Photographers who cross Brabant wallon

20 photo and video studios cover the province, 5 are based there, the others travel in.

20 approved studios 7 criteria 18 cities

Of the 20 studios covering Brabant wallon, only 5 have their address there: the other 15 come from Hainaut, from Namur or from Brussels. That is normal for this trade, a photographer travels, and the province is quick to cross from one end to the other anyway. What it really changes is the question of travel costs and of knowing the venue. A studio that has already worked in a square courtyard farm knows where the light falls in the yard in late afternoon, and that is often worth more than a nearby address.

Photo, video, or both?

13 studios offer the drone and 10 shoot video, but not all of them do both with the same team.

Or by province

5 are based in Brabant wallon, 15 come from a neighbouring province. In this trade, travelling is normal.

How to choose your photographer in Brabant wallon

  1. 1Ask if they already know the venueFarm courtyards and orangeries in the province have very different light. If the studio has never worked there, suggest a scouting visit, many do it at no extra cost.
  2. 2The drone is not a given13 studios out of 20 offer it, but permission depends on the venue, the neighbours and the airspace. Ask both the photographer and the venue before picturing shots from above.
  3. 3Duo or solo, decide early11 studios work as a duo. With two of them, both sides of the preparations are covered at the same time, which counts if each of you gets ready in a different town.
  4. 4Ask for travel costs in writingMost studios come from another province. Have them state whether travel is included, from what distance it is charged, and what happens if the party ends late.
  5. 5The engagement shoot works as a rehearsal9 studios offer one. It is the only moment when you will know, before the big day, how it feels as a couple in front of a lens.

The five questions to ask before booking

  • Have you photographed at our venue before, and if not can we scout it together?
  • Will you be on your own or as a duo, and who exactly comes on the wedding day?
  • Is the travel to Walloon Brabant included in the price?
  • How many photos do we get, how soon, and in what form?
  • What happens if you fall ill the day before, do you have a stand-in?

What it costs

Count between 1 500 € and 3 500 € for a day of photo coverage. A photo and video package with drone and editing often goes beyond 5 000 €.

What's moving right now

  • ·The short film, made to be watched on a phone, replaces the long edit no one ever rewatched.
  • ·Couples book full coverage, from getting ready to the end of the night, rather than an hourly package.
  • ·The drone mostly sets the scene at the start of the film, not the party itself.
  • ·The engagement shoot is more and more often set in a place that matters to the couple, not in a neutral setting.

Frequently asked questions

How many photographers cover Walloon Brabant on wewed?

20 photo and video studios, of which 5 are based in the province and 15 come from elsewhere to work there. In detail, 16 do photography, 13 offer the drone, 11 work as a pair, 10 shoot video and 8 provide full-day coverage.

Is a photographer from outside the province a problem?

No, it is the rule rather than the exception in this trade. The only thing to check is how travel is charged and whether the studio agrees to come and scout the venue beforehand.

Book the photographer before or after the venue?

Afterwards. The date and the venue determine the light, the timings and the number of hours needed. A photographer can only quote properly once those three things are known.
