Budget Wedding Tips - Parts 2 & 3: Photography and Videography



Wedding Photography and Videography

Wedding photography &/or videography packages that I saw at Wedding expos ranged from around $1000 up to almost $10,000.
I guess it depends on what you're after as to the amount of the budget you allocate to photography/videography.  We wanted a basic video of the ceremony, nothing too fancy, and some pics to remember our special day.

We got a couple of friends to do both the photos and videos.
Our photographer was a friend who is a professional photographer who usually takes photos of kids, but had done a few weddings and was happy to do it for us for $500 including CDs and some prints and photoshopping.

Our videographer was also a friend who has plenty of experience in videography, who was happy to do the job and an edited video of the ceremony for a few hundred dollars.
This saved us a bundle and means we have memories in picture and movie form to reflect on in the years to come :)
