I’m based in Herefordshire, U.K but I’m available for weddings all over the world. Travel expenses are included in the U.K but I do charge flat rate fees for weddings in Europe or the Rest of the World. See my Prices for more details
The package I provide means I’ll be taking photos all day long to capture the full story of your wedding – from the bride/groom preparations right up until the first dance. If theres a good party vibe I often stay on into the night and I’ve rarely gone home earlier than 10pm.
Whilst my style lends itself to unposed photography, I’m still happy to do around 8-12 traditional groups, this will take between 20 – 30 minutes depending on group size. Depending on location and the weather, it’s usually best to do these straight after the ceremony (before anybody gets a chance to get to the bar!) Your ushers/best man/maid of honour can be very helpful at this stage by gathering the people you want. I won’t make you have these kind of group photos if you don’t want to.
This is a common and valid question but I always tell my couples this is dependant on what happens on the day but I aim to give all my wedding clients between 500-600 photos. If you have a lot going on in your day such as entertainment, games and interesting things or events then theres likely to be more photos.
All of your images will be online in your gallery as well as on the USB within 4-6 weeks.
Yes, I fully encourage you to do so. You can print images from the usb for personal use, the only limitation is that the images cannot be used for commercial purposes. If you would like to purchase prints from me, you or your guests can order from your personal password protected gallery in various sizes and finishing options.
Of course. From the online gallery, they can order digital downloads, prints and various wall art products.
Get in touch. If you live locally we can meet up in Hereford but 95% of my weddings are all over the U.K so a video chat over Facetime/Whatsapp/Skype is perfect. You can either lock in the day and we can meet a little closer to your big day or we can meet before you decide to book.
Yes! It’s a great alternative if you live miles away!
To secure your date I require a booking fee along with a completed contract. The remaining balance is payable no later than 8 weeks prior to your wedding date.
First of all I’ll back up all your images across various formats making several copies to ensure your photos are safe. I’ll then set about organising, cropping, editing, colour correcting and converting all your images. After about 4-6 weeks, I will give you an online gallery link and then you will recieve your usb copy in the post a week or so later
My main cameras are Nikon bodies, and I use a variety of prime lenses. For personal film photography I use a Pentax LX and Yashica Electro 35gx camera.
Yes, I’m fully insured for public liability and professional indemnity as well as having all my equipment insured.
