Common questions

How much does an event photographer cost in Dubai?

With Servia, a professional event photographer for up to 3 hours costs AED 700 including VAT. Weddings, full-day events and multi-photographer coverage are quoted as a custom package before you book.

What is included in the AED 700 event photographer booking?

A professional photographer with camera and lighting kit for up to 3 hours at your venue in Dubai, Sharjah or Ajman, a planning call to agree the shot list, and professionally edited photos delivered digitally. The delivery date is confirmed with your booking.

Can I get photos and video from the same event?

Yes. Book a videographer (from AED 300 for a Single Reel Shoot) and add 30 edited photos from the same shoot for AED 250, or book a dedicated event photographer for AED 700 alongside the videographer.

Do you photograph weddings, engagements and nikah ceremonies?

Yes, as a custom package. Share the date, venue, run-sheet, coverage hours and whether there is a women-only section, and Servia confirms the photographer team and a fixed price before you book.

Can I book a birthday party photographer at home?

Yes. Home, villa, garden and venue parties across Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman are covered. Up to 3 hours costs AED 700, which suits most children's parties and family celebrations.

Do you cover corporate events and conferences?

Yes: conferences, product launches, team events and National Day celebrations. Up to 3 hours is AED 700; longer events and multi-camera coverage are quoted as a custom package.

Can I request a female photographer?

Yes, on request and subject to availability. This is recommended for women-only events and some family sessions.

Will my photos be posted online?

No, not without your written consent. UAE law restricts capturing and publishing images of people without consent, so client photos are private by default, especially of children and at women-only events.

Do I need a permit for a photoshoot in Dubai?

Commercial shoots in public places need a permit through the Dubai Film & TV Commission. Private venues such as malls, hotels and beach clubs set their own rules and some charge a fee. We check this for your location before confirming.

Can you take drone photos at my event?

Only where permitted. Commercial drone work needs GCAA registration, a DCAA no-objection certificate in Dubai and location permits, which usually take 7 to 10 business days. Drone shots are booked through the videography drone add-on once permits are confirmed.

How far in advance should I book a photographer?

Book small parties at least 48 hours ahead, corporate events about a week ahead, and weddings several weeks ahead. Weekends and the October to April season fill up first.

Which areas do you cover?

Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman as standard, with no travel fee within these emirates. Other emirates are available on request.
