Is that not... Incredibly overpaid considering the work involved? I know there's more to it than point the camera and click... But it's still only a day's work

Is the price so high because it's hard to get many gigs for these guys? Like maybe they only get 2-3 a month to work

Not at all, the amount of equipment that goes in, I've seen photographers charge $5k-$10k for weddings.

Yeah, kinda? I know weddings are expensive, my friend said they spent nearly 10 grand on flower arrangements at their one

I know there's post wedding work for the photographer, editing and picking the good pics from the bad, it still doesn't quite add up as being worth $2k work to me, what I make doing 2 weeks of work

When you factor in a days worth of shooting the wedding, then it takes a few more days to edit and get together a portfolio for a client, 2k makes sense. Not to mention your using upwards of $5k+ of equipment to shoot and edit the videos. It's a specialized job.
