I just received a quote from a photographer here in New York city and I'm wondering if any one could tell me if this sounds like a good deal.

QUOTE:

My basic package starts at $1800.00- this includes 5 hours of photography, 5 free rolls of 35mm film, a photo assistant and negatives free of charge.

I personally photograph all the weddings I book.

I develop and print all the negatives. All my packages include a set of 4” x6“ size prints.

In an average 7 hours wedding day I will start with the bride getting
ready, the ceremony, family shots, cocktail hour, dinner, dances and cake cutting.

I use Nikon 35mm cameras and Mamiya medium format cameras. The film I use is Fuji color film and Kodak b/w film.

I always work with an assistant.

I do offer beautiful leather bound albums with prices starting at $500.

I don't know what stuff goes for in NY - but I'm sure it is a lot more than in the suburbs of Chicago. For my November wedding, I was able to get: leather album (21 pages), 7 hours, unlimited film, and lots of the other "typical" photography things all for $1100.

That is comparable to LA. If you have an assistant they usually charge more. If your wedding is bigger you may need that. Are you going to make your own album or shell out the extra money?
