How much does an Irish elopement photographer cost?
Eloping Costs in Ireland
When it comes to elopement photography in Ireland, the cost can vary depending on a few different factors. But generally speaking, in Cork and Killarney, you can expect to pay anywhere from €1,500 to €10,000 for an elopement photographer. Of course, this will depend on the photographer's experience and reputation, as well as the package you choose.
Now, I know you're probably thinking "whoa, that's a pretty big range!" And sure aren't you right too! But here's the thing: different photographers offer different services and products. So it's important to consider what's included in the package before you make a decision. For example, some photographers may not be from Ireland at all and include flights and accommodation (not great for your carob footprint), while others might offer an integrated elopement planning service, or others might include a certain number of hours of coverage, multi day packages, albums, videographers or a certain number of prints.
When you're looking at elopement packages, it's also a good idea to think about what you'll want to do with your photos after the elopement. Do you want to make an album? Do you want to get some prints framed for your home? Some photographers include those things in their packages, while others don't. So it's important to keep that in mind.
Let's talk about the photographer's portfolio. It's important to look at a photographer's work before you decide to book them. This will give you a sense of their style and approach. If you're into candid, relaxed, and easy going photography (aka me), then you'll want to look for a photographer whose portfolio reflects that.
