I'm getting married this weekend and were meeting the the photographer this evening. My question to you all is it normal for a photographer to ask for is moneys up front. If so then I'm in the wrong business. I wouldn't mine paying half down and the final on delivery of pictures. I've heard a lot of horror story's about wedding photographers. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks Erik,

I agree with everyone else here. Half down and balance due when services are rendered. I would never pay the full amount up front. Congrats on the wedding by the way.

if I were the photographer, I would think it to be fair to ask for half up front and the rest on delivery.

Erik,

He's in Tampa Augie photographing. So I guess payment is due at the venue. We left a 300 dollar deposit already, we really scaled back our origanal package from a cost of 1600 to 800. We can upgrade the package after the wedding too. I figure if i like the pictures enough I'll get the better package after. No reason in giving them to much. And no wedding crashers!!  |
