PRICING GUIDE 2024

Sam Nichols Photography

Hello, and congratulations on your engagement!

I’m so glad you reached out to me for your wedding photography, and I can’t wait to hear about the plans for your big day! Below, you can find my wedding photography pricing for 2024. All collections are customizable based on the details of your day. Prices for many of my preferred destinations within New Jersey and New York state include travel and lodging, such as The Roxbury Barn, Sterlingbrook Farm, and Hayfield Catskills, just to name a few. Let the journey begin!

ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS

Celebrating the right now

In addition to being great practice for wedding day portraits, an engagement shoot is a fantastic way to remember the feeling and season of life the way it is right now. It’s also an opportunity for us to get to know each other even better before the big day! For your engagement shoot location, think about exploring a spot that sets the backdrop for your own story, such as a rolling hill side, the downtown cobblestone streets, or a seaside town that you visit every year.
This time making pictures together is a ton of fun, and in the end you can expect to receive a gallery of around 50 finished images. Typically we’ll work together to choose a location that reflects your style, and lay out the rest of the day’s details from there.

Pricing for Engagement Shoots is all inclusive at $600

Your images will be available in a modern online gallery, and can be downloaded and printed in high resolution.

Engagement shoots are only available to my wedding clients. Travel is included within a 20 mile radius of Clinton, NJ. Please inquire for travel rates to far off destinations!

MEMORIES IN PRINT

There’s truly nothing like holding your own wedding album in your hands. Being able to grab it off of your bookshelf any time you (or family and friends!) want to relive that day is such a wonderful feeling. Below, you can find options for printing your images, whether that’s in a single book or as smaller treasures to hold onto!

Artisan Albums

These books are timeless. They will last for generations, and hold up to the test of time due to their thick board pages. Images are printed on photographic paper, then hand bound together by bookbinders in the pacific northwest. These albums come wrapped in a linen cover with a variety of finishes and colors. Your names (or wedding date, etc.) are hot-stamped on the cover.  Other sizes available upon request! Since there’s nothing quite like seeing an album in person, you can be sure you’ll see samples of this exact book when we meet!

10×10” Square
40 sides, 20 pages $1100
30 sides, 15 pages $950
20 sides, 10 pages (This album is included with the first collection!) $800

Infinite Print Sets

Your memories, in print. Remember the nights of gathering around the table holding pictures from summer vacations, family holidays, and birthdays in your hands? Keep the tradition alive with an Infinite Print Set. 75 Printed photographs are housed in an heirloom glass box, for display on your favorite shelf, or perfect for gifting to parents. Included is my time putting together a set of 75 images that tell the story of your day, or you’re welcome to choose these images yourself.

4″x6” Infinite Print Set
75 Images and Infinite Box $190
Duplicate sets, shipped together $170
Prices include prints, Infinite glass box, tax, and US shipping.
