The last few years have been tough ones for professional wedding photographers, as it seems that our main competition seems to come from the 'keen enthusiast' who fancies chancing his arm at earning a few quid on a Saturday, photographing cheap weddings, and consequently slashing prices to an unrealistic level. I'm pleased to say that I have weathered this storm by not compromising my product too much, but making sure that my product is great value for money and of a high quality. Rant over :o)
Whilst most of my wedding clients end up with a pretty bespoke product the packages are always a good starting point when building just the right deal for you. Here are the packages:
Standard Wedding Package: £1,350
Includes:
If you would like more images in your final album, or perhaps a different size, then here are a few examples of other options (prices are in addition to the Standard Package):
Premier Wedding Package: £1,720 (represents a saving of £125 on items bought separately)
Includes:
Deluxe Wedding Package: £1,900 (represents a huge saving of £200 on items bought separately)
Includes:
Alternatively, you may like to split and separate the items within the packages, although it must be pointed out that the packages do represent better value for money.
Photography by the hour (minimum of 2 hours), sometimes the budget won’t stretch to full wedding coverage. In this case I am prepared to turn up for a shorter period during the day. This may still allow you to get part of the day captured for posterity, whether it be at the church or from church onwards. : £90 per hour (inclusive of post-production)
30 page Hardback Proof album max 270 images, dependent on number of hours coverage (not suggested unless coverage is over 4 hours) : £300
Digital proof album (more suitable when only a couple of hours coverage are booked) 50p per image supplied memory stick (minimum charge of £60)
(The images are supplied as medium resolution files, ideal for TV or computer slideshow. It must be stressed that copyright remains with Mansel Davies and this is not meant as a print-facilitating medium)
Copyright & Hi Res Images : sometimes I am asked to release the full size images. This can be done at a cost of £1 per image and as a pre-agreed collection only. i.e. if the proof album contains 250 then an extra charge of £250 will apply for release of copyright and hi res files.
