Wondering What’s Included in a “LUXURY” Wedding Photography Package?
When it comes to your wedding day, you want more than just photos—you want a complete, immersive story of your day. A luxury wedding photography package is all about elevating your experience and capturing every moment in a way that feels timeless, personal, and full of details. But what exactly makes a wedding photography package luxury? Let’s break it down.
1. A Second Shooter – Why? Diverse Shots That Capture Every Angle
Luxury wedding photography isn’t just about getting the “main” shots—it’s about making sure every moment is documented, from different perspectives. A second shooter allows for multiple angles and the ability to capture both wide shots and intimate, candid moments. While you’re sharing your vows, your second shooter is there to capture your guests' reactions, the details, and everything that tells the full story of your day.
2. A Minimum of 8 Hours of Coverage
Anything less than 8 hours of coverage might leave gaps in your story. Luxury weddings are about capturing all the little details, the emotion, and the vision behind your day. From the pre-ceremony excitement to the last dance, an 8-hour minimum ensures that no important moment is missed. Luxury is all about documenting your entire day and making sure every moment is told through your photos.
3. Film Photography (OR Other Unique Imagery)
Film photography brings an entirely different, vintage feel to your photos—giving them a timeless, soft look that digital just can’t match. Many luxury photographers, like myself, incorporate both digital and film photography to give couples the best of both worlds. And why stop there? Luxury packages often include drone photography, giving you sweeping aerial shots that add diversity and artistry to your collection of images.
4. Add-Ons to Enhance Your Experience
A luxury wedding photography package can also include a variety of add-ons to elevate your experience even further. These might include:
- Engagement Sessions: A chance to get to know your photographer and create stunning images before the big day.
- Printed Photo Albums: Beautiful, high-quality albums that tell your story in print, offering a tangible memory of your wedding day.
- Welcome Party Coverage: The excitement begins before the wedding day, and a luxury package can cover your pre-wedding celebrations.
- After Party Coverage: Capture the fun and energy as the celebration continues long after the reception.
5. Resources, Assistance, Meetings, and Guidance
A luxury wedding photography package goes beyond just showing up on the wedding day. It includes valuable resources, ongoing assistance, and multiple meetings to ensure everything is in place. From offering advice on timelines and locations to being there for you every step of the way, luxury photography means you have someone who truly cares and is invested in making your day seamless—someone who’s gotten to know you and your vision well before the wedding.
6. Bonus: A Trusted Videographer with a Similar Style
Photography and videography go hand in hand when it comes to luxury weddings. The best luxury photographers often work with a trusted videographer who shares a similar style. This ensures your photos and videos flow seamlessly together, capturing your day in complementary, breathtaking ways. Having a cohesive visual style between both is key to telling your wedding story beautifully.
