2025 wedding photography with MUA rates (PART 1)
I am a 2025 BTB and spent hours researching on wedding photography and contacted more than 20 vendors for quotes and details, especially MUA tie-ups. Most photography companies do not advertise their MUA tie-ups so you need to check with them individually. I have found that the photography and MUA packages tend to be more affordable and reliable options.
I have benefited so much from the wedding content here and hope that this list of rates can help to save some time for 2025 / 2026 brides. Part 2 can be found here :)
My research is based on 8/10/12 hour actual day photography. As my fiancé and I decided to do away with videography, I also looked for photographers who are able to do a same day photo montage video for the wedding dinner.

From my personal experience researching wedding photography and makeup artist (MUA) packages, I found that most vendors don’t readily advertise their MUA tie-ups, so it’s crucial to ask for specifics during consultations. Combining photography with MUA packages often results in more affordable and convenient options, which can significantly reduce wedding-day stress. When selecting a photographer, be sure to clarify package inclusions, like the number of edited photos, additional hour surcharges, early morning fees, and whether there is a second shooter. Some studios also offer thoughtful extras such as same-day photo montages for your dinner reception, which I personally valued as it sped up the sharing of memorable moments with guests. It’s also important to consider the responsiveness and professionalism of your photographer and MUA team. Vendors like CheekyFrames and Luvpersecond were very prompt in communication, and I appreciated their willingness to tailor packages, which helped me feel supported throughout the planning process. When budgeting, keep in mind additional costs such as morning surcharges and photo montage fees, but also look out for exclusive discounts or bundle deals by quoting wedding community names or referrals. For example, mentioning "SingaporeBrides" can yield discounts with some photographers. Ultimately, taking time to research thoroughly and compare vendor portfolios, rates, and MUA partnerships will enable you to find a package that fits your style, timeline, and budget perfectly. Don’t hesitate to read reviews and contact past clients if possible – hearing firsthand experiences is invaluable for peace of mind on your wedding day.
Thanks so much for this! Anyone has experience with Senica?
