Welcome to Ilumography’s pricing guide for wedding photography
I’m stoked to have you here! Having you here and wanting to know more about my prices is super exciting! The fact that you’re here means you already made contact with me and I cannot tell you how excited I am to have you here.
My approach might be a little different from what you’re used to. I don’t build my packages around strict hourly limits or ticking clocks. Instead, I offer an experience. Having a professional photographer by your side who’s there to tell the full story of your day, without the stress of watching the time. And not having to rush to get everything done before a certain time. This should be the best day ever, no stress, no rush, no worries.
My goal is to keep my pricing straightforward so you can choose what works best for you without feeling overwhelmed. If you need something more custom, I’d love to create a tailored quote just for you - please do get in touch with me.

Additional extras
I am offering a few optional extras as I’m trying to keep my base price exactly that. That offers you the opportunity to personalise your package by adding a few fun extras to make your day even more special. If there’s something else you would like that you don’t see here, please get in touch with me and I’ll make a plan for you.

$300
Normally $400 but because you are booking a wedding package you get a special price.
45 minute session at a location of your choice (travel fee dependant on location)
50+ edited images online gallery
-
$750
Highlight video available as an addition to any package. This is a short film with background music to show family and friends your special day in a very special way. If you book the 1 photographer option photos will be prioritised over video at the most important moments (like the first kiss etc) but it can always be recreated if it’s important to you.
The ceremony and speeches are not recorded in a highlight video as everything is filmed without sound and static (no tripods). If you would like a more extensive video option that includes sound, let me know.
-
If you love TikTok, Reels, or just having beautiful behind-the-scenes moments captured, you can add a dedicated content creator to any of my packages for an additional $1500. This includes real-time coverage throughout your day, short-form vertical videos, candid moments, detail clips, and a curated selection of ready-to-post content within 48 hours. It’s the ideal way to relive the magic instantly while I craft your full gallery.

I aim to give my couples a beautiful, relaxed experience, without watching the clock all day. That’s why I offer a full-day package. The only reason I officially wrap up coverage at 22:00 is to protect my physical and creative energy, ensuring you get the very best from me throughout your day.
If things run slightly behind schedule, I’m always happy to wait for the final event of the evening. If the delay is more significant, I’ll check in with your coordinator, MC, or with you directly to chat about staying longer. Should I stay past 22:30, an additional charge of $500 will apply, and I’ll communicate this clearly before going ahead. After 23:00 it will be $500 per hour, which will also by clearly communicated ahead of time.
If none of my packages are what you are looking for, please do get in touch with me and I’ll happily work out a custom package tailored specifically for your needs.

About the (your) photographer
I photograph only ten weddings a year, intentionally. Your day deserves someone who pours heart and soul into every moment, and limiting my bookings means I can give you my absolute best. Because of that, it’s really important that we’re the right fit and that both of us feel excited and confident moving forward.
If you’d like to get to know me a little better, you can read more about me by clicking the button below.
And if you’re feeling even a tiny spark that we might be a good match, I’d highly encourage a no-obligation video call. It’s the easiest way for us to chat, connect, and see if it feels right — no pressure, just real conversation.
The (Easy) Booking Process
Once you have decided what you want to book and you want to make it official (woohoo!!) click on the link below to go directly to my booking form. But if you are not there yet, not to worry. I will be sending it via email again in any way.
Once I receive your booking form you will receive your invoice and a little note from me. Once I have received your booking fee all is signed and sealed and your date is confirmed! Celebrations are in order - WOOHOO!
