Good day. Our entry packages in Durban start from about R 5,000 for a full day of digital images. Will there be a second photographer, and how many guests are you expecting?

Peak season and booking

Photographers in South Africa count October to April as their peak season, and November falls in the middle of it. Book now for a date later in the season, especially for a summer wedding between December and February. Outdoor ceremonies in the summer heat need a plan for shade and a backup spot, so ask the photographer how they handle midday light.

Copyright, privacy and trespass

Photography in South Africa is shaped by copyright, privacy and trespass law, so ask who keeps the copyright to the images and how guests' pictures will be used. Ask also whether a private venue needs permission before you shoot there. Put these answers in the contract, so the terms are clear before the day.

What a package includes

Packages are sold by coverage hours and the number of edited images. One studio's package covers 12 hours, while another offers 700 to 800 digital images, and a highlight film can be added to either. Extra hours for one photographer are R 900 each in one price list, and a second photographer can be added. VAT and travel are often added on top, so compare the total.

What to put in your request

Give the wedding date, the town or venue, the number of hours of coverage and whether you want video. Say how many edited photos you expect, the deadline for delivery, and whether you want a second photographer or a particular shooting style. Mention your budget so the sellers can answer with a realistic offer.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the wedding in your own words in a chat, and it is free for buyers. The assistant asks for missing details, looks through photographers' websites and price lists in South Africa, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered sellers reply in the chat with their own package, price and delivery terms, and your contact details stay hidden until you decide who to share them with. You can create a request or see videography and video editing.
