Wedding Photography Prices – What does wedding photography cost?  What are my prices?

You will find a huge range of prices from wedding photographers. And I charge a range of prices myself, depending on what is involved. The short answer is “from £800 to £2600”, but this depends on…

How long do you want me to cover?

  • Shooting a wedding can be a very long day, or quite a short one. To cover the ceremony in the church/register office plus a few portraits of you as a couple and some family groups in the garden afterwards is hardly more than an hour. Even so, it may be a intense hour of shoot, leading to a day’s worth of selecting and editing.
  • At the other extreme, starting with a bride and her bridesmaids from breakfast and the arrival of the hairdresser at 8 or 9 in the morning and working through to a dance at the same time or later in the evening – that’s a long day, and the edit will be even longer.
  • A very short shoot can be priced economically, but travelling costs will weigh proportionately heavier in the mix – see on distance below.
  • The thing to do is – ask for a quote for your specific requirements, by phone, email, or using my contact page.

Do you want a second photographer?

One photographer is economical; two photographers give you more angles and a broader vision. Have two if…

  • It is very important to you to have photos of two simultaneous events (perhaps the groom and his guys having a pub breakfast while the bride and her maids are doing make up?)
  • You would like two angles to be well covered in the church without too much moving about
  • You want to maximise on captured moments as two people move among your guests
  • You love the richness that comes from two different “eyes”

The cost of a second photographer varies depending on who is available. Once again, ask me by phone or email for a quote for your wedding.

Do you want an album made for you?

  • The majority of my clients make their own albums (or perhaps they don’t and just use the shots on screen or on the mantlepiece – I really don’t know!) but a proportion want the images collated and an album to be created.
  • Making an album takes about the same time again as the initial edit, in my experience. Expect to pay £500 extra, or more for a really thick book.
  • You have a say in what goes in – and the final project size. Call or email me to discuss the requirements for your wedding.

What travel or accomodation costs may be involved?
  • I am London-based, and most of my weddings have been in London, Surrey or Sussex, with many more in Kent, Bedfordshire, Hampshire, Essex and Herts. But I do travel widely – check out the “where I work” page.
  • Clearly, the further away a wedding is, the higher the travel cost, and, especially if it’s a long day, the greater the chance of needing to stop over.
  • Once again, tell me what you have in mind by email or using the contact form and I will quote my wedding photography prices including travel for your day.
