Wedding Photograpy 1. Why is it so difficult to compare prices among Wedding Photographers?

Answer: A hamburger joint and your favorite Steak House may be in the same business, but their menus are not even close. both may sell beef as their main product, but that's where the similarities end. The differences are glaringly obvious. Unfortunately, the differences in photography is not quite so obvious, so when you are shopping for a Wedding Photographer, you will find many who will offer a fast food hamburger, but only a few that will sell you that finer Steak House cut.

2. Limited or Unlimited Wedding Coverage

Answer: The time spent taking pictures on your wedding day varies as do the total number of images taken. Some photographers charge by the hour and offer a set limit on the number of photos or locations. Others, like Audray Photography, essentially devote their entire day (and evening ) to photographing your wedding event with No Limit on what they will photograph. Your special day should have no limits, we feel it should be covered from beginning to end.

3. Type Of Equipment Used

Answer: A very influential factor in the cost of Wedding Photography is the type of equipment the photographer uses. Simple techniques require only simple, low-cost equipment, but sophisticated photo techniques require elaborate equipment- and more of it. A photographer who uses a professional $3,000 camera will likely charge more than one who uses $300 consumer grade camera. A professional will also carry at least one back-up for each critical piece of equipment that he/she brings to a wedding.

4. So, how much does a Wedding Photographer cost?

Answer: Prices range from $850 to the skies the limit. It is not unheard of that a couple will spend $8,000, and even more! Photographs (and maybe video) will be your only permanent record of the day. You want good photographs, so be prepared to spend a minimum of $1,500. Reprints will run $15 to $45 each. Expect better photographers to charge the higher rates. In other words, it is reasonable for an inexperienced photographer to charge you as little as $10 for an 8x10 print. And, it is reasonable for an excellent photographer to charge you $40 for a print of the same size. Reason being, an experienced professional will be giving you a better product and more services. Most brides initially underestimate the cost of photography by as much as 50%- so you will probably spend at least twice as much as you budgeted, unless you have gotten some advice from a wedding coordinator, who is familiar with prices in your area.
