How to save money on wedding photography

Wedding photography is one of the essential services you need on your wedding day; however, it comes at a cost. Photography prices can skyrocket up to R50 000. However, there is a way around that; we have combined Six ways to help you save on wedding photography.

Wedding Photography Budget

• Start by looking at your budget, and then determine the style and the type of wedding photographer you want. In most cases, wedding photographers who have been in the business for a long time own their equipment; they can be lenient when it comes to pricing instead of new photographers or photographers who rent their equipment.

• Book early.

Most professional photographers offer discounts for early bird booking. Besides, if you book your wedding for at least a year in advance, you are more likely to pay the current prices rather than the increased rates for the following year.

• Go digital.

If you are on a tight budget, Don't rush to pay for prints or albums before the wedding. Instead, opt for a wedding photography package that only offers digital images, and then later after the wedding, you can decide to print your pictures based on your affordability.

• Referral Discounts.

Most photographers have referral discounts such as word of mouth, online etc. If you didn't ask, you wouldn't know. You can always negotiate with your photographer before or after the booking.

• Hire a photographer for a minimum time

Most professional wedding photographers charge hourly; therefore, it will be in your best interest to book the hours of photography around the most important events of your wedding day. Alternatively, Companies that offer a combination of wedding video and photography tend to charge lesser for all-inclusive full-day packages. Consider that option.

• Hire a local photographer

Hiring a local photographer near you or a company that doesn't charge transport will cut your photography expenses by up to 20%
