When you find out the website of professional photographer where you love to see his photographs, but when you see the prices, you will be shocked by the rates. Job of a photographer is very difficult. If the photographer is independently running his business, then they work very hard but maintain and build and have very expensive investment.

Following are the reasons for Wedding photographs to be expensive

1. They are Qualified Photographers- On your wedding day, while paying to photographer, you remember that you are not only paying for the photographer's time, but you are paying to the years of dedication to create tremendous photographs few hours of your wedding day. By paying more for a best qualified and experienced photographer, you are assuring to have sweet weeding memories in the coming years. These photographers spend infinite nights for the latest ways to meliorate their work and photography.

2. Type of work is seasonal- There are seasons of weddings; hence photographers have chances to earn during that time. Even photographers cannot work under unpleasant weather conditions. They can only have eight to nine busy months in a year. If photographer gets 30 or more weddings in a year then he is having very excellent year for him to have his expenses.

3. Responsibilities over timings- A photographer has to be alert for many chances like dropping up his camera, if this disk gets corrupted. He doesn't get a chance to shoot that particular moment again if it's missed once. Hence he has to be prepared for risks and to cover one-moment photographs. Hence they have to get prepared themselves by having numerous good qualities or cameras, software for recovery of an image and numerous disks, and list of events that cannot be shoot again. This can be very costly to maintain and hence they ask for higher fees.

4. Expensive Tools- Very high quality camera can cost more than $5,000. Lenses can cost more than $10,000 to capture several different photographs for ceremony and reception. Even a high quality camera needs to be replaced in couple of years. Even there are light meters, camera bags, tripods, flashes and other gears to maintain.

5. Commitment towards work- A wedding photographer explains the prices of photographs rather than to apologize to the quality of pictures. After few years of your wedding, while watching the photographs, you will not concern the prices of the photos but to the quality of the photographs.

Even hidden work, intangible artistry makes wedding photography expensive. Hence anyone can agree with this. Even a photographer can cost more than expected but it is better to pay higher rather than getting bad quality photographs. Thus have sweet memories with high quality photographs.
