Wedding Photographers Are Overpriced… Truth, or Old Wives’ Tale?
Summary
The photographer arrives at the wedding, enjoys a feast and good wine, occasionally presses the trigger between bites, and then charges an eye-rolling sum. It’s easy to fall prey to the idea that a photographer just spends their limited time on the wedding day and pockets an immensely high amount for these few hours. Behind every capable photographer, you’ll find hundreds of hours of self-study and countless consultations and successful or not-so-successful projects, as well as enormous costs invested into equipment and education. Retouching away a few pimples and minor defects is no problem, but bending reality significantly is going too far, even if many guests would prefer it. After this, hours of sifting through an enormous amount of material, sorting and selecting, await them before they can even start their creative work.
