What Factors Determine the Wedding Photography Prices?

Wedding photography can be expensive. There is no standard pricing structure, and a lot depends on the professional expertise of the photographer. Wedding photography prices depend on several factors. To make things easy for you, here they are.

Hours of Coverage

Time plays a vital role in determining the prices of wedding photography. The price of full-day coverage would be higher than half day coverage. However, don’t expect them to be rational. Some photographers offer “Full Day” and “Half Day” coverage options. You have the option of adding a 2-3 hours package to any of the packages mentioned above.

The high pricing structure applies to a photographer who is considered skilled workers like mechanics, carpenters who draw hourly wages. Most photographers are paid by the hours, and many studios will not reduce their wedding photography prices due to this factor.

Need for Additional Staff

Wedding photography needs unique cameras and equipment which are quite heavy. The photographer has additional staff, which may also include a different shooter. The staff plays a vital role in setting up lights and other accessories for better shots.

Many photography studios send a 2nd photographer to shoot the wedding from another angle. All this is part of their professionalism to deliver the best results to their clients. The studio also needs to consider the wages and expenses of additional staff that accompany the wedding photoshoot. If the venue is significant, a 2nd photographer becomes a necessity to capture important moments.

Bridal First-Look

The wedding photography package includes several additional services like bridal first-look photography. Additional services in the package affect the pricing. Bridal first look photography is a growing trend as it allows the couple to take the opportunity of a stress-free environment to take fun pictures.

Large Prints and Albums

The wedding photography package also includes the price of albums. If you ask for large prints, the prices are bound to increase. The reason for the high prices of wedding photography is that the photographer needs to recover various running costs. They need to pay for the equipment, pay wages to the staff, place orders for different print designs, and many more expenses.

Travel Costs

The photographer has to travel to the venue with his staff and equipment. Travel costs also affect pricing. Travel costs depend on the location variable. If the photographer is local and the venue is in the same town/city, the travel costs would be low, which will reduce the wedding photography prices.

If you hire a photographer from a different state, you have to consider the travel and lodging costs of the photographer. In the photography industry, the travel costs are generally passed to the clients by increasing the package price.

If you have questions about the package costs, you can ask the photographer to segregate service costs and travel costs. This will help you know what the charges precisely for.

The post clarifies most concerns related to wedding photography pricing and helps you understand what to expect at a certain price tier level.
