I had a photographer all day, photojournalist in the morning through the end of the cocktail hour and then he stayed longer even though we didn't ask him and an asst.

I gave the main photographer $100
The photojournalist $75
the asst $40 - 50 - don't remember exactly

My photographers owned the company but I gave them a $300 tip. They were great and took awesome pictures and I would have given them more if I could have : ).

I had two photogaphers. One was the owner, the other was for candids. I planned to give to give him $150, and her $100, but they left before I could tip them! I plan to give it to them when I pick up my proofs.

Am I the only one who booked Duet? My contract says I need to tip them 10%, which works out to be $100 for 2 photographers and 1 videographer. I think that's a bit steep. Is that something I have to do or a guideline?
