|
|
|
| Im in the process of hiring a photographer for my wedding on May and i was wondering if I have to pay for their food at the wedding? They are pretty expensive and i do not feel like paying 80 dollars for the food but i dont want them to starve at the wedding either? What should i do? |

| If you are going to have your photographer just take pics during the wedding, then you do not necessarily need to buy them a plate....although it would be a nice gesture. If you are having the photographer take pictures during the ceremony and throughout the reception, ask them if they normally eat at the reception or if they eat after, then go from there. |

I would buy them a plate at the wedding! If they are nourished they will do a better job and feel more involed in the wedding.
If buying them a plate is not possible, at least give them some cake or buy them a drink! |

| I would ask what they want you to do. This might already be included in their fee. They might not eat during the shoot for some reason. I wouldn't just go spend money trying to be nice, but I wouldn't want to make them starve either. |

Unless I am on a limited number of shooting hours, I usually eat. Working 10 to 12+ hours on a wedding a photographer, (being human), needs energy. I am usually included, and thankful..

| I agree it can be a long day. If I have full coverage I generally have a bar snack bought for me rather than the actual wedding meal...sandwich and a drink (soft) is fine. |
