Smart Ways to Save on Wedding Photos and Video
Hiring a professional Miami Arab Wedding Videographer and photographer doesn’t have to break the bank. However, in general, there is really no other way around it. Professional-grade wedding memories are expensive. If you’re fretting about how you’re going to pay for them, consider these tips for getting cheap (or at least, cheaper) professional wedding photography and videography and significantly saving money on your wedding.
Search for customizable packages
If you’re on a budget, a custom-made package allows you to pay for exactly what you need—whether that’s hours of coverage, extra sessions or access to digital photo files. For Saiaf Films, the build-your-own package helps any bridal couple use their budget in the most efficient way possible.
So how do you figure out what to prioritize without getting overwhelmed with the options? Talk about it with your Afghan Wedding Photographer Virginia. They can help walk you through the things like whether you can realistically fit all your must-have shots in the minimum amount of coverage they offer or how many assistants make the most sense for the size of your wedding.
Tie the knot and party at the same venue
By hosting your wedding ceremony and reception at the same venue, you will have more time for taking portraits and bridal party photos, as well as shoot the footage you want, since you’ll eliminate the need to travel to several locations. If you follow this advice, you’ll actually end up saving in a few other ways too, like transportation, rentals and venue charges.
Get a referral from the photographer
If you’ve crunched in many places and still can’t afford the Tampa Florida Arab Wedding Photographer you really want, don’t give up just yet. The photographer you’re aiming to have can still be able to help you in other ways, like giving you a referral to someone within your budget who has similar photography or videography style. Saiaf Films, as well as the other pros in the industry, are always happy to refer their co-professionals to couples if their budget calls for a more affordable service. They can give you a few names of other photographers and videographers they have tag teamed with before who may not be as established yet, and charge less because they’re not as well known.
But before you sign any contract, meet with the shooter in person first—you want to be sure you’re comfortable with him or her as they are expected to work closely with you on the most parts of your wedding day.
Professional photo and video services aren’t cheap. But the good news is that your wedding day is probably going to be the highest point of your professional-service buying career. Even if you decide to do a pregnancy photo shoot, do annual family portraits or get your child photographed on his or her graduation, you won’t be spending as much as you do on your wedding day photography and videography.
