About RM 600-800 per 4 hours average.

Better allocate about 2-2.5k for the whole day to be on the safe side.


This is kinda normal for Malay's event. Professional level photographer.

too many hipster and noobies who buy big ass whoop camera with telephoto zoom lens and suddenly they become professional photographer already

then offer ridiculously low prices and packages

which matches with their crappy work quality

most important thing is they teach you how to pose and smile naturally - they always ask you to have a conversation with your beau, and bam, they snap a photo that looks soo natural

i'd say if u have the money for video, the photo u should also have the money. personal opinion is, down the road, would you open up a CD to watch your wedding video again?

i'd look at my photos, maybe, but video is..nah. used to be a photographer, until seriously tired doing it part-time since i'd like to spend my time with my family more.

but yeah, price is 1.5k-3k average and higher usually is more pro, but do look at their past portfolio cuz u dont want to get screwed with
A) an amateur photog who thinks highly of himself
B) an amateur/pro whose style does not suit what you want out of your hiring of them

Ours was taken by these guys. They travel around the world all the time but if they are in your city, you might want to book a time with them. Can find out their itinerary from them.

it should be 2-2.5k perday.

to do list.

1. plss ask for their list of equipment before hiring. (noob equipment= newbie)

2. ask for portfolio.

3. don't go for below 1k price unless the professional photographer is your friend and helping u.

4. avoid those who manipulated their picture in their portfolio.
