Pricing
I charge a flat fee of $100.   It pays for my gas, my time away from home, and my
time at the computer editing the pictures, the cost of the disk, and the shipping charge
for sending it to you.    

With the $100, you have my services at the shoot for any pictures you want taken.  I
have room on my camera for 180 images!   Within a few days after the shoot, I will
mail a disk to you that contains every good, frameable image from your shoot, in both
black/white (if applies to the shot) and color.   

This disk is not copyrighted.  You can take it to whichever lab you choose.  It is
your's to keep forever, make duplicates of for family, or whatever you choose to do
with it.  If you want extra disks, they are available for $5 a piece.   I'm happy to make
extras for parents, in-law's, etc, which is handy if they want their own prints from the
shoot.

As for printing, Baldwin Photolab or Alamo Photolab are recommended, and
affordable.    I prefer these labs for my black/white processing.   For color, however,
I've done printing comparisons, and have found I actually like HEB, Snapfish.com,
and Wolf for color processing, but not for black/white.   I hope this is helpful to you.  
Weddings
I have done many weddings, but prefer to be the background, black and white
photographer.   Otherwise known as a 'Backup photographer".   I like to capture the
behind the scenes moments, facial expressions of the people involved, stolen moments
with the bride and groom, and other 'happenings' that go on before, during and after the
wedding that go so easily unnoticed, but shouldn't.   I take UNposed shots of the bride
and groom eating their cake, toasts, and other natural moments during the reception.  I
also take group shots of the guests at the reception, so the bride knows who was there.  
  I don't, however, like the responsibility or pressure of taking the posed family
portraits.   I will leave those up to the Primary photographer.   If my service is appealing
to you, I charge $100 per hour, which is the same as my regular sitting fee (most regular
shoots take an hour).   With that money, I'll be there from the time everyone's getting
dressed for the wedding, until the bride and groom leave the reception.   I will take
hundreds of pictures, and give you a disk with every useable image, in color and black
and white (depending on the image).   You keep the disk, have the images printed at
whichever lab you prefer, and keep it forever.  You can even make copies of the disk
for other family members or guests.  If you want me to provide extra disks, it will be $5
per disk.
