Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. And while the flowers will fade and the cake will be eaten, your wedding photos will last forever. That’s why investing in a professional wedding photographer is more than just a cost — it’s a way to relive those moments for years to come.
But one of the most common questions couples ask is: “How much should we spend on wedding photography?” Let’s break it down.

Before diving into numbers, it’s important to understand what you’re paying for:
