Permits for shooting in public places

Shooting in some public places needs a permit. At the Melbourne Gardens, a professional photography permit costs from A$187 including GST. In the City of Sydney, a filming or photography permit has an application fee of A$100 and an approval fee of A$670. In Victorian parks, a wedding of more than 100 people needs a permit and a certificate of currency for insurance. Check the venue before you book the photographer.

Season and light

November is late spring. Summer from December to February gives long daylight for outdoor photos but makes guests and the couple hot, so plan the portraits for early or late in the day. Winter, June to August, has shorter days, so more of the shoot moves indoors or needs a flash.

How packages are sold

Packages are priced per coverage, usually by the hour, and often include albums and prints. One Sydney studio lists a ten-hour photography and film package at A$6,298 including GST. Ask whether a second photographer, albums, parent albums and prints are included, because these change the total quite a lot.

What to write in your request

Give the wedding date, the duration you need, the location, what to film, the number of edited photos, the shooting style you like, any extras, your delivery deadline and your budget. A few sample photos of the style you want make the first quote much more accurate.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the wedding in your own words in a chat, and a photo can help. The AI asks for missing details, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Australia, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, and your contact details stay hidden until you decide to exchange them. Look at photography and retouching, videography and video editing, or start with a request on the home page.

It depends on the venue. Melbourne Gardens require a permit for professional photography, and Victorian parks require one for weddings of more than 100 people.

Which season is best for outdoor photos?
