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!
would it be weird to tip her an extra $25 or so?

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

I am a photographer. We make prices with everything in mind. I wouldn't accept a tip.

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.

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.

I've only had professional photos taken once. I don't think we tipped the photographer.

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?

Agree with @Mrs. Superhero: ! I don't tip because they have already set their own prices... not because of the amount they are charging.

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.
Even if she had charged me, I still would have given a smaller tip- we tipped our wedding photographer.

I voted other because I hired a photographer for the first time and I haven't used her yet. I think she expects a tip ugh even though I think her prices are high enough,
