About Substation Media
Substation Media is a photography and videography provider operating islandwide across Singapore, based at 45 Armenian St. The listing is KakiList-verified, meaning operating details and contact channels have been confirmed by a real person. With only one Google review at a rating of 2/5, there is insufficient public review data to draw conclusions about service quality — prospective clients should conduct their own due diligence before booking.
Engaging a photography or videography provider typically begins with confirming your event date and venue, then discussing scope and headcount with the team. For weddings, lead times of six to twelve months are standard for popular dates, particularly Saturday evenings in March, April, October, and November. For corporate events, birthday parties, or baby celebrations, six to twelve weeks is a more typical booking window. It is worth clarifying upfront whether the quoted package covers hours of coverage, number of edited images or video deliverables, turnaround timeline, travel charges for non-central venues, and whether a deposit is required on signing — the Singapore industry standard is thirty to fifty per cent, with the balance due one to two weeks before the event.
To get started, reach out to Substation Media via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form with your event date, venue, and a brief description of the scope, then request a written package breakdown before committing to any deposit.
Lock in the date with a written contract and deposit, confirm the public liability insurance and any HDB / condo / hotel venue paperwork, and put the deliverables, balance schedule, and rescheduling policy in writing.

Substation Media lists its pricing at the mid-range tier ($$), but specific package rates are not publicly detailed. As a reference point, photography and videography packages in Singapore typically run S$2,500–6,000 for full-day wedding photography, S$3,000–8,000 for full-day wedding videography, and S$500–2,500 for shorter corporate or lifestyle shoots.

Lead time depends heavily on the event type. For weddings, six to twelve months ahead is the norm for popular photographers and videographers — Saturday evenings in March, April, October, and November fill earliest. For corporate events, birthday parties, and baby celebrations, six to twelve weeks is generally sufficient, though in-demand providers can fill up faster during the year-end festive period. Confirm whether your preferred date is available before paying any deposit, and ask about the wet-weather or contingency plan if any portion of the shoot is outdoors. A written contract securing the date is essential — verbal agreements offer no recourse if a conflict arises.
The Singapore industry standard for event photography and videography is a deposit of thirty to fifty per cent on signing, with the balance due one to two weeks before the event. The deposit typically covers the date hold and any pre-event planning or consultation hours — it is usually non-refundable but may be transferable to a rescheduled date. Confirm in writing what triggers a forfeiture of the deposit, the rescheduling terms if a public-health restriction or unforeseen circumstance forces a date change, and whether public liability insurance is held — this is particularly relevant for shoots at HDB void decks, condo function rooms, or hotel venues that may require a copy of the certificate. Lock in the date with a written contract and deposit, confirm the public liability insurance and any venue paperwork, and put the deliverables, balance schedule, and rescheduling policy in writing.
