Rakesh S. says, "We had the best experience with Mike! He did our children birthday parties and outdoor baby photoshoots . He was on time, professional, and very interactive with children. I can't imagine anyone else doing a better job! He also made sure everyone's face was visible when taking the large family picture at the end of our parties. He remembered the little details we shared about what we prefer in our cultural wares and poses. He gave us all the raw and edited pictures through an online link and as well as in a high quality flash drive for the same price. I would definitely recommend him to anyone! My family also really liked him too, and thought we did a great job in choosing our photographer. " Read more

Your photography questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

He took the time to focus on the lighting and getting particular poses. Moreover, he was able to capture the feeling of the moment.

Probably one of the simplest experiences I've had. I thought the whole professional photoshoot would be a hassle. I had to get headshots for a magazine profile being done on me and I wanted to also update my social media profiles. Will was quick and the results were great.

It was a great pleasure working with Mr. Michael. He was very patient, friendly and dedicated to his work. He was hired for my daughter’s first birthday party. He was there before time to see the location. We had the best quality pictures from him. He completed the work on time as we spoke. Will hire him again. I would highly recommend him. My entire family loved his photography.

We had a frantic morning and nothing seemed to go right! David and his wife, Tamika, helped out with the wedding preparations in addition to their photography duties. The images are really excellent and the canvas adds a nice personalized touch to their package. They definitely went above and beyond and I would highly recommend them.

I recently needed a professional head shot for my website. Like many people, I do not like having my picture taken! Bill made the experience not only productive - my photographs are beautiful - but fun! Yes, I said "fun". I took Bill's advice and had my makeup done by his in-house makeup artist Jill Harth, and the results were magnificent. I was so comfortable with Bill and Jill by the time we began to shoot, I felt more like we were three friends enjoying an afternoon together. Really wonderful in every way and I would recommend Bill (and Jill (!) highly to anyone in need of an excellent photo of herself.
