I see you live in Michigan, What is your travel fee?
As a photographer, I am based in a certain location and I do charge a travel fee for weddings outside of my area. This fee covers the additional expenses involved in traveling to and from the wedding location, such as transportation, accommodation, and meals. The exact amount of the travel fee depends on the distance and location of your wedding & I will discuss the travel fee with you upfront during our initial consultation and include it in the quote so that there are no surprises or hidden costs later on. My goal is to provide you with the best possible photography experience, and part of that is being transparent and upfront about all costs associated with my services. We also travel internationally and will be happy to discuss a customized quote for you upon request.
