The Investment — Why Our Wedding Photography Prices Are Lower
Most London wedding photographers charge between £1,300 and £2,000 for a full day. Our 10-hour full-day package is £980 less than what many photographers charge for 5 hours.
We keep our prices low by photographing more weddings each year and running a lean, efficient operation. That saving goes directly to you. Our standards are not lower our overheads are.
There is no minimum spend beyond the 2-hour registry office booking. No booking fee beyond the 50% deposit. No travel surcharge within London. No Saturday premium. No surprise invoice after your wedding.

Pre-Wedding and Engagement Shoots
Available on enquiry. A relaxed shoot before your wedding at any London location park, landmark or somewhere personal to you. Get in touch to discuss options and availability.
Our Photography Style — Candid and Documentary
We work in a candid, documentary style. We stay in the background, move quietly and photograph what is actually happening rather than stopping your day to set up shots.
The result is a set of images that looks and feels like your wedding genuine expressions, real moments, people behaving naturally. Around 90% of what we deliver is unposed.
We do a short session of group family photos and natural couple portraits most couples want these and they are worth having. But the majority of your gallery will be candid and real.
If you want more direction or more posed couple portraits, we can adapt. We follow your lead.
Photo Delivery — Turnaround Within 7 Days
We deliver all edited photos within 7 days of your wedding. For smaller bookings of 3 hours or less, we often deliver sooner.
You will receive a small selection of preview images within 48 hours so you have something to share straight away. Your full gallery arrives via a private online link with high-resolution downloads included.
Albums, where ordered, are delivered separately and typically take 2 to 4 weeks depending on the product.
Frequently Asked Questions — Wedding Photography Prices London
How much does a wedding photographer cost per hour in London?
At HOBS FILMS our wedding photography prices start at £260 for 2 hours that is £130 per hour at the entry level. Longer packages work out at a lower hourly rate. A 5-hour half-day is £580 (£116 per hour) and a full 10-hour day is £980 (£98 per hour). Most London photographers do not publish hourly rates they sell fixed packages. We list every hour so you can book exactly what you need.
What is included in the wedding photography price?
Every package includes: professionally edited photos, a private online gallery with high-resolution downloads, full copyright and print rights, all London travel, a written contract and public liability insurance. Packages of 5 hours or more include a pre-wedding consultation call. Nothing is added to your invoice after you book.
Do you charge a booking fee?
Yes. A 50% deposit is required to secure your wedding date. The remaining 50% is due one month before your wedding. We cannot hold wedding dates without a deposit if another couple books the same date first, the date is theirs. Once your deposit is received and your contract is signed, your date is fully confirmed.
How many photos will we receive?
A 2-hour booking delivers 80 or more edited images. A 5-hour half-day delivers 350 or more. A full 10-hour day delivers 900 or more. We do not cap the number of images we deliver every usable shot from your day, individually edited in a clean, natural style. The only images we do not include are duplicates, test shots and anything technically unusable.
Do we receive the RAW (unedited) files?
No. Like most professional photographers, we do not provide unedited RAW files. The edited gallery you receive is the finished work colour graded, exposure corrected and delivered in our house style. Providing RAW files would be like a restaurant giving guests uncooked ingredients. The edit is half of what you are paying for.
Do you have wedding photographer insurance?
Yes. We carry full public liability insurance, which we can share with your venue on request. Many London town halls and licensed venues require proof of insurance before the wedding day. We can provide this as standard for any booking.
Do weekend and Saturday wedding photographer prices cost more?
No. Our price is the same every day of the week and throughout the year. Many London photographers charge a Saturday premium or a peak summer surcharge. We do not. Monday to Sunday, January to December the price is the same.

How much does a combined photography and videography package cost?
Our combined photography and videography packages start at £610 for 3 hours. A full 10-hour day with both photo and video is £1,800. Booking together saves money compared to booking separately and gives you one team with a consistent style across your photos and film.
