Went with a gut just starting his business. Only paid $800 and the pics were awesome.
Everybodys got to start somewhere.
Hell, theres another thread about Randy Johnson starting a photography business after he retired.

Backyard country wedding at family place. Invitations from mail order. Stamps. Sams for liquor. Frat guys for bartenders. Disposable cameras for guest to take pics and a relative during the ceremony. Preacher, tables & chairs borrowed from the church. Food from the BBQ joint. Flowers from local florist. Aunt to make the cakes. Jazz quartet. DJ friend to fill in.
Bout $5k. Good to go!
This reminds me of the scene from Father of the Bride when George imagines white and red checkered table cloth and paper plates while he's grilling.

I recently looked in NOLA and Baton Rouge.
Engagement pictures can run you from $400 - $800.
Day-of wedding photography ranges from $3,500 for "beginner" photographers to $6,000 for "expert" photographers. It's usually about 7 hours.

True. All of the photographers I looked at used 2 photographers for the wedding.

I know a good professional camera body runs $6000+ by itself
More like $3,400 but still freaking expensive.

Look into the guy I used. We got engagement, bridals, 7 hours day of (ended up being about 9), a book for us, a book for each set of parents (everyone gets to pick which pics go in their book), a proof book, CD proofs, and some other stuff I'm forgetting.
Him and his wife are great and really entertain the guests. We booked him because he did a friend's wedding 3 years ago and we enjoyed him that much. Told him that night if we ever got married we'd use him
