I am a professional award winning wedding Photographer and I have been trying to find some happy medium with prices and the services that I offer, so that I don't work at a loss all the time.
I want to give a lot, but I also need to have a life as well, Each wedding is around 3 weeks work and I do mostly enjoy my work.
So My question is:
How much would you pay for your wedding photography and what would you expect to have for it?
To give you an idea, wedding photography consists of
Insurance, marketing and advertising, website updates and equipment.
A wedding typically consists of:
2-3 Meetings
several hours of emails and telephone calls
A day preparing my kit
The wedding day (12 hours)
4 Hours downloading and backing up the photos/video
A week of photo editing
Three days building a per view website and albums
Two days album and image editing (as client requires)
4-8 hours making a slide show
2 hours ordering
shipping packing and checking the albums when they arrive.
A typical package would be
a day shooting a wedding, all the digital negatives, a 70 page album with 70 pictures and a DVD slide show set to music.
Thanks in advance - this is a UK only question
My package is £880 it includes:
Preview book of 100-150 images. 10x14" contemporary 10 page album including 20-40 images of your choice in a modern 'magazine style' layout. CD of all images (of reproduction quality). Coverage from the brides home to the cutting of the cake.
i checked out a few cheaper and more expensive photographers but i chose this one as i loved her work and the prices were reasonable, i was quoted less £540 was the cheapest but i do beleive you get what you pay for.
i wouldnt have went any higher,
