Hours on site
The single biggest factor. A two-hour launch and a ten-hour conference day are different jobs before anything else is decided.
Events are quoted per event, not from a wedding package. Here is exactly what changes the number, so you know what to ask for.
Event photography is quoted per event rather than from a fixed package. That is a deliberate choice, not evasiveness: a two-hour birthday and a three-day conference running four parallel halls have almost nothing in common, and a single starting price would mislead most of the people reading it.
What follows is exactly what moves the number, so you can brief us properly and compare quotes honestly.
The single biggest factor. A two-hour launch and a ten-hour conference day are different jobs before anything else is decided.
Multi-day conferences and exhibitions are quoted by day, usually at a better rate per day than a single booking.
One photographer covers one hall. If three sessions run at once, you need three people or you will miss two of them.
Event films, highlight reels and speaker recordings mean a second in-house crew alongside the photographers.
Same-evening delivery means an editor working through the event rather than afterwards, and that is priced in.
On-site headshots, printed photographs at the venue, drone where permitted, and branded galleries.
Most events need fewer hours and a smaller crew than a wedding, so they are quoted well below wedding coverage, which starts at ₹80,000 for a single day. A short birthday shoot sits at the bottom of our range; a multi-day conference with film and same-day delivery can sit above a single-day wedding.
If you are planning a wedding rather than an event, see wedding photography packages instead, which do have published starting prices.
Send us these and you will usually have a written quote the same day:
And whether it moves.
Hall, hotel, office or outdoors.
Start and finish, roughly.
And whether you need drone.
Same evening, next day, or standard.
Send the date, venue and hours and we will price it properly, usually the same day. Weekday and same-week bookings are normally possible.
