Re: do you tip the photographer and the videographer?

We did not tip them. According to Martha Stewart, if the photographer owns his or her own business you don't need to tip.

However, I'm so thrilled with my pics that we are sending them a huge holiday basket of goodies to thank them.

Re: do you tip the photographer and the videographer?

i agree. if the photographer is the owner, then you dont have to tip. and that goes with all vendors.

All my vendors were the owners of the company but I tipped them anyway because they went above and beyond for us.
