Professional Photography Without Video for Your Phoenix Celebration
If you only want photos, our event photography only coverage in Phoenix runs 4 to 8 hours and starts at $1,250. Before you decide, compare it with our photo and video packages, because film keeps the voices, the music and the movement that a photo can't hold.
This page helps you choose. First you'll see the combined packages, then the photography only options and what they leave out.
Combined Photo and Video Packages: Compare These First
Our combined packages include photo and video from the same crew. Essential is $2,150 for 8 hours, Complete is $3,250 for 10 hours and Deluxe is $4,995 for 12 hours.
If you want a session before the event, look at the combined packages. See the details on wedding packages or quinceañera packages; quinceañeras use the same packages at the same prices.
Photography Only Prices in Phoenix: Essential, Classic and Signature
There are three photography only options. Essential is $1,250 for 4 hours, Classic is $1,550 for 6 hours and Signature is $1,895 for 8 hours.

What Photography Only Coverage Does Not Include
Photography only coverage does not include video or a pre-event session. It's a professional photographer for the hours you choose, on the day of your event.
If you later decide you want the pre-event session or the film, review the combined packages before you book. That way you compare with everything in view.
When Photography Only Makes Sense in Phoenix
Photography only makes sense when someone else is already filming, or when photos are what you most want to keep. These are common cases:
- You already hired another videographer. We coordinate with that person; read what to agree on with another photographer or videographer (opens in a new tab).
- Your wedding is at home or on a family ranch. Two weddings in our portfolio were like that, with photography only.
- Your celebration is shorter. With 4 or 6 hours, you can cover the part that matters most to you.
Denisse and Ricardo married at her parents' ranch house in Phoenix. Ana and David had their session at Royal Palm Park and celebrated at home in Phoenix. Anneliese's quinceañera at Legacy Reception Hall in Phoenix was also photography only.
Your Event Day With Photography Only in Phoenix
With photography only, your photographer arrives at the agreed time and covers the hours you chose. Before the event, we go over the timeline and places with you, so those hours cover what matters most to you.
During the event, the photographer gives directions in English or Spanish, whichever your family prefers. We take the group photo before guests pull out their phones, so everyone looks at one camera.
We bring backup equipment to every event. If your photographer gets sick, a team member steps in; if nobody is available, you get a full refund.
If you're not sure which option to choose, send us your timeline. We'll tell you how many hours each part of the day takes.
Photo Delivery: Selection, Gallery and Prints
You have 4 weeks after the event to select your photos. From your selection, photography only delivery usually takes 2 to 4 weeks.
You receive your photos in an online gallery. Your downloads include permission to print for personal use, plus 20% off professional prints through the gallery.
We keep your material for one year. The contract sets the final terms.
