Thanks Feroze. Very helpful.
I rarely shot weddings on film, but I did turn over the negs a couple
of times. It was just too much hassle to try to manage orders. But
that was many years ago, and I shot very few of them.
I don't plan on doing many weddings. My main occupation is advertising
copywriting, but work is scarce in Detroit these days, so I hope to do
some weddings and virtual reality panos to fill in the gaps. However,
I'm looking to relocate and take on a new full-rime ad job, so my
wedding photography business may be short lived. But building the
sites is educating me a bit. In the meantime, I'm working on the
Dreamweaver tutorial and hope to advance my web skills. My advertising
website, at http://www.paulnstenquist.com, is sorely in need of
repairs and updates. But the person who created it is no longer
available to fix it. It was built with Dreamweaver, so I'm hoping that
after I get up to speed with that software I can download the site
components and fix it.

CSS=cascading style sheets, think of your web page as those Babushka
dolls, each layer wrapped around the next layer, css its a way to
separate content and markup, so if you wanted to change the colour
or appearance of the site you'd only change the style sheet and the
changes would happen through the site, you could makeover a 10 000
page website by editing one style sheet....

I seldom do weddings anymore, I can earn more money in less time
without any grief by design a brochure or a website....its a crappy
way to earn a living, probally only that much worse than baby pics
And I don't have to keep explaining that its not my lens that makes
her look fat anymore...
When you shot weddings on film did you normally give them the negs
as well?

My contracts state that all photos become the property of the bride
and groom, but I retain the right to use them in my portfolio and
for advertising. A lot of the local wedding photographers work that
way. It's less messy. You charge an initial package price, then turn
over responsibility to the couple. Sometimes they still come back
for additional prints, but it's the upfront charges that make it all
profitable.
