I am having a wedding next summer. I am looking to hire a photographer in the northern NJ area for a minimum of six hours. My budget is about $1000. I thought it would be most economical if I pay the photographer to put hi resolution photos on a CD so that I can print them from and create the album myself. 1) Does anyone think this is a bad idea? 2) Can anyone recommend a photographer? _________________________________ bridal
