Photographer Tipping Question

We're having our enegagement photo shoot this weekend (recently found out it was included in our package). The owner of the place is taking the photos. His assistant will be taking the photos at our wedding. Should I still tip the owner this weekend even though he's essentially getting all of the money for the photography package? If so, how much? TIA.

Totally not necessary. I would wait til the wedding and if all goes well at the engagement shoot and wedding then tip if you want to!!

My initial reaction was to wait for the wedding, but I wasn't sure because we're having 2 different photographers-1 (the owner) taking the engagement shoot and 1 (his assistant) taking the wedding pictures. With two different people, I'd probably tip each photographer for each shoot, but when the owner is the one taking the engagement shoot, I wasn't sure what to do about tipping him.
