[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rad 1627, folks. OP paid a fraction of a fraction for service. She did not pay thousands (or even a thousand). She paid 450 on 750 of service.

This is not a case where IP paid thousands, and has a right to be irritated. She paid a pittance on regular service and still isn’t happy. She also had the opportunity to negotiate for other things before the session, but didn’t. [/quote]

I paid for 2,000 in prints after the service. So what would have cost 2,750 I got for 2,450 which amounts to a discount of 8%. I do not think that is a pittance. That is not out of our price range clearly but that is a lot of money for our family and not remotely what I would call a pittance.

I should have asked for pricing and information before the session, that is true. I do think if you are a high end photographer who knows you are on the high end of cost that you should perhaps proactively disclose that to someone who knows nothing about you prior to the session but I will take that criticism.

You paid for PRINTS.

So I guess you’ve gone to Lowe’s, bought a fridge, and expected a stove as it’s still inter kitchen?

Any lack of understanding in the contract is up to you, even if it seems unreasonable. You wanted the deal, and got it, but it wasn’t up to your standard. [/quote]

What? I didn't want a deal on anything it was a charity auction. I wanted to bid on something to make a donation.

I don't understand your analogy at all. [/quote]

Then there is no analogy. You paid 450 at a charity auction for 750 worth of work. That was mini session plus one print.

You now want more (outside the agreement) , which was up to you to negotiate AHEAD OF TIME.

Is it really that hard? Did you think 450wpuld get you full service sessions, or anything? [/quote]

I'm not sure I can argue with someone that doesn't know what analogy means. Your lowes thing is called an analogy, when you use another scenario to make a point about the discussed scenario without using the words like or as.

I don't want anything, I'm getting a gut check on my irritation. I am not a fan of the photographer's pricing. I won't be using her again but I think I compensated her well for her time by ordering 2k worth of prints.

I did not think 450 would get me anything beyond an hour or so of her time taking my picture. I didn't even know the first print was included. I think as a business model she should have a way to semi affordably purchase digitals while still making it more attractive to also purchase prints which is what makes her money. [/quote]
