Let's Go!

When it comes to planning your Auckland wedding, one of the biggest decisions you’ll make is who captures your day. Most couples know they need a photographer, but what about a videographer too? Do you need both? Is it worth the extra cost? And where do you even find someone who does both?

Let’s talk about whether hiring a wedding photographer and videographer in Auckland is right for you — and how to find the perfect team to make your wedding memories last forever.

The Difference Between Wedding Photography and Videography

Wedding photography captures beautiful still moments — that epic first kiss, the tear in your partner’s eye, the wild dance floor moves. But wedding videography brings the whole day back to life. You’ll hear the vows, feel the music, and relive the emotion all over again.

Photos freeze time. Videos replay it. Together, they tell your full love story.

Why Hire a Photographer and Videographer Team?

1. Seamless Coverage

When your photographer and videographer work as a team (or are the same person or studio), everything flows better. They know each other’s shooting styles, don’t get in each other’s way, and work together to capture every angle of your day without missing a beat.

2. Consistent Style

Hiring a photo and video team from the same studio means your wedding album and highlight reel will have the same look and feel. That makes everything more cohesive, from your social media sneak peek to your keepsake wedding film.

3. Less Admin Stress

Dealing with one team means one contract, one point of contact, and one less thing to juggle during planning. Easy.

How Much Does a Wedding Photographer and Videographer Cost in Auckland?

For both photo and video packages in Auckland, couples typically spend between $4,000 and $8,000 depending on coverage and experience.

Here’s a rough breakdown:

Package Type	Price Range	What You Might Get
Basic Combo	$3,000 – $4,500	6–8 hours photo & video, edited gallery + highlight video
Mid-range Combo	$5,000 – $6,500	Full day coverage, second shooter, ceremony + speeches recorded
Premium Combo	$7,000 – $10,000+	Multi-day coverage, drone footage, full film, luxury album

Prices will vary depending on your date, location, and what’s included.

What to Look For in a Photo + Video Team

✔️ Portfolio You Love

Check out full galleries and video highlights. Do their photos tell a story? Do their videos make you feel something? That’s what you’re paying for.

✔️ Experience with Auckland Venues

Local teams know the lighting, best photo spots, and how to roll with the unpredictable Auckland weather.

✔️ Good Vibes

This team will be with you all day — during your most emotional, silly, and intimate moments. You want someone who feels like a friend, not a stranger with a camera.

Can One Person Do Both Photography and Videography?

Some solo creatives offer both, but unless you’re having a small or elopement-style wedding, it’s usually best to hire a team or studio with a dedicated photographer and videographer. It’s hard to be in two places at once — and you want full coverage of your day.

Final Thoughts

Hiring a wedding photographer and videographer in Auckland is one of the best ways to make sure every moment of your big day is remembered — not just how it looked, but how it felt.

If you want timeless photos and a cinematic video to relive your wedding for years to come, a photo and video team might be the perfect fit.
