It's all about getting your images on a dvd/cd with reprint rights, I say this becuase ya, you could get a bunch of print credit but the photographer is charging you 25 bucks for an 8x10 and their cost is under 5 bucks, so even if it seems crazy expensive always opt for the disk, you can get the prints and books your self for 1/2 the price!
