When you book a photographer, you are paying for more than just the photos.
You are paying for their time, their experience, and their skills.
(Other expenses such as camera equipment prices, gas money, and event entrance costs are also the reason photographers are expensive)
Editing your photograph is a very important step because it completely changes the composition of your image and how it turns out in the end.
When editing photos, a lot is customizable, meaning you can opt-in for a specific style of photo.
