Every moment spent with your loved ones is a moment to treasure. These moments are free to keep when it’s stored in your mind.
But sadly, our brains aren’t designed to keep all of these memories intact. Over time, we lose track of them, though there are still remnants that are stored as long term memory in our minds.
That’s why it is a good idea to engage a professional photographer to capture those memories so that we can look back on them as we grow old to reminisce about the fun times we have with our loved ones.
But this comes at a price, and this is how much you can expect to pay for family photoshoot packages in Singapore.
Cost Breakdown For Photoshoot Packages
For those who are unfamiliar with photoshoot packages, here’s a quick primer on the costs involved in photoshoots.
Types of photoshoots
The first factor that determines a huge part of the cost is the theme. There are a couple of themes that you can choose from:
- Family shoot
- Newborn/baby shoot
- Maternity shoot
- Studio or outdoor shoot
Family shoots with adults and children are typically the cheapest among them, which costs between $200 to $800.
This is followed by maternity shoot and newborn/baby shoots, which could cost up to almost $1,000.
This is slightly higher due to skills involved in capturing the best moments for babies as compared to adults.
After all, you can’t exactly ask a baby to pose for you, unlike adults. As such, more effort is required to capture not just every moment, but also know the opportune time to get those shots.
Lastly, the location matters – a studio shoot is slightly cheaper than the outdoor option, as it requires less preparation work in a fixed setting. The price difference is in the range of $100 to $200 between an indoor and outdoor shoot.
Photo edits and number of photos (soft copy and hard copy)
Photo edits and number of photos are other factors that you need to take note of as well. Photoshoot packages usually come with a predefined number of edited photos.
But if you prefer to have more edited photos, you will need to fork out more for this service.
Make sure to read the fine print as well if you want to get the soft copy of all the photos that were taken. Most photography services will charge extra for such requests.
