How Much Does a Thailand Wedding Photographer Cost? -FAQ-

The cost of a Thailand wedding photographer can vary depending on experience, location, and coverage. At Daniel Baci Photography, full-day wedding photography packages start at $1,600 USD (approximately 50,000 THB). This includes professional coverage of your entire wedding day by an experienced destination wedding photographer based in Thailand. For customized packages or to check availability, feel free to contact me directly.

Yes, but what I charge depends on how much you want changed. There is no free re-editing. Also remember that, because of the amount of work I have, I don’t keep your footage for long after the edit. As soon as you have seen a sample via media share or YouTube, I will shortly afterwards delete your footage to make room for other projects.

After I have sent you your downloadable link(s), or sent your USB/SD/hard drives, and you confirm by email that you have received them, I only keep the images and videos on my HDD and/or Google Drive for 4-6 weeks before I delete all finished and RAW files. Please download your files and make copies once you receive your links, because we cannot be responsible for lost images or videos if you forget to download them. With the amount of work we have, we cannot hold on to your images and videos for longer than described.

I always tell my clients 8-16 weeks, depending on the time of year and how busy we are. It is sometimes less but rarely more. I like to take my time in post production, but the standard time in high season is 8-16 weeks, and it can be a little longer if I or my staff have public holidays, personal leave or sickness, or if we simply get backed up, normally with the video editing, which can take up to 7+ months. Everything is stated in our wedding contract agreement, so please read it before hiring us. Thank you.

Yes! I am a Phuket-based photographer, but I spend 50% of my time in Koh Samui and Krabi, and I can photograph or film your destination wedding all over Thailand, Asia or anywhere you would like. We have covered weddings in Sri Lanka, Bali, Maldives, Hong Kong, Italy, Singapore and the USA so far, so I would be more than happy to travel to your destination wedding.

I use the best cameras on the market: 2x Sony A74 with Sony lenses.

Please send me your details and I will make our wedding contract/agreement for you. We require a $80-$300 deposit to confirm your booking.

As a film producer and a business owner, we want to please our clients as much as we can. However, as filmmakers we know what works and what doesn’t for a film, and we have 100% creative control (as stated in our wedding contract). Our job is to deliver you the best product, and a song can really make or break a video. What I ask is that you select 5 songs. I will see if any of them work with the footage, and in most cases at least 1 of them does. If none of them work, I will let you know and we will make the song selection that fits your video best.

A wedding contract is just a legal agreement between us. Although we would all love to live on just trust, hiring a photographer or videographer from overseas may make you nervous, so this contract, with all my personal and company info on it, will hopefully help you feel more comfortable. The contract also states all the logistics that protect you, the client, and me, the supplier, in case anything is misunderstood. It is just professional, and all photographers normally have one. Here, take a look through a sample contract to see what it contains: Wedding contract.

My couples come from all over the world for their destination Thailand wedding, but most come from the following countries:

• 35%Hong Kong
• 35%Australia
• 10%Singapore
• 5%New Zealand
• 5%America
• 10%Everywhere else in the world

When I am not travelling around for wedding shoots I am a Phuket wedding photographer most of the time, but I also call Koh Samui my second home. Krabi weddings have become more popular too, so I spend lots of time travelling around Thailand in the high season! I originally come from Cape Cod, MA., USA, but moved to Phuket in 2009. (My address: Tantong Villa Phuket, Thailand 83000)

No, sorry. For any wedding inside the country of Thailand I only accept THB (Thai baht). I may sometimes quote in USD as it is an easier global currency people understand, but final payments must be in THB at the exchange rate at the time of quotation if quoted in a different currency, or you can refer to the currency conversion rate stated in our contract/agreement. For weddings outside of Thailand a separate agreement can be made.

I started my photography career as an intern in 2009, but it wasn’t until 2011, when I photographed my first wedding in Phuket, that I really took it seriously. I fell in love with wedding photography overnight!

The cost of a destination wedding in Thailand can vary widely depending on your guest count, venue, and vendors. On average, a small to mid-size wedding can range from $5,000 to $35,000 USD ++. This includes the venue, catering, photographer, flowers, and basic coordination. Thailand is known for offering luxury wedding experiences at more affordable prices compared to Western countries. Check out a video I made here breaking down the costs of getting married in Thailand.

The best time for a wedding in Thailand is during the cool and dry season, which typically runs from November to April. This period offers the most comfortable weather with less rain, ideal for outdoor ceremonies and beach weddings. Keep in mind that December and January are popular months, so early booking is recommended.
