I think she expects a tip ugh even though I think her prices are high enough, </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585765 Fri, 22 Feb 2013 00:45:16 +0000 lemondrop 585765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, but mine is a good friend and didn't charge me. I know how much work she puts into editing, so I left a $50 tip with her husband. I also bought prints off of her to help too. </p> <p>Even if she had charged me, I still would have given a smaller tip- we tipped our wedding photographer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585694 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 23:28:30 +0000 sunny 585694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with @Mrs. Superhero: ! I don't tip because they have already set their own prices... not because of the amount they are charging. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585693 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 23:23:41 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 585693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agreed, I don't tip because they are the business owner and set the prices. If I was really happy maybe some flowers would be sweet? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585597 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 22:29:39 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 585597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've only had professional photos taken once. I don't think we tipped the photographer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585567 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 22:22:55 +0000 shellio 585567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second @ms.janedoe: I said "other" for the exact same reason. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585559 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 22:20:46 +0000 Turd Ferguson 585559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said other, mainly based off of the "if they're the owners of their own business, they don't get tipped" logic. If they worked for a bigger company, then yeah, I probably would. I guess if you knew they were cuttin' you an awesome deal or something, I wouldn't be opposed to it...hmm, I suck at answering this question. Sorry. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585442 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:48:50 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 585442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no i wouldn't </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585425 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:45:53 +0000 autumnlove 585425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't tip ours! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585419 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:44:55 +0000 Mrs. Pen 585419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I have no idea if she is or not hahaha. because I know her personally :) But I didn't ask for a discount. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585409 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:42:41 +0000 mrs. bird 585409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>photographers do great work and most charge accordingly, i wouldn't worry about a tip unless they were doing it as a favor and not charging their normal amount. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585365 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:37:07 +0000 MrsRcCar 585365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a photographer. We make prices with everything in mind. I wouldn't accept a tip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585357 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:36:04 +0000 Bao 585357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think if she does a great job, and you think it's worth it then go ahead! Wait and see how the day plays out and go from there :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-photographers#post-585343 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:34:57 +0000 Mrs. Pen 585343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like the photographer we booked is worth more than what we're paying. I really value photos and her work is absolutely amazing! </p> <p>would it be weird to tip her an extra $25 or so? </p>
