Go to www.clubsnap.com

 

There are some good photographers there who has online portfolio....

 

But IMHO...$500 is kinda low for wedding photography....but try and see if anyone fits the bill there for you.

$500 is realy abit low for actual day photography as its normally a 12 hr job. $500 can get a junior photographer.. might not be good.

U cant get much with $500 i think. With this budget, u're likely to get someone who's really has little/minimal experience.

 

Think abt it, The person has to wake up 3-4am to start taking wedding preparation photos until late morning. Then go spend 4hrs in the evening to take photos.

Ur $500 includes the time subsequently to do at least some photoshopping for some of the photos.

Most of these pple r part-timers ie they take one day leave or burn their wkend doing this.

TS, (sorry, reply to the wrong person)

 

$800+ is the standard price for Bridal studio to charge for the

photographer. If im not wrong, it comes with 300 photo prints,

with all the photos in a CD.

 

Cheers, Melissa

 

Edited: Its always safer to get from the Bridal Studio itself,

cos if anything happens (eg: Photographer cannot make it last min,

absentee or MC), at least you can look for Bridal Studio.

Well-known Bridal Studio depends very much on mouth-mouth reputation,

by checking at one of the Brides forum you can know more.

5k a bit steep. 500 bucks? Haha..

 

maybe i'd do it.

 

the $850 quote sounds reasonable. i think usually is above 1k, even 2k plus. that will include a slideshow during the dinner from the morning festivities

$500 for a full day - i presume it's from 6.30am till 11.30pm = abt $29/hr. the normal rate is usually abt $50/hr. for famous photog, they may charge u by manythousand$. a few mth ago, straits times reported that 1 guy charged $8K and still he says that he is cheap when he compared himself to famous make-up artist who charge S$2K for a 2 hour job. a photog may work 8 hrs in an event, but when he reached home, he will continue with another few hrs or another 24 hr or more depending on what to deliver as promised.

ur whole day mus ask properly

 

my sis overall spend 4k+ if not wrong...hourly is $250 ..morning and dinner session plus the photos

 

i heard b4 10k one lor...other photographer ,forget the name

 

5k for whole day not really much for a good photographers la...in this line..a normal video man can earn 1-2k with equipment for 1 hour job like my ex boss when i help him do part time last time

My wedding photographer, Kelvin is highly recommended. His work is superb but I don't think he comes cheap. You may wanna contact him to find out more though.

My wife and I as well as all our family/friends simply love his style :D
