What is the typical cost for the full set of digital prints and full copyright to wedding photos?

I think we might have gotten ripped off but I'm not sure - want to check what the typical costs are. This is for Los Angeles (if location matters). Thanks in advance for your help. We bought full copyright - they did sell it to us for a substantial cost. It's the cost I'm trying to compare if anyone knows what the typical cost is of full copyright to the images, please answer. Thank you.

  1. Most photographers will NOT sell full copyrights to the photos. A typical wedding photographer will charge between $1000 to $5000.
  2. In the Phoenix area, wedding coverage starts at $2,000 for 3-4 hours, NO prints. Photographers always reserve all rights their copyrighted work. The photos they sell you include a non-verbal license for you to display them in your home, but not make copies. For about $5,000 you get one photographer and one videographer ... NO prints, NO DVD ... all that is extra I have never hear of anyone selling copyrights to a wedding. If one of my clients wants full ownership on one of my images the price starts at $20,000 per image. That usually cools their jets and they are willing to pay for usage.
