I received my wedding photos that I paid $2000 for and I my contract with the wedding photographer I was promised high quality professional paper. On the back of the pictures it says kodak professional paper and it has a typed line for a copyright. I don’t think the paper is high quality. I’ve had pictures taken at sears and they use the same paper, the backs of the pictures are the same and for sears I pay $10 a sheet, so I think my photographer is being cheap and giving me low quality product. Does anyone know the standards for picture paper quality in NY for wedding pictures when you were charged and promised high quality service and product for $2000? I could have recieved the same product from sears for $3000

I have used film cameras all my life and am fond of Leica 35mm photograph, also Nikon. I read the online digital camera reviews and want to make the jump to digital soon. Image quality is my highest priority. Don’t want to spend 4 or 5K but will consider a medium price range up to 2K or so. What do you recommend for pure image quality? Am expert in Photoshop and am able to interpret and improve images.

There may too many amateur photographers who are low balling and taking a lot of business away from seasoned pros. Clients are doing more work themselves because of the high quality consumer digital cameras on the market. Just good enough rather than best quality work is getting more prevalent.
Has your photography studio gotten more or less work in the last few years. Because consumer and prosumer digital cameras have gotten up to 10-12 MP, more people than ever are becoming photographers and doing more of the work themselves rather than hiring pros to do weddings, head shots, product/tabletop work.
If you have seen a trend here, let us know of your experience. When just good enough is good enough and the margin between pro photographer sand amateurs is a narrowing gap.
