    Local wedding planning sites might be your best bet for this kind of information. Expats don't tend to do this Hong Kong form of wedding photography.

    However, here is one place in Macau with prices.

    why would anyone take their wedding photos in a place that they are not connected too?
    why would you have wedding photos if you are not having a wedding?

    prices in Macau can be 5K or 30K it all depends.
    You should take a day trip there and see for yourself, it is rather small so easy to tour within a few hours. A lot are concentrated near by the Lou Lim Ieoc Garden / Tap Siac area.

    why don't you go to a wedding expo and see the difference in style/quality ( for each company and country, according to the females, frances and mona lisa produce the most stylish and sophisticated photos, but also the most expensive, expect HK$20 ish) for yourself as well as your partner, determine whether which is suited for you and your budget, according to female friends and my wife, taiwanese pre-martial photos company emphasise on their natural flora/flauna which is more common in tw, shenzhen/china is a bit dated ( circa early 90' late 80's in style and photographic techniques but it's cheap)

    I believe also places such as japan and korea are becoming popular as well.

    pls note everyone, pre-martial photos is common practice in HK and Asia (but the actual wedding photos is also standard practice in hk as well).

    also beware of hidden cost such as frames and deluxe albums, it can bump up the price significantly, more important additional photos is at a premium (HK$100 to HK$180 each) thus cheap package may be more expenisive if you decide that you want more photographs, (most local females expect the region of 45 to 80 photographs), thus cheapest package may turn out to be less value than an more expensive package.

    just like the hsbc ad (in uk a few years ago) each culture has different customs, ie, in malta, each guest expects a present from the couple...

    sorry, correction - frances and mona lisa are hk based companies, in fact sister companies.

    yes, hk is bit of missmash of cultures, a few decades ago, western white wedding dresses and cakes were not standard practice (still not popular in mainland at this current moment), even white weddings in hk churches are becoming popular, however, regardless of the amalgamation of cultures, the traditional chinese customs such as couple pouring tea to the parents, dowry given to bride's family, rather lavish wedding banquet as well as the guest giving out red packets (as opposed to gifts, however, this is stating to change) to the couple is standard practice hk as well

    Well...thanks for all incoming information, there are helpful and it makes me more know abt preparation of pre wedding and be careful dealing with those wedding agency. However, i prefer classic style, natural or some sort of historical background, which i have no idea where should take as someone said...Taiwan only FLORA & FAUNA....and seems no suitable for me.
    Anyway...Many thanks for All your sharing here.
