How much is it to have my photographer take a photo at the zoo. Such as a garden. I thought it used to be a $60 rights to photograph?
Christine says
Is it $200 just to have a photographer on the premise? When I had my wedding 2015 I just had to pay a fee for the photographer permit.
Noah Petermeier says
It is currently $200 for 30 minutes during the week and prorated based on our wedding prices on the weekend. We are not accepting posed photography in the Conservatory during our business hours at this time.

My fiancée and I wanna reserve a time slot for 30 minutes or so during a weekend, how much would that run?

As a photographer who regularly shoots proposals and Engagement sessions at Como Zoo, I absolutely recommend it! It’s a gorgeous and intimate space and you will get the most gorgeous photos!
