In The Fable Cameraworks ✓ ACRA Verified

In The Fable Cameraworks prices its services as packages, which is standard for photography and videography in Singapore. Market norms for this subcategory: full-day wedding photography S$2,500–6,000+, full-day videography S$3,000–8,000+, and shorter-coverage packages for solemnisations, baby full-month shoots, or corporate events starting from around S$800–1,500. The mid-range pricing signal suggests rates sit within the mainstream band, though exact figures should be confirmed directly. When reviewing any quote, check what is itemised: number of shooters, hours of coverage, number of edited images or video length, file delivery format and timeline, travel charge for non-central venues, and GST. A deposit of 30–50% on signing is standard to secure the date, with the balance typically due one to two weeks before the event. See the full Photography & Videography cost guide for Singapore →

Lead time depends heavily on the event type. For weddings — particularly Saturday evenings — popular photographers and videographers book out 6–12 months ahead, with peak Saturdays in March, April, October, and November filling earliest. If your date falls in those windows, enquire as soon as the venue and approximate guest count are confirmed. For baby full-month or 100-day celebrations, 6–12 weeks is typically sufficient, though earlier is safer during festive periods when demand spikes. Corporate events and smaller milestone shoots can usually be arranged with 4–6 weeks' notice. Confirm whether the date is formally held only once a deposit is paid — most studios do not hold dates on verbal confirmation alone. Ask about a wet-weather or backup contingency if any portion of the shoot is planned outdoors, and clarify the rescheduling policy in writing before signing.

The industry standard in Singapore is a 30–50% non-refundable deposit on signing, which secures the date and typically covers initial planning time, pre-event consultation, and in some cases a pre-wedding or recce visit. The balance is usually due one to two weeks before the event day. Confirm these terms in writing before transferring any funds. Deposits are generally non-refundable but may be transferable to a rescheduled date — ask specifically about the rescheduling window and any surcharge for peak-date transfers. Also clarify the policy if a force-majeure circumstance (venue cancellation, illness, or a public-health restriction) requires a postponement, as this differs between studios. For setups at HDB void decks, condo function rooms, or hotel venues, some venues require the vendor to produce a public liability insurance certificate — confirm whether In The Fable Cameraworks holds this and can provide a copy on request if your venue requires it.
