 bucks for renting a lens that started to F-up on me during the ceremony.
