Wedding photographer fees range from the $500 shoot and burn package to the $10,000 celebrity wedding package.
HOW do we determine these fees? And what are our costs to do business??
Many factors go into deciding what you charge yourwedding clients, including the cost of our equipment, the cost to print albums, the cost of professional memberships, the cost of advertising, even the cost of the DVDs.
All of those things being equal, why is there still such a discrepancy between that $500 shooter on Craig’s List and the photographers who command $6000, $8000 or $10,000??
It’s the creative fee of course. The American Society of Media Photographer’s addresses the Creative Fee.
