YIkes. They really know how to get your $$$ for the pics. Is there anyone that is going with you that can take some nice photos as well? That is always an option so you can get one of there packages and then have nice pics from one of the guests.
I think after reading that email, I would be more likely to get the CD with the 40 pics for $350 and leave it at that. Then you can print them off in whatever size you want and make your own book through one of the online photo labs or get it done at a photolab in your area. That something you will have to decide. Is is important for you to have the disc with pics? Or is it more improtant to get some actual prints from them?

i just got back from my wedding yesterday from Paradisus Punta Cana. I used the resort photographer and the photos are much better than I ever imagined! I ordered the basic package which was 550.00 for 40 printed photos - they took photos in my room for 30 minutes before and all the way through till the end and stayed for as long as I asked them to -. when I went to meet with him two days later they presented a CD/video that was amazing!! Had music to it that brought tears to my eyes. That was an extra 350.00. I also purchased the extra (9  photos for another 200.00. They didnt tax it since I paid the extra with cash and my total all together was 1000.00 and I am very satisfied. I can copy the video cd from home and plan on sending my guests a copy of each with thank you cards. Totally beautiful.
I think the extra full video would be like 400.00 which would keep you in the price range you are looking for ( I personally brought my own video camera and had one of my guests have the job of filming the ceremony - I am sure the quality you will be satisfied with. The photographer webpage is WWW. CCLOVEDAY.cc - I am going to post some on here as soon as I can figure out how to!! Click on the July 4th date and you will see Robin and Dominick DiPrimo and there is a small video on photos - those are the photos we choose for the 8x10's and the full group for the big panaromic photo which comes with the package as well.
