I was told that the industry standard was to tip 15% each person for the total package that you purchased from your photographer and/or videographer for the photos they shoot on your wedding day. is that correct??
This article was really helpful, thanks for sharing!

Re: Photographers - Tipping
Are you all seriously tipping 15% ontop of everything else? My package is $7000 NOT INCLUDING video so this would mean another $1050 ... no freaking way. I am pissed off about this whole tipping business. My limos are including a 20% mandatory tip for 5 hours 'work'. Are you joking me? 20%???? Since when are tips 20% and for what exactly??? The service better be exemplary. Driving me from the churhc to reception a whole 2 miles??? Daaaaamn.

FH and I think 15% is crazy! FH and I do NOT plan to tip them that much. We were thinking like $50-60 for each of them.
His GM that used the same photographers we are told us he tipped 15% and we are shocked if thats the standard!

You really should check out the link I posted above.
No one/single person should get more then $150.00. For example: Let’s say your limo bus is $2000.00. 10 or 15% of that total is 200 or 300 dollars, not necessary.
