K.T.
One of my best friends is a photographer www.earthmamaphotography.com
she charges $125 for regular sessions like family, newborn or senior pics that lasts anywhere from 1-3 hours and $500 for birth photography and weddigns are priced based on event I beleive.
You get a disk with all the pics and then you buy what pictures youwant from wherever you want them printed to get the best deal. She recommends www.mpics.com
good luck!
