Ask for wedding photos from late 1990s wedding

I've managed to track down the photographer from my wedding over 19 years ago. He's still in the wedding business & thinks he still has the negatives.

I got an album with about 15 photos & some 7x5 prints that I've got framed. Which I think was about the norm for the time & the technology.

As some very close family members have recently died I was interested in having some more prints or doing a small album. Anyway photographer says it will be a lot of work for him to go through the negatives especially as I'm not exactly sure which photos I'm after. I asked if I could buy the negatives & he was horrified & not terribly helpful.

Has anyone else bought, or had old wedding negatives converted? Am I right in thinking that most couples now get their images digitally? WIBU asking? I was so pleased to track the photographer down, but doesn't look like anything will come of it.
Any advice please

Thanks everyone for your advice.
