Wedding Photography Cost Calculator

Coverage hours — the single biggest factor. A 4-hour ceremony-only package costs significantly less than a full 10-hour day. Most couples choose 7–8 hours.

Guest count — more guests means more group portraits, more coordination time, and longer formals. This affects the post-processing workload too.

Location — travel to a second venue or a destination adds time and cost. This is always worth discussing to find the most efficient arrangement.

Albums and prints — a professionally printed album is a worthwhile addition. These are produced in limited quantities by specialist printers and are not comparable to high-street prints.

Second photographer — strongly recommended for guest lists above 100 or venues with multiple rooms. Two photographers capture angles and moments that one person cannot.
