Your Wedding Photography questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much are wedding photographer prices near me?

Wedding photography costs $1,600 to $3,600 on average but often exceeds $4,000 in major cities. Wedding photography prices range from $700 to $10,000, depending on the package, add-ons, location, and number of photographers.

When to book your wedding photographer?

Book your wedding photographer as early as possible, ideally as soon as you choose a date and reserve a venue. The best photographers book events more than 12 months in advance, especially for weddings during the peak season.

What to expect from your wedding photographer?

Before the wedding day

  • Discussion of the photographic style and your needs and wants
  • Contract and initial payment to reserve the date
  • Reviewing the wedding day timeline to ensure you schedule enough time for key photos
  • Engagement photo shoot, if included
  • Rehearsal dinner coverage, if included

On your wedding day

  • Capturing key moments during the getting-ready process, ceremony, and reception
  • Traditional or posed photos of the wedding couple, bridal party, and family
  • Photos of candid moments throughout the event

After the wedding

  • Photo editing and retouching
  • Delivery of proofs, typically via a private online gallery
  • Assistance with photo selection and album design
  • Delivery of prints or an album, if included

How much should you tip a wedding photographer?

Tipping a wedding photographer is not required but is usually appreciated. Consider tipping $50 to $200 to express your gratitude if the photographer exceeds your expectations.

How much do wedding photographers make?

Wedding photographers make $40,000 to $60,000 per year on average, depending on their experience and location.

How do I find wedding photographers near me?

Start by searching our list of wedding photographers, then compare reviews and costs. After finding and contacting potential services:

  • Decide which photography style and aesthetic best suits your wedding.
  • Ask for referrals from friends, family, your wedding planner, the venue, and other wedding vendors.
  • Read their reviews on Fash and Google.
  • Choose a pro who specializes in wedding photography.
  • Interview your favorite photographers and discuss your ideas and vision.
  • Ask the photographer about their pre-wedding, wedding day, and post-wedding process.
  • Schedule an engagement photo shoot to allow you to work with the photographer before the wedding day.
  • Get a detailed contract in writing that breaks down everything included in your package, the payment plan, and the refund and cancellation policy.
  • Discuss the photo usage and printing rights to confirm how you and the photographer can use the images. Photographers typically retain the copyright to the images, giving them the right to use the photos for marketing and social media.
  • Beware of basing the decision solely on pricing. The photographer with the lowest price may lack experience or isn't as good as local competitors.

After asking questions and verifying their credentials, hire the photographer in your area.

Reviews for Summerville wedding photographers

Recent success stories from people in the Summerville area.
Chandler B.
We are so incredibly grateful to Artistic DJ's Entertainment Company SC for being such an unforgettable part of our wedding day! From start to finish, the team—especially James and Dave—went above and beyond to help make our celebration feel truly magical. James, our amazing DJ, took the time to have dinner with us before the big day to get to know us and talk through every detail and possibility. That personal connection made all the difference. His ability to read the room and keep the energy flowing was top-notch. He knew exactly when to slow things down or bring the party back to life. One of the most breathtaking moments of the evening was our first dance, made even more dreamy with the “Dancing on the Clouds” effect—thank you, James, for suggesting and perfectly executing this! It added a stunning, romantic touch that we’ll remember forever. He also interacted with guests in such a natural, fun way—seamlessly guiding the night along while making sure everyone felt included and entertained. He truly was one of the best parts of our once-in-a-lifetime evening. Dave, who ran our photobooth and 360 video experience, was equally wonderful! Our guests had so much fun, and we loved seeing everyone laugh, pose, and enjoy the interactive experiences. The memories captured were priceless. To anyone looking for a wedding DJ who is personable, professional, and truly invested in making your big day perfect—look no further than Artistic DJ’s. We are forever thankful! — Chandler & Shane Lindler
