It sounds like you’ve already taken the pictures, eh?

In that case, if you didn’t go over these specifics beforehand, I’d give this person the best you can offer digitally (ONLY AFTER he pays!!!) and tell him prints or a photo album would cost extra. You can also show him examples of wedding photography pricing for your area and explain he is getting a huge discount, especially because you were available at the last minute.

Consider this a lesson and learn from it. Get everything in writing beforehand, even from people for whom you’re “just doing a favor.”

$300 is obscenely low for a wedding. Just as a comparison, where I live, I’ve seen people shooting passport photos for $80 + taxes (just a plain white background at their studios — no commuting and barely any editing time). In the future, it might be helpful to create yourself an itemized pricing list for any kind of photography work you’re willing to do, which you can pull out in situations like this. You should also have a “rush” fee for last-minute requests like this.

Upvoting this.

I think a lot of the downvotes are coming from non-professional male photographers who solicit young women on social media for boudoir shots, and they’re feeling attacked.
