Wedding photos?

wedding photos? is it possible to find a photographer that will put a wedding package together based on the amount of photos that you will actually need?
Wedding Photos...? I was wondering what the etiquette was on the wedding photos? Are the bride and groom supposed to give their bridal party pictures of the wedding or are they just supposed to give everyone a wallet size with the thank you card? I don't know what the proper etiquette is or if there is proper etiquette to giving pictures. I thought that if you were in a wedding you would automatically receive pictures from the couple for being in their wedding. I'm not talking about receiving a whole photo album but 3-4 pics. My son was in my uncle's wedding as the ring bearer in August 2006 and all we received was a wallet with the thank you card. Of course I took my own pics but how does the bridal party take pics if they are the ones standing up there?
How do I get more copies of wedding photos from proofs, when the photographer is dead and studio is closed? The wedding was 11 years ago, photos were taken with film, received proofs of all photos. I now want to order more than the original package I had bought but the photographer is deceased and his studio closed. No one, as far as I know, has bought his inventory or his studio. I would like to get more pictures printed from the proofs but it wouldn't work when I took the proofs to Walgreens to scan and print. The guy at the photo counter was no help and I don't know what to do now. Thanks for any input.
How can I take professional wedding photos? I've been asked to take photos at a friends wedding reception. I'm not a professional photographer, but I do enjoy photography and have a Canon 20D camera with the standard 18x55 Canon lens, and a 28x200mm Zoom lens. I don't have any additional flash equipment, just what I stated here. The reception will be at dusk/night time. I want to get mainly candids, but I'd like them to be as professional as possible. Any tips or suggestions to think about? ...if I needed to purchase additional equipment, this is possible, but I can't afford $2000 lenses. You get the idea. ..just so everyone knows, they're not expecting miracles, and neither am I. I could just use some camera settings to try so I can get some decent shots in the light I have to work with. I will probably get an additional flash at least.
How much should a photographer sell her rights to photos for of my wedding photos? We ordered a wedding package for 1350 which is a standard price in our area, but after the wedding we realized we didnt get the rights to our photos. We figured we did since almost every other place we looked did so, and didnt even think about it since we booked a photographer we sort of knew, and they were just opening their studio. How much do you think would be a reasoable amount to offer for the rights to our photos?
How many wedding photos should I give to the bride? I'm having a little trouble figuring out how many photos to hand over to the bride. It was my first wedding shoot, and a small event, for which I was paid $150 dollars. Anybody know an acceptable count of photos? I was a last minute replacement and so I didn't get to discuss with the bride as many details as I should have. We didn't agree on an amount and they are going on disc.
How long does it take to shoot photos after the wedding? How long do post wedding photos usually take?

What to do when mother in law wants boyfriend to be in my wedding photos? Our wedding date is may 22, but parents are pretty much paying for the entire wedding. My fiancee mom has a boyfriend she has been dating for a couple years, and she is expecting him to be in the wedding photos and I don't feel to comfortable with him being in the photos, but I don't know how to approach the situation, my fiancee would tell her but usually twist and turns it and he gives in. I just feel like I don't want this man who I don't care for to be in my wedding photos.
What should I put as a personal engraving on a picture frame containing wedding photos for my dad? My fiance wants to give our parents picture frames as gifts on our wedding day. We both have divorced parents, so 4 frames will be given. The frames contain room for two photos, one from the wedding day and one of me as a boy. The frame can be personally engraved, but all the ideas we come up with just sound kind of silly for a picture frame being given to the old man. Anyone have any ideas?
What did you do with all of your wedding photos? Did you put them in a typical wedding album or did you make a fancy scrapbook of the best photos?

Where is the best place for printing wedding photos? Our wedding photographer gave us our photos on a cd to print as we would like. So far, when I try online to set up printing, a couple of places won't let me print over a 4x6 size. Is there a certain place I should be using that would be better?

What should I do if I don't have my wedding photos after waiting a year? My wedding photographer was paid in full, and by the end of this month, we will be celebrating our 1 year anniversary and still no wedding photos.

But for the past month I have not heard from her at all, she won't answer my emails or my phone calls. Should I take legal action? We're young and can't afford lawyers or anything like that. We just want our photos!

I will be using a Canon EOS RebelX S to shoot some wedding photos and was wondering which ISO film would be best for medium lighting such as that in a church.

Would people enjoy having digital photos, many options a la carte style, and someone cam-cord their wedding through out the day?

My friend posted something similar, but i got a lot of spelling comments instead of cold hard ideas. I did get a few however and wish for more.

What is the legal position on wedding photos when the company has gone bust? My parents got married in 1974.

Legally, how long does the Copyright exist on photos and is there anything I can do since the company does not exist?
How much should I charge per picture for wedding photos? I'm going to be the photographer in a wedding coming up, and need ideas on how much to charge for each picture. I have not decided whether or not to use film or digital [will probably end up doing digital]. So I'm not really sure as to how much to charge people for the pictures. I know that if I end up doing digital, I will need to gain back the amount it will cost me to borrow/rent a nice digital camera, along with the cost of the prints, however at the moment, I have not looked into it. So I'm wondering what the price ranges should be. I'm thinking of offering 8X10's - wallet sizes and then going anywhere from maybe $15-$80 depending on sizes, and how much they're going to cost. Does that seem like a reasonable price range or should I make it more/less? I am not charging the bride and groom [the bride is my best friend] so it's not even a flat fee and you get x amount of pictures... Thanks in advance. I should have added this in before.. but, I want to add, I haven't done a wedding before, but I have been doing photography for about 5 years now, and have also done portraits for a year [I worked in a studio] so I do know a lot about it. Also, the wedding isn't for another year, but I am planning on getting ready now. As I might have said, I still have to discuss with the bride as to whether she wants film or digital. As far as a film camera goes, I'm set. For a digital, I need to get one. I've worked with a lot of cameras, so I don't think I'm in danger of accidentally erasing them [as I never erase any until I'm completely done. It comes in the habit of working in a studio.] I have an idea of where I am going to get them printed. It's a rather pricey place but they do a great job and do finishes in the style I know the bride likes. That's one of the main reasons I will charge, if people decide they want prints instead of CD's.

What would be an ideal website to post my wedding photos ? I have about one hundred fifty photos I would like to post with a link from my myspace page.

How would be best to store my wedding photos? ? I was married two years ago, and have recently purchased my proofs from the wedding photographer. Around 200 8x6 prints have been provided to me just in two cardboard boxes, and I can't help but feel that they will deteriorate quickly being stored in such a manner. I think that being stored in an album would be the best way forward, but is there anything I should avoid? I seem to remember reading somewhere that PVC sleeves are no good for photos. Finally, recommendations of any particulars brands of albums would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Fliss

Compiling a DVD of wedding photos, ideas for music needed? I am compiling a DVD of my photos from my son's wedding as a surprise for their anniversary. The wedding was a civil ceremony as neither he nor his wife are particularly religious. They got married to Aerosmith, 'I don't wanna miss a thing', and played Madness 'It must be love' on the way out. I want to put some music to it, but both of these are too short. Any ideas for a good piece of music about 7 minutes long?

Ideas needed for wedding photos, giving disposable cameras to children? We're getting married next week and we've put cheap disposable cameras into the childrens activity packs with a list of photos to get. So far we've got; a picture of the best dancer, the biggest hat, parents dancing, the highest heels, groom without a drink, bride dancing, bride/groom eating wedding cake etc. Anyone have any other suggestions for photos a child could take? We know we'll get more pictures of the floor and ceiling than of people, but the idea is more to give the children a 'mission' to keep them occupied. So the more challenging the better.

What about Hillside Park? Or Memorial Park - a place where you would want to have your wedding photos taken
Should we take wedding photos after the fact? My husband and I have been together for almost 5yrs now, married for 1yr 5mths. We had a very modest wedding at the Municipal Building, no photos were taken because our witness couldn't figure out how to work my camera. We've been told that we should have photos taken at a studio with rented tux and gown, in case we have to go in for an interview because they may want to see wedding photos. My question is, would they take those as serious evidence? Since they won't be pictures of the actual wedding but pictures taken after the fact.

Wedding Photos for Beginners? some friends of mine have asked me to do their wedding photos at the beginning of next year, but the thing is, although I took a photography course a few years back, im still only learning about photography. I want to advance in photography to help in my career choice and it would be great for my portfolio. I have told them that I’d like to do it, but im real nervous that I’ll screw them up or do something wrong, and wedding photos need to be perfect. The engaged couple and all my family believe that I can do it, and reassured me that I will be taking lots of photos and there is no chance that I can screw them all up. That case aside, it’s still really scary to be doing something which will be so important. is there anyone out there who is a photographer or knows a bit about photography that can give me some pointers and tips about doing these types of photos, and what type of things should I make note of when taking the shots. It would be great if you can help!
