Additional photo shoot (late afternoon, night shoot, etc.)

  • R1200 – R2200/hour

This is the per-hour-rate for additional wedding photo shoot not covered on the day of the wedding. A wedding – one of the most beautiful and memorable moments in a person's life – can be quite exhausting. Hence, couples often opt for a separate photo shoot on another day when they are rested, looking their best. The photo shoot is often carried out in the late afternoon an/or at night when the light conditions are particularly favourable to create magical results. For additional wedding photo shoot, expect to pay between R1200/hour and R2200/hour.

Wedding video

  • R8000 – R16,000

More experienced videographers cost more. The price includes video coverage on the wedding, all editing work, and a digital video file. Travel time, drone footage, extra edits, etc. are charged extra. Wedding video costs range between R8000 and R16,000 with an average of R12,000.
