How do you motivate photographers to work efficiently and get quality service? If you like the article, please share the link to this article and give advice. Before entering the main topic of the article, I am also presenting a true story, which will make it easier to understand the topic presented here.
 
About a year ago, I went to the market with my sister to buy a scooter. My sister liked Yamaha's scooter, but I liked Telji's new electric scooter. We had a long discussion on this matter. My sister's friend also bought a Yamaha scooter, but the price was much more expensive than the Tenji. She didn't know the reasons behind her liking the scooter, but I thought that the electric scooter was right for her because her office was only 4 kilometers away from her house, and she always used to drive the scooter slowly on her way to work. It was pointless to buy an expensive scooter and spend a lot of money on it. In the end,my sister bought the Yamaha scooter, but now she says that it is better to buy the electric scooter. Which one is right? How much CC is it, and for various other reasons, the prices of scooters of similar but different models vary, and what is their first requirement? For example, it is appropriate to understand its power, oil consumption, maintenance, etc. We understand that the price varies due to such differences, so this topic is similar but slightly different. The same is true with wedding photography and videography, as we need to consider various aspects before selecting a photographer and videographer, and it needs to be handled carefully.

The minimum one-day price of wedding photography and videography ranges from Rs 15000 to Rs 100000 or more. If you are wondering why there is so much difference in price, please read it carefully, and now I will clear up this curiosity. 20 years ago, when I was doing photography and videography for one day, I used to print photos and give 200 copies of photo albums for 6,000 rupees, but now I myself take 40000 for doing this work, 50000 for some, and 60000 for others. When working in 35000, there is only normal editing of videos. Similarly, I also provide many services, such as photo printing, photo framing, video editing, video highlights, tiktok highlights, etc., for Rs. 35,000. And there are other important reasons in the market that cause a lot of difference in prices, so get the basic information about those reasons.

1-Experience
Experience makes a difference in the price of wedding photography. Experience (here I am not talking about studio photographers; by old I mean only those who have been doing wedding photography for the past 15/20 years): Photographer's experience, skill, knowledge of time, experience of wedding ceremony, etc. The ability to combine the guests and the family at what time and the ability to take photos, etc., as well as the contribution to the program, etc., also make a difference in the price. By sending them to shoot the wedding on the pretext of making it practical, they showed the parts of the important time like the wedding on Facebook and the website. Similarly, your wedding ceremony is not being used to gather experience by showing the names of experienced people. It is important to pay attention to this. You must have a direct conversation with the photographer you are hiring. These programs occur once in a lifetime and hence need to be handled carefully.

 

2-Technology
In the digital era, new technologies are introduced to the market every month. The first choice for a wedding photographer is to invest in technology.New cameras will have modified lighting, and they will come with high technology and quality. The necessity of investing in technology to compete with the market is the main choice for photographers. However, when an experienced quality photographer goes to a wedding, he arrives with at least 10 lakhs worth of goods; similarly, a cinematographer uses equipment that costs at least 8 lakhs.

 

3-Past production
20–25 years ago, when I and my teacher, that is, my mentor, were going to shoot a wedding video, as soon as the program was over, he would take out the VHS cassette from the video camera and give it to me. This is not the case in the current changing environment; due to the technology and the level of quality, the photos taken today can be edited in two days, while it takes a week to make a special editing design and then print it again. We have our own color lab, so it takes us less time. Another thing is that for high-quality albums, they have to be sent to India, so the average time to send them can take weeks or even months. The same is the case with videos. Those who are in a hurry to earn more will not be able to finish it on time. So, these things make a difference for photographers.
