On the other side of things: If I'm a graduate student in photojournalism (UT-Austin) with a few weddings under my belt, what's the best way to get into contact with people hiring photographers? I'm looking for the $1000 range market.

butt sax posted:The cost of our wedding is surreal. It is going to wipe out a year's worth of savings for us - and we are both living with our parents right now so we save pretty much all of our paycheques except for student loans. One easy corner to cut is the invites. Electronic invites are free, and people actually RSVP. Another is the food: a buffet saves a lot of money, as does more beer and less wine.

chachu posted:Is there any tactful way to tell people that, instead of presents, we would rather have a donation to our fund for a down payment on a house? For our poor friends in their 20's, we created a registry at Target, but is it considered... rude, I guess, to ask for a donation from our better-off friends and family who will just end up buying us a really expensive crock pot and some towels that we don't need? I know people have qualms about giving money as a gift. Is that, like, taboo? I mean, we'll know how much money they spent anyway if they buy something off of our registry. What would be the best way to word it? It seems weird to be like "Our wedding is [date], and we're registered at Target, so BUY US SOMETHIN' OR GIVE US MONEY." I've always heard the best solution is to put your gift registry somewhere you can return the presents for cash later. Someone said Bed Bath and Beyond, but that was years ago.
