Pricing for an elopement in London varies more than people expect, and most of that variation comes down to a handful of factors rather than the photographer simply picking a number.
At LemonShark Studio, elopement bookings run from £900 for an elopement, from £1,400 for a small wedding. That figure reflects the time on the ground, the number of images retouched, and how quickly you need everything delivered. Rush turnaround, additional locations and larger teams all move the number, but the baseline is set deliberately so you know what you’re paying for before you ask.
The honest advice: ask any photographer you’re considering exactly what is included in their quoted price, not just the headline number. Cheap rarely means simple. A quote that excludes retouching, travel or a second shooter often ends up costing more once those are added back in.

FAQs
The short version follows.
What counts as an elopement or small wedding?
Anything from two people at a registry office to a wedding breakfast with twenty guests. If it is intimate by choice rather than by necessity, this is the coverage built for it.
How much coverage do we actually need?
Usually two to four hours is plenty for a small wedding, covering getting ready, the ceremony and a short portrait session afterwards.
