Labor costs
Labor costs are involved after the Long Island wedding photographer is done with your event and this is in regards to the hours spent editing the images, not forgetting the hours they spent at your nuptials. Editing requires a full 3-4 days for the purposes of getting a wide array of perfect photographs by which to remember your day.

Equipment
The type of equipment that the wedding photographer uses are actually not your typical ones and this is because the high-end lenses and bodies basically average about 1500 pounds each! Since the photographer has to always be prepared, backup equipment has to always be carried in case the primary equipment fails, which goes on to add to the cost.

Repairs
Sometimes the equipment malfunctions and when this happens, they are not just taken to any repair shop for repairing and this is because of their sensitivity.

Insurance
Because of the cost that goes into buying the high-tech equipment, insurance has to be factored in just in case someone from the wedding decides to spill champagne over the equipment for the fun of it.

Yearly costs
A professional wedding photographer knows that some particular gear needs updating every year so as to produce perfect images. Cleaning costs and professional subscriptions go on to add to the costs and this is not forgetting the monthly ones.
