WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY DUBAI

How much does wedding photography cost in Dubai?

Wedding photography in Dubai costs between AED 1,500 and AED 25,000+ depending on crew size, hours, and deliverables. Backyard Studio Official's wedding packages start at AED 1,799 for our affordable Essential photography package, AED 3,500 for half-day photo + video coverage, and AED 8,500 for our most popular full-day Gold package with 2 photographers, 2 videographers, GCAA-licensed drone, and 48-hour delivery.

Do you offer a cheap or affordable wedding photoshoot in Dubai?

Yes — our Essential package at AED 1,799 is built for budget-conscious couples: a professional photographer for 3 hours, 100+ edited high-resolution photos, an online gallery, and 48-hour delivery. The same photographers who shoot our premium weddings cover Essential bookings, so affordable never means amateur. Videography can be added from AED 1,200.

What is included in a wedding photoshoot package in Dubai?

Every Backyard Studio wedding package includes both photography and videography, edited high-resolution photos, a cinematic highlight video, an online delivery gallery, and 48-hour delivery. Gold and Platinum packages add aerial drone footage (we are GCAA licensed), a same-day teaser for social media, and a pre-wedding consultation. We never charge travel fees within the UAE.

Why choose Backyard Studio over a cheap wedding photographer in Dubai?

Budget photographers in Dubai (AED 1,500–2,500) typically send one shooter with no backup gear, no drone licence, and 2–4 week delivery. Backyard Studio Official has delivered 2,400+ productions; our wedding crews shoot on cinema cameras with backup bodies, our drone pilots are GCAA licensed, and we contractually guarantee 48-hour delivery with a same-day teaser. One wedding cannot be re-shot — founders Fahad Iqbal Butt and Syed Mazhar Zaidi built our packages so nothing is left to chance.

Do you photograph Emirati, Arabic, Indian, and Western weddings?

Yes. We have photographed Emirati weddings with female-photographer crews for bridal halls, Arabic and Khaleeji weddings, multi-day Indian and Pakistani weddings (mehndi, baraat, walima), Filipino weddings, and Western destination weddings. Our team is multicultural and we plan coverage around each tradition's key moments.

Do you cover weddings outside Dubai — Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, RAK?

Yes. Backyard Studio Official covers weddings in all 7 UAE emirates — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain — with no travel fees within the UAE. We regularly shoot at Emirates Palace and Saadiyat venues in Abu Dhabi and beach resorts in RAK and Fujairah.

How fast do we receive our wedding photos?

You receive a same-day teaser (Gold and Platinum packages) for Instagram within hours of the event, and your complete edited gallery and highlight film within 48 hours. Most Dubai studios take 2–6 weeks; 48-hour delivery is our standard, contractually guaranteed.

Can we book a pre-wedding shoot with our wedding package?

Yes. A pre-wedding photoshoot is included free in the Platinum package and can be added to Silver or Gold from AED 1,500. Popular locations include the Burj Khalifa viewpoints, Madinat Jumeirah, the desert at golden hour, and JBR beach. See our dedicated pre-wedding shoot service for details.
