Photographer’s Deposit?

Anyone have any idea how much a deposit for a photographer would be? We are thinking of using Twelfth Night, but haven’t met with anyone yet. I just want to be prepared when I go!

our dep was $1000.

I have to say, it may depend on the amount of your package. Why not give a call & ask what they consider a standard deposit?

We are using 12th Night. Our deposit was 1/3 the total cost or $600.

Our deposit was also 1/3 of the total. I think the next third was a week before the wedding and the final payment when we got the proofs? Not totally sure.

Mine was $600 to hold the date. MY photogrpaher works her packages a la cart but I believe 1/2 of the remainder is due before the wedding (maybe one month?) and the rest when we pick up the proofs.
