Lots of people end up spending lots of money on a photographer. I thought I would share my idea with you all.

My photographer is a friend of my sister's. She is the photographer for our local newspaper and has done several Weddings before. I have seen her work and it is great. She is taking all our Wedding photos with her digital camera and putting them all on CD and only charging us $250. After the Wedding she will give us the CD and we will be taking them to get printed ourselves. Since there is no printing fee for her it will be much cheaper than if we hired a Wedding photographer that charges $1000 or more. That way we can pick through the photos and only print the ones that we really want to have in our album.

Other ideas for photographers: Contact local colleges for students who are taking photography classes. Most are wanting opportunities to show their creativity and will generally be cheaper than any Wedding photographer.
