Seriously though, many more weddings are not having little ones. Good and bad - no small ones running into your gear, but no cute flower girl shots. This was a small wedding for NOLA, but most of the bride's family are in Bulgaria so travel is difficult. They had the first wedding over there a few months ago. $5000? $10000? I wish, but there's hope as long as Ted keeps saying to charge that much!
