I am actually getting more than that for $1600 but keep in mind, prices vary per province/state/country. Do some on line comparisons of other photographers works and do make sure you get the copyright to duplicate pics as you wish after. That is becoming fairly standard now but double check!. Even where I live, it is still fairly reasonable. Interview the photographer, ask to see a portfolio (not just what they put on a website) and ask for references. If he/she is gruff or grumpy in the interview (as one of ours was) he/she may not work well with your wedding party, especially if it involves children. This one person is thee one responsible for creating something you can look back on years from now so you need to be comfortable with them. Good luck and best wishes!
