Default Wedding photography anyone?

Just curious if we have any wedding photographers in here? The fiance is looking around (Gilroy - SF area) for a photographer for our wedding next year.

My question is, how much do you guys charge on the average and what does a "package" come with? Just looking around in advance.

Or f*ck it.. even if you're not a wedding photographer but know how to take good pix.. I'm down to book whoever.

Any suggestions on how to go about this crap? In my opinion.. wedding photos are homosexual but it's all for the soon to be wife so whatever

I love his work. His blog and pictures of his daughters are amazing. He was the first guy that popped into my head when I read this post.

I will be the frist to say, WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT SKIMP IN THIS AREA, because you get what you pay for. A photo is an ever lasting memory of night that will go by so fast, that you will want to have something(other than your better half) to remember the night. Also I will suggest that you get a videographer as well.

<--just married a little over a year ago.

WOW all good links and suggestions... just didn't know photographers charge so damn much for weddings

So the fiance is itching to book one soon... and I need to rephrase that we are in NORcal not SOcal.

Keep throwing in more suggestions... thanks!
