Does a higher priced photographer = a better photographer?
That’s usually what the higher priced photographers and studios will tell you. In reality, all wedding photographers have to consider all of their costs and add in a profit margin and that’s the price they charge you. I have less costs and my profit margin is less astronomical than most photographers, so I can charge a lot less. I have worked for a photography studio where our cheapest wedding package started at $1799 – I am using the same quality equipment and am offering the same professional quality products and service at half the price. If pricing was based on the service and quality a photographer can provide, then my prices would be closer to the $10000 range (and I’m modest too)!
