The wedding package includes:
The proofs and a CD: do with these as you wish, meaning you are in charge of enlargements, reprints, etc. If you wish for me to take care of reprints and enlargements, it will cost you $75.00 extra for my time. Also, if either of you wish for me to give a release form of sorts stating that the “rights” to the negatives go to the bride and groom in case you run into problems with Wal-Mart or whomever, just ask.
These “frozen moments” are put together in as many albums I may need to put the story together. If you already have an album (preferably albums - it usually takes two), please let me know. One album is usually used for the rehearsal, the ceremony, and the reception. The other is used to put the portraits in. If you don’t feel comfortable giving me your albums to put the story together, I will put the story together in sleeves, without any albums, and then you both can decide if you want to keep the story as I saw it, or you might decide to change it from the way that you receive it.
“How many pictures do I get”, you may ask? That all depends on everyone involved in the wedding and the wedding itself. How many family members? Is there a reception and what “events” are you wanting to take? What kind of wedding is it; Pagan, Christian, Jewish, etc.? What kind of pictures do the bride and groom want? All weddings are different! However, on average, I usually 400 - 700 pictures
Depending on how busy the photo lab that I use may be, on average, photographs are normally returned within two weeks, or less, from the wedding day. Depending on the circumstances, or agreement, photographs must be picked up in Murphysboro, IL when photographs are ready. If you want them personally delivered to your home, it will cost $50.00-$100.00, depending on the location.
If you wish your photographs to be mailed, the shipping, the insurance, and the handling must be paid, at cost, before they are mailed. A contract must also be signed stating that I, Michael Coles, will not be held liable if the photographs are lost or damaged when mailed using the US Postal Service.
