We did not pay add'l money to the photographer, just for the day pass. We did not have a package that included the photographer, only the complimentary package. Hope that helps.

Just to be clear (which I know I wasn't). I was referring to the payment of a pass, not the payment of the photographer's services. ;-) Sorry about that... Khrystal Davis

Okay...we just eloped at ERC. Anyway, you do have to pay to use someone else. In our case, we paid $70 for our photographer, Octavio Montes. I strongly recommend him. You can go to his site, and use my user name, khrystal to view our pictures that he took on 2/26 at ERC. Note that I didn't have him do any touch ups, as I like to edit photos myself with GIMP. Anyway, he is extremely pleasant, social, artistic and an all around fantastic photographer. I STRONGLY recommend him over the resort photographer whose work I found marginal, and I found him disinterested if not rude. I wish you all the best, and I'll try to post more here shortly. Feel free to contact me with any questions about ERC, as we were just there. We found it beautiful and relazing, and the wedding was probably the best. However, we eloped, so we didn't have many of the things that those of you with guests will have. Best wedding wishes, Khrystal
