Are you working freelance or fulltime ?. I usually charge ard 2.5k for the two days but with extra photogs depending on attendance of relatives and with a free non edited videography just the important scenes during akad nikah and arrival/departure. Chinese weddings for $250 p/h per photog.Usually i work with a team every photoog has his/her own composition and the final results are usually awesome/unique.
If professional videography is needed that's additional 1.5k with editing . Most cases i just rent them video cameras and let them use if they are on a budget.
Nazli is right abt when the clients would nego to $400-$500 for the two days. Always try not to ruin the market just to have a job.Why settle for less.If its going to be a job get paid for it and not scrap for it or else its not worth doing. .
Me thinks we need a malay wedding photographers association as so we can have a standard of a certain level in this situations.Once a member.. verified pro with cert after a certain standard of qualification set by the association and the proper fees to be paid for the job.
Not a member let them haggle and charge cheap and get bad shots/moments to be remembered for life to show the kids later in that once in a lifetime wedding day.
HI guys!
Perhaps u can join the Singapore Malay photography forum here
www.kliqueimages.com
there are about 500 of us there and a percentage of them do wedding professionally.
I charge based on per hour. Regardless I shoot or not, its the service, quality and professionalism that I give for the price that I set. and time is money. If I have to wait 2 hours for the make up to be ready, my opportunity costs of waiting will have to be compensated. So for D100s comments, those were the days... which no longer apply these days.
Of cos, we have to deliver the 300 4R prints or what ever your package is. But that does not mean I restrict to only 300 shuttercount.
I charge $100 per hour for weddings and I still have clients bookings all the way till 2010, so there are many clients out there that believe in value for money.
For Num3ga suggestions, I think there are some interests to start an association but if u want certification, might as well go create a WSQ (under WDA) for some kind of standisation, IT will be a long painful pregnancy as u have to buy-in the industry big boys first.
What has that got to do with this topic? :dunno:These guys in my opinion are probably one of the best malay wedding photographers in SG
