Hey all, going to piggy back on this thread. Should you tip you photographer for your engagement shoot? Our e-shoot is 'included' in our wedding package, in case that info helps/changes the answer. Thanks!

hmm...we didn't for ours. I didnt think about it to be honest and the whole thing lasted 15 minutes. Our was included in our package as well.

Plus, we tipped him really good for the wedding and he's the owner so I'm sure it was fine that we didnt for the engagement shoot. lol

We tried to tip him for the E-Shoot but he's the owner and said to give it to his assistant instead so we did.

We had ours a month ago and we didn't tip him. We did however offered to take him to dinner after which he also declined. Fiance used to photograph weddings a lot and he said it's really not customary to get tips, prob the assistant.

I didn't. I was on the fence to begin with and then it was such an adrenaline rush I simply forgot. Honestly, I do not think it is necessary bc he was the owner and I will be tipping for the wedding. I feel like the tipping gets out of hand.


Is it necessary to tip the church? I thought I read someone had tipped them. But I feel like after the donation and extra fees for music (for 30-45minutes) is more than enough. Or am I being cheap and anxious about the amount of money that is being spent?
