Do You Tip a Photographer? When, How Much and Why to Tip?
Photodoto TipsDespite the fact that it is not necessary to tip photographers for their services, it is increasingly becoming common, particularly if they go the extra mile.
In this article, we will discuss when you should and shouldn’t tip a photographer, solid reasons to tip your photographer, and more.
Although not all types of photographers demand or require tips, it’s a decent rule of thumb to leave about 10%. Think about your contract’s provisions and if your photographer is a part of a business or self-employed when determining how much to tip them.
Is there a general rule for tipping a photographer?
Determining how much to tip a photographer can be a little tricky. Typically, the tip for photographers is $50 to $100. You should not, however, tip over 10% of the whole amount. If you get your pictures quickly and are pleased with how they turned out, you can choose to tip more. To ensure that the photographer receives the full tip for their work, you should always pay it to the individual photographer rather than the company.
