We were thinking of having a friend with a nice camera to do our engagement photoshoot. Not a friend who photographs for a living, but a friend who happens to enjoy shooting as a hobby and is good enough.
We'd pay him/her of course, but we're really just looking to have some digital files of the photos, we actually don't have a lot of pictures together even though we've been together for 10 years... we're more of "make memories" than "take pictures" type of people!
So how would you ask them?!
I was just going to ask on Facebook, like "hey any photog friends want to do us a favor?" type of deal, but how should I word it?
And if you're wondering why we aren't going with our actual photographer, we decided to swap out the engagement session for a second parent album, which is something we were going to get anyway ($$&dollar, plus to actually purchase any photos from the session, we'd have to pay $50 PER PHOTO (for a digital file), so just trying to save money here
