To “Joe” :cough:, who submitted a nasty, accusatory comment (with your IP address attached), I refuse to post your comment because I don’t want your rude vibe on my blog. But I will answer you.

No, it’s not an untrue assumption that this groupon (and many others the rest of us have seen around the country) are for on-location sessions. It was. It was stated that way in the terms of the deal.

You’re right that cheap CDs at Office Depot don’t cost $3.50 apiece. But archival disks that are fit for professional portraits do. Plus I use DVDs because my files are much larger than consumers get from their point n shoot cameras. However, the cost of the disk is completely immaterial to this discussion, because even if a photographer uses a 10 cent CD, that only puts $3.40 back into the photographer’s pocket for each session…spread out over the hours of work involved shooting and editing each one, it still amounts to only pennies per hour.
