What Affects Wedding Photography Cost in Nepal?

Coverage Duration

Nepali weddings often span multiple days including pre-wedding events, the main ceremony, and reception. Longer coverage means more memories captured but higher costs.

  • Multi-day: NPR 80,000-200,000+

  • 2-person team: Standard
  • 4+ person crew: Premium coverage

What you receive after the wedding affects pricing. Digital files, printed albums, highlight videos, and drone footage all add to the final cost.

  • Album included: +NPR 15,000-30,000
  • Cinematic video: +NPR 25,000-50,000
