So my fiance and I recently decided on a wedding photographer for our wedding next June. Amazing how hard it was to find available photographers. We began our search shortly after reserving the site, which was over two months ago, and at first we were surprised by the prices some wanted. Their work looks really awesome, but we weren't sure if we were prepared to cough up $5k for the photographs!
Fastforward to the present day, and sure enough, we are paying $5k and then some (read that as $5,500). Turns out we are quite picky on the style we like in a wedding photographer, and there happens to be a name to describe what we want: photojournalistic wedding photography. Basically it is a style of photography meant to capture the action and true essence of the moment. Anyway, that word automatically means lots of money, so oh well. Allyson Magda is our photographer, and her work looks really good, pretty much like artwork. We plan to put the art in frames on some of our walls it looks that good.
So to sum this post up, how and when did photographs become so expensive? Such is life, and such is wedding expenses. That's my take.
