Wedding photographers make most of their profits by keeping your negatives and charging high prices for prints and expensive albums.

I'm different. I charge a flat fee to shoot your wedding--always under a thousand dollars if you are in the New York City area. Film and development is extra, typically two or three hundred dollars. I then give you the negatives as well as sources where you can get (at cost) blow-ups, reprints and albums. You put together your own album. This usually takes a couple of pleasurable afternoons, saves you money, and leaves me to do what I do best--shooting your wedding. I am always available for free follow-up advice if need be.

My customers end up with a gorgeous wedding album for between $1,000 and $1,500, half the price of many other photographers. Of course the ownership of your original wedding negatives--to be handed down through the generations--is priceless.
