Hours are the main lever in a photography quote. In our New York submissions that report coverage hours, 6 hours of coverage runs a median of about $4,350, around 8 hours about $6,000, and 10+ hours about $8,750. Longer coverage is the biggest reason two quotes from the same photographer can look very different, so compare packages at the hour count you actually need.

What do these prices include?
Every number comes from a couple's real quote or receipt, rolled together the way it was billed. For wedding photographers that typically means: Coverage hours as quoted, post-production editing, online gallery delivery, and standard image rights. These prices leave out videography, second shooter, drone, engagement session, fine-art prints, albums, and travel beyond the local radius.
