So, if that sounds good to you, and your drawn to a more relaxed and authentic style of wedding photography - please contact me today to check my availability for your big day!
Wedding Photography Packages
I provide three wedding photography packages as a base, with coverage tailored to your vision - from the morning preparations, to the big “I do”, right through to you first dance, and beyond! Every package includes the same care, experience and attention to detail - the only difference is how much of your day you’d like documented.
All wedding packages include the following:
- Phased invoicing, with convenient online payment options
-
Pre wedding consultation video call, to go through all of the details of your big day
-
My relaxed, documentary-style approach
-
No set limit on the number of professionally edited photos you’ll receive
-
Private online gallery, to view your photographs and order prints etc
-
Digital download link to your edited full resolution photographs
Silver Package
-
Half-day coverage (5 hours) - e.g. from your Wedding ceremony to the wedding breakfast and speeches
-
Focussed coverage designed for shorter weddings, or for couples who only want the key moments documented, without full-day coverage.
Gold Package (Most Popular)
-
Full-day coverage (10 hours) - e.g. from morning bride and/or groom preparations, to your evening reception / after party and shortly after your first dance
-
Complete coverage documenting all of the big moments and quieter in-between moments throughout the day
Platinum Package
-
Extended full-day coverage (12 hours) - e.g. from morning bride and/or groom preparations, to the your evening reception and dance floor action

Provides the most comprehensive coverage for couples where complete photographic coverage is a priority. Also perfect for weddings that start earlier and/or finish later.
Affordable wedding photography for smaller celebrations
I also offer a reduced 2-hour coverage option within 30 miles of Burton Upon Trent (DE15) - perfect for ceremony-only coverage, smaller registration office ceremonies and/or budget-conscious couples who still want high quality wedding photographs, in a natural documentary style.
You get all of the same quality, experience and care as my full wedding photography packages, but in a more compact and focussed package, perfectly tailored for more intimate celebrations.

Exceptional from Start to Finish
One thing that really impressed us was how effortlessly he organised everyone for the group photos. Anyone who's been to a wedding knows how difficult it can be to gather large groups of people, but Grant did it with confidence, efficiency and good humour, keeping everything running smoothly while making everyone feel relaxed.
Throughout the day he seemed to be everywhere at once, quietly capturing all the natural moments while also making sure we got every important shot we wanted. His dedication and commitment were obvious from beginning to end.
Now that my wife and I have seen the finished photos, we can honestly say they're absolutely fantastic. He has captured the atmosphere, emotion and joy of the day perfectly, giving us memories that we'll treasure for the rest of our lives.
We can't thank Grant enough for everything he did and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, hardworking and genuinely dedicated wedding photographer.
Grant is the best
Amazing photographer
Perfection
Absolutely recommend!
He listened to what we wanted and captured moments perfectly. He was very professional but also very easy to be around, and it didn’t feel as though there was any intrusion from having him there. The photos were exactly what I’d hoped for, and Grant also turned them round for us really quickly.
I would 100% recommend Grant and would use him again!

Meet the team
Hi, I’m Grant Archer - photographer, husband and proud cat-dad - based in Burton Upon Trent, Staffordshire (just outside Derby).
I’ve now spent more than 15 years behind the lens, and since 2018, I’ve professionally photographed everything from gorgeous weddings and fun-filled family days out, to corporate events and I’ve even worked behind the scenes on film sets.
For me, photography is all about story telling. Every couple, every family, every wedding all have their own personality, and I love capturing the details and human connection, that make each story unique.
No matter the environment, my goal is simple - to observe and document with authenticity, creating honest and emotive images that you’ll cherish for years to come!
