I just happened to stumble across the following forum posting and thought it would be good reading for anyone involved in the business or anyone thinking about getting involved. It will give you some real insight into just what brides are expecting (and even though this particular read is over two years old, it's still relevant). One of the key take-aways is to always be aware of what people could be saying behind your back...

How Many Photos?

ETA: you also don't want to be the subject of one of these stories: Worst Wedding Photographers Ever?

Heh, what makes me laugh is that she thinks she is being hard done by for not getting all the crappy blinky/blurry shots. I got about 330 shots from my wedding photog (solo shooter, with us all day long) and all were excellent. No doubt he took a lot more crappy ones - I don't care to see them. I still feel the 330 rights free images we got were well worth the money we paid (about £1500).

People expecting to get at least 1000 pictures lol... crazy - even crazier is the person that got 2200 photos (albeit from 3 shooters).

Surely quality is so much better than quantity. From our 330 about 40 were used to make our official wedding album. Who the hell needs thousands of pictures?

Here's one of me with a flower, here's one of me with 2 flowers, here's one of me with no flowers, here's one of me with a glass, here's one of me with a glass and a flower... ad infinitum. I mean come on...

The line "I take about 200 photos everytime I go out with my girls for crying out loud!" is a humdinger!
