Trish S. says, "We hired DJ Bon B Entertainment for our son’s Graduation party and we couldn't have been happier! From the moment of booking, communication was excellent. DJ Bob helped plan the perfect playlist for the party, making the process stress-free. On the day of the party, DJ Bob seamlessly transitioned between songs and kept the dance floor full all night! He read the crowd expertly, playing a mix of requested songs and other crowd-pleasers that had guests dancing till the end of the party and he was also a fantastic MC, keeping the evening flowing smoothly and making announcements with energy and professionalism. We received so many compliments from our guests on how fun the party was, and we owe a lot of that to DJ Bob. We highly recommend DJ Bob for any event!"" Read more

Your photography questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much does a photographer cost?

The average cost to hire a photographer is $100 to $250 per hour, depending on their experience. However, photography prices vary significantly depending on the type of event or photo session:

Do you tip photographers?

The standard tipping etiquette for photographers depends on the type of photo session or event and how happy you are with the photographer's service:

  • Tip a wedding photographer $50 to $200 if the photographer exceeds your expectations. If the photographer works with a second shooter, be sure to tip the second photographer separately.
  • Consider tipping a family portrait photographer, pet photographer, or newborn photographer if you're happy with the photo session. However, tipping is not expected for family portraits taken at a big box store like JC Penney or Wal-Mart.
  • Tipping a photographer is not expected for headshots, commercial photography, real estate photography, or architectural photos.

If you're happy with the photographer's service, post a positive review online and share their photos on your social media.

How can I save money on a photographer?

Follow these tips to save money when you hire a photographer:

  • Book a "mini-session" – a shorter photo session that lasts only 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Choose your favorite photographers and follow them on social media. Some photographers may provide deals and exclusive offers.
  • Hire a less experienced photographer. However, be sure to review their portfolio to confirm they have enough skill to meet your photo needs.
  • Purchase prints from an online retailer instead of ordering them from the photographer.
  • Bundle multiple photo sessions for a discounted price. Some wedding photographers bundle engagement and wedding photos. Other photographers offer a bundle for newborn photos plus additional sessions as your child grows.

How far in advance should I book a photographer?

Book a wedding photographer as early as possible, ideally as soon as you've confirmed the date with your venue. Headshot, commercial, pet, and family portrait photographers typically don't require as much advanced notice. However, a popular, in-demand photographer may be booked out several months in advance.

How can I find the best photographer near me?

Follow these guidelines when searching for a photographer to ensure you find one who is the best match for you:

  • Look for photographers who specialize in the type of photography you want. A photographer who specializes in weddings won't be the best choice for a newborn baby photo shoot, and vice versa.
  • Review their online portfolios to confirm you like their photography style and aesthetic.
  • Read photographer reviews on Fash and Google.
  • Get a contract in writing before making a deposit.
  • Discuss the photo usage and printing rights to confirm how both you and the photographer can use the images. Photographers typically retain the copyright to the images, allowing them to use the photos for marketing and social media.

What questions should I ask a photographer?

Ask these questions to help you choose the best photographer for your needs:

  • How long have you been in business?
  • What type of photography do you specialize in?
  • What is your photography style?
  • Do you have an online portfolio I can view?
  • How far in advance should I book my photo shoot?
  • What deposit do you require, and is it refundable?
  • Do you have a photo studio? If not, where will you take the photos?
  • What should I do to prepare for the photo session?
  • How will you deliver the final photos to me?
  • How long will it take to get the photos?
  • Do you offer printed items or photo albums?
  • Who owns the rights to the photos?
  • Will you use my images on social media or your website portfolio?

Reviews for Joliet photographers

Recent success stories from people in the Joliet area.
L M.
We had a family of 14 and Joani did an awesome job taking shots of the whole family as well as the individual families and kids. She traveled to our location of choice and recommended the spots that would have the best backgrounds and lighting. Our proofs were uploaded and edited super fast. She was even able to erase an awkward looking sunburn for me, lol. I highly recommend choosing her!

What I really appreciated is how antonio paid attention to the little details, not just the big moments. The way he put everything together really tells the full story of our day. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and creative to film their wedding.

Jay, was so great to work with!! He was SO patient with my toddler who did not want to take pictures at all! He really captured our family well and the images are stunning- he truly has an eye for coloring, lighting, etc. Very responsive to emails, kind, and low pressure during our session- it was perfect!! Definitely will be continuing to use Jay to capture our family moments!!
