A little research will show you there&#8217;s a vast range of prices, from the \u00a3250 &#8220;shoot and burn&#8221; type to the \u00a32000+ mega wedding packages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-641\" title=\"_MG_0136\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding Photography Leeds, Yorkshire\" width=\"515\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136-75x50.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136-650x434.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0136-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 515px) 100vw, 515px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Different Styles of Wedding Photography<\/h3>\n<p>You&#8217;ll also find there are various styles of photography. Here&#8217;s a quick rundown:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Reportage<\/strong>: Usually black and white, candid photos where people don&#8217;t know they&#8217;re being photographed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Traditional<\/strong>: Beautifully posed shots with everyone perfectly positioned.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Natural Light<\/strong>: Photographers who refuse to use flash.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Studio<\/strong>: Photographers who set up lights indoors and get people to be lit as though they&#8217;re in a studio.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strobist<\/strong>: Photographers who use flash outside, often with multiple flashes and umbrellas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/poll-signing.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-642\" title=\"poll signing\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/poll-signing.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding Photography Leeds, Yorkshire\" width=\"495\" height=\"736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/poll-signing.jpg 495w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/poll-signing-202x300.jpg 202w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/poll-signing-34x50.jpg 34w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/poll-signing-50x74.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 495px) 100vw, 495px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>The Mix and Match Approach<\/h3>\n<p>Often, these styles are mixed and matched. You usually get a bit of &#8220;traditional&#8221; for the group photographs, &#8220;reportage&#8221; while the photographer&#8217;s waiting for stuff, natural light outside, and maybe a bit of flash indoors.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Do Wedding Photographers Charge What They Do?<\/h3>\n<p>I often get asked what it costs for McFade to shoot a wedding. For a day&#8217;s work, it might seem lucrative. However, once you break down the costs, especially the time involved, it starts to make sense why we charge what we do.<\/p>\n<p>To illustrate this, I came up with a spreadsheet to estimate how long things take. It&#8217;s surprising how many activities are involved from the photographer&#8217;s point of view. You&#8217;re not just hiring someone to take photos; you&#8217;re getting a project manager, an MC, a planner, a shepherd&#8230; lots of roles!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-640\" title=\"_MG_0728\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding Photography Leeds, Yorkshire\" width=\"515\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728-75x50.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728-650x434.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_0728-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 515px) 100vw, 515px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Key Activities Involved in Wedding Photography<\/h3>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a list of main activities a photographer might help with:<\/p>\n<h4>Preparation<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Phone consultation<\/li>\n<li>Venue visit<\/li>\n<li>Travel to\/from venue<\/li>\n<li>Travel time<\/li>\n<li>Engagement shoot<\/li>\n<li>Editing engagement shoot shots<\/li>\n<li>Wedding plan creation<\/li>\n<li>Creation of photo list<\/li>\n<li>Phone calls, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Pre-Wedding Shoots<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Total hours shot<\/li>\n<li>Rating of shots<\/li>\n<li>Pre-edit of the shots<\/li>\n<li>Retouching best shots<\/li>\n<li>Adding shots to the album<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>The Wedding Day<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Total time to shoot<\/li>\n<li>Total travel for the day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Editing Shots<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Screening of shots<\/li>\n<li>Pre-edit of the shots<\/li>\n<li>Retouching best shots<\/li>\n<li>Adding shots to the book<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Showing of the Book<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Travel to\/from<\/li>\n<li>Time showing<\/li>\n<li>Time editing at the showing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Extra Prints<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Sizing photos for prints<\/li>\n<li>Sending files to printer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Extra Book Edits<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Number of edits<\/li>\n<li>Edit time\/edit<\/li>\n<li>Uploading to the website<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048-300x200.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-639\" title=\"_MG_1048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding Photography Leeds, Yorkshire\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048-75x50.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048-650x434.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048-50x33.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_1048.jpg 736w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>The Real Work: Editing<\/h3>\n<p>To coin a clich\u00e9, the 8 hours at the wedding are just the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/unlocking-the-magic-of-the-85mm-prime-lens-in-street-photography\/\" title=\"Unlocking the Magic of the 85mm Prime Lens in Street Photography\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"186\">tip<\/a> of the iceberg. You&#8217;ll typically spend more than 8 hours in the preparation phase. Even on the day, if you&#8217;re getting 8 hours of shooting in your package, the photographer&#8217;s probably got a good hour or more travel time to add on.<\/p>\n<p>The real work is in the editing. Screening the shots to choose the best can take a couple of hours if you&#8217;ve done a long shoot. Pre-editing (converting from RAW files to JPEG) and retouching (making everyone look their best) can take a few days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-638\" title=\"_MG_4755\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding Photography Leeds, Yorkshire\" width=\"515\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755-75x50.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755-650x434.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.mcfade.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/MG_4755-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 515px) 100vw, 515px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Creating Your Album<\/h3>\n<p>Once the photos are ready, you need to create your album, either digitally or by printing photographs and sticking them in a traditional album. If you&#8217;re creating a book, you&#8217;ll probably give the couple a chance to look over it and make changes. This can easily add another day to the process.<\/p>\n<h3>Final Tasks<\/h3>\n<p>There may be other tasks like uploading all the photos to a site where people can purchase them or converting every colour shot to black and white. These are usually things you can set going and leave the computer to do.<\/p>\n<h3>Time Investment<\/h3>\n<p>The effort involved in editing and book making is related to the length of the shoot. For a 3-hour shoot, editing and book making may take a day. For an 8-hour shoot, it\u2019s more like 2-3 days. For 12 or more hours of shooting, you&#8217;re looking at maybe 4 days or a week.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m sure every photographer who does weddings will have a different take on how they explain their pricing, but I hope by explaining how much time we spend to make your day run smoothly and produce a book\/album that you can treasure for years to come, it&#8217;s shed some light on the mystery of wedding photography prices.<\/p>\n<style>\r\n.lwrp.link-whisper-related-posts{\r\n            \r\n            margin-top: 40px;\nmargin-bottom: 30px;\r\n        }\r\n        .lwrp
