Welcome to the forum Carmen! Dmitri

It's a nice dress for TTD. I suggest you do pictures on the sand first and then go into the water. I suspect, it may get a bit heavy after that.

I have Equador on my list for early next year. I have a lot of friends from there and it's a beautiful place. Galapagos is another jewel. You can take a boat or fly there.

Hi Kim, Welcome to the forum. Great wedding location -Dmitri

Sorry to hear that. A friend of mine was also laid off from Chrysler earlier.

Well, childred and even pigs are all recovering from the flu. Nobody died from it yet in North America. So I suspect all who did die in Mexico were in really bad health conditions and had no access to medical facilities. PS. We had a farmer in Canada who infect a few thousand of his pigs...all of them recovered

I really really do want them to make a little bit of money from my wedding All said and done, I really am happy with my decision. In fact, even if I was told that this would be waived, I would stick with the change anyway. Thanks for shedding a little light on this! A few venues here in Toronto do the same thing. They have a rate of about $100 for wedding photography and $2,000+ for commercial photography. Unless that resort is made of gold, they shouldn't charge more than our high end venues. Good luck.

Hi Amanda, Welcome! Check out the Mexico forum for some suggestions Dmitri

Hi Liz, Welcome to the forum! Lots of information and advice in here. Dmitri

Welcome Jorge!! Those are very good resort choices. Dmitri

Hi Tanya, Welcome to the forum!! Dmitri

Are you sure you understood their policy correctly? They are saying,"commercial purposes". To me,as a photographer, it sounds like I have to pay $1,000 if I decide to use those images for commercial purposes. It's pretty common. This is why they even said that it is photographer's responsibility. Because it would definitely be mine!! Commercial usually means selling the work. If you are the only person who'll be seeing the images, I don't look at it as commercial work. I would not try to sell your images(and my contract prohibits that) to magazines,TV,making post cards,calendars with images of the resort,etc. $1,000 vendor fee is absolutely unheard of. See if you can double check on these points. Also, what happens if your friends decide to shoot a wedding for you, do they all have to pay that fee? Probably not...wink...wink...photographer=friend
