Photographer Cost

What is the average cost for all day wedding photography?

Answer by Diane:

The cost of a photographer depends on a few different things. Geography is one of those things.

If you live in a more expensive area (bigger cities usually), then usually the cost is more expensive for an all day photographer.

It also depends on the experience of the photographer and the equipment he/she may have. If you find a photographer who is just starting out in the business, then he/she will be less expensive then someone who has been in business for years and has much experience.

Most photographers have their rates posted on their websites depending on which package you choose.

Package prices usually depend on the amount of time the photographer physically spends at your wedding, but also the amount of prints and special albums you wish to have afterward.
