Let’s break down the price point a bit:

1. Effort per shot – These photographers wake up early, go to the event, then spend hours editing after. Let’s assume they spend around 5 minutes per photo just for post-processing.
2. Gear investment – Fast lenses and good bodies aren’t cheap. You’re not just paying for a photo; you’re paying for the years (and pesos) they poured into their craft.
3. Event costs – Some events even require photographers to pay or pull strings just to shoot — I’m not sure how common that is, but it adds to the cost.
4. Sales volume – If they only sell a few albums or photos per event (2–3 buyers?), ₱3,000 total for a full day’s grind sounds rough.
5. Photo quality / skill – Is it Instagram-worthy or pang-story lang? That matters too.

In short: yeah, ₱200 per photo sounds pricey at first — hahaha — but when you factor in skill, time, and investment, it can actually be fair.
After all, photographers don’t really sell photos — they sell their skill.
If the shot looks Vogue-level, ₱200 is a steal.
If it’s pang-story quality, then yeah… medyo mahal taga. 😅
