Marie-Sam, never done a BD shoot but my FI and I are wedding photogs and we really dont expect to get tipped (Maybe thats a British thing?).

 

If your photog is a professional she will have covered all her essential costs plus made a profit in the price she's charging you. Unless she is just starting out or doing your shoot for free, or at a discount I wouldnt feel obliged to tip.

 

Of course its always nice to get tipped but for me personally I always think this is better in your follow up session, when you get your album, cd etc you have seen the work she has produced is to your requirements and then you are showing you are happy with your overall experience. If you are not meeting in person again you could always include a little something in a thank you card... This is usually how we get tipped. Hope this helps.

 

Try to relax, your shoot will be great fun. Enjoy

bunny_4.gifHey girl! I am soooo excited for you!!! You will have a great time and I know you will look like a gorgeous hottie in your pics!S&M.gif As for your question-I did not tip my photographer at the BD shoot. I am going to bring her a little gift when I go pick up my BD book from her studio though...maybe something like a really good smelling candle and a pedicure gift card. I wouldn't worry about it....just worry about yourself today. You can always bring her a gift later or tip her when your pics come in! bunny_4.gif

Marie-Sam, your pictures will be fantastic! Thank you for posting the link to your photog. Another BDW bride and I were looking for someone in the Southern Cali area and Beth's work looks incredible. If you take a deep breath and relax, you'll have an amazing time!

 

P.S. Would you be willing to post a review of your experience today for those of us who are interested in her work?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
