How much should I pay for a wedding photographer?
-
My wedding is in July. I'm really not sure what a "standard" fee is for photographers. We want a professional, but I don't think we need the most expensive photographer we can find. We don't want video footage, just photographs, and we wanted to get some prints + the digital coppies of the photos. We would need them for probably around 2-3 hours.

Answer:
Where I'm from, professional photography can be as little as $2000 and all the way to $5000. We paid $3600 for our photographer, which is some above average. We were completely satisfied. Good luck

It depends on your photographer and what their starting price is at. Every photographer especially if they are freelance have their personal quotes on what their price starts at. You should be careful though and need to pay attention to the quote they give you and the quality of work. If you don't think they are worth how much they are quoting you for then I say trust your gut. It's best to get a few quotes and also make sure you KNOW for sure what you are going to pay for.

Most photographers will list a starting price on their website. Look for local photographers online, see what you find. Pricing really does vary by region, but, generally, starting prices will be $1000-$3000+. Most starting packages also usually include 6-8 hours of shooting, so you may be able to negotiate a lower rate for less shooting time.

Most are around $1000. It depends on how many hours you want them for. Getting ready at the salon, putting dress on, ceremony, reception etc. You can try looking for photographers just starting out. We were so lucky and found someone who has done a lot of modelling photography and are looking to get into the wedding business. We're getting the entire day plus engagements photos for $800. I'm so happy with him, his portfolio was amazing. He said once he gets the experience in two years or so he's going to be charging $2000-3000.

I paid $2500. This covered full day of pictures, brag books (4 mini copies of your album), album, large portrait, 2 smaller portraits, prints, as well as full picture thank you cards. I found that if you pay cash, vendors give you quite a bit of a discount.
