I'm a few dollars short in being able to afford Gary Fong as my Wedding Photographer ... He just raised his prices ...

See this link here. Maybe if I got all my friends to chip in... :rofl

There's always the photo booth at the local mall ...

Will someone REALLY pay this price????

    Sure, someone will pay. There's a psychology to selling stuff. Not everything that costs a lot is amply superior in quality. People buy expensive stuff precisely because they realize it's exclusive simply by virtue of its price. And that appeals to them.

    Tell you what, though. There's a lot of pressure on you to come up with the goods when you're charging 120-grand for the job.

    there's an old saw: if you're going to get in the restaurant biz, charge the highest prices in town, you'll be mobbed forever and a day (look up the french laundry in napa valley)...

    and hey, he uses a lensbaby, so his costs are waaaaaaaaaay down. talk about maximizing profits! lol3.gif
