How Much Does a Southern California Wedding Photographer Really Cost?
Thinking about wedding photography in the Bay Area?
Here’s the scoop:
Peek At Our Packages »
Prices vary a lot: a newer wedding photographer in Northern California might charge around $2k, while the best Bay Area wedding photographers offering full-day, personalized coverage usually start around $5k and up.
Plan to spend about 10–15% of your total wedding budget on photography — it’s one of the only things you’ll keep forever, so it’s worth the investment.
NorCal wedding photographer pricing usually starts around $5,000 for full-day professional coverage (and can go higher depending on what’s included).
What you’re really paying for is experience, editing style, and how supported you feel from the moment you inquire to the day your gallery drops.
We’re not just any Bay Area wedding photographers... we specialize in helping even the most camera-shy couples feel natural and confident in front of the lens.

...true colors and the photos look like a better version of real life.
Working with them was easy, communication was so thorough and they had great recommendations. I was so grateful that they built out a whole photo schedule for our day and worked with me to tweak it a bit. It helped to have the photos scheduled so we were never rushed throughout the day. I also love that when they deliver the album online you can share the link right away with family and friends. Makes everything SO easy for sharing and you bet my instagram is packed with Onelove photos right now!
