Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

  • We really aren't good in front of the camera...

    I feel your pain. Really I do. I'm terrible the other side of the lens. But, pretty much every couple you see on this site have voiced the same concern. I reckon we did ok. It's my job to help you and give you the direction that can help you nail it (which you will).

  • How do we book you?

    I work on a first-come, first-served basis. To reserve your wedding date, I just need a deposit of £200 and a signed contract.

  • How many photos do we get for our wedding? Is there anything else included?

    I usually end up at around 500-800 for a final wedding edit but there are no hard limits on numbers. If I have a second photographer then there will be more and some recent weddings with two us of have been in the region of 1000-1300. However many it is that make the final edit, you get high resolution images via digital download with no watermarks or passwords.

    Your photos, with an unlimited personal use licence for print and copy, and for you to use on social media and the like.

    They’re also uploaded to a password-protected online gallery for you, and you can then share this with friends and family

  • Do you have backup kit and insurance?

    Absolutely. I shoot with Sony A9 and A7 IV cameras (and they're totally silent which vicars and registrars really love). I back-up to two cards in-camera and keep copies of each wedding locally and remotely. I'm fully insured for professional indemnity and public liability.

  • Can you provide a second photographer?

    My approach is based on being as low-key as possible. However I can provide an excellent second photographer for larger weddings or for those couples who really want that. My wife Lisa is often mentioned in the reviews and accompanies me to many weddings as many couple choose the packages that include two of us

  • What will you wear?

    I hear some horror stories about what wedding photographers can turn up in. I wear smart chinos, quiet shoes and generally a short, waistcoat and tie. Yes I know it might seem bit old fashioned but It's comfortable enough for me to work hard in, but smart enough that I'll fit in at a wedding.

  • Do you shoot family formals?

    Most definitely. I shoot a few formal groups at pretty much every wedding (unless the couple don't want any). I don't put them on my site because I'm booked for my documentary coverage and portraiture.

  • Can we meet before the wedding?

    Yes certainly! If logistics/distance work we can meet up for a coffee. If not we can have a chat via WhatsApp video and do it that way.
