CPLavery Photography offers services and packages to suit a variety of needs and budget requirements. The most comprehensive package includes a full day of coverage from preparations right up until the end of the night. This package also offers up to 1000 images, a personalised USB, an online gallery, an album, and wall art. This business can provide the services of a second photographer to ensure that no detail is missed and is also willing to travel to destination weddings.
When planning your dream wedding you envisage exactly that coming out in your final wedding photos. Thats why when choosing your wedding photographer it can be very nerve wracking as it is a very big decision to make.
We came across Colin Lavery through some work my now husband had done with him a few years back. After checking out his online portfolio it wasn’t hard to make a decision that he was the person we wanted to capture our wedding day.
Hiring Colin was by far, the best decision we made. It was so refreshing to meet someone not only passionate about their job but his enthusiasm was infectious. We really enjoyed our experience with Colin and found him to be in complete control in capturing every special moment we had during the day. He did the most amazing job with our photos and really listened to what we where looking for. I preferred colour where as my partner liked the black and white style. Colin was able to provide us with both and tick all other boxes of our expectations.
Colin has a warm and friendly character and was able to provide us with some much needed reassurance, especially during the run up to the wedding. We are so grateful that he has managed to capture are magical day not only in photo form but will last a life time in our hearts too. We would defiantly recommend him.
Thank you Colin

Made us great memories
Colin did an amazing job for our wedding. He knows his stuff. He was a very good communicator and made it very clear about how he works and what he needs from us and constantly asked us what we wanted. On top of this he was so encouraging and calm and kept in step with us as we figured out a Covid wedding.
On the day he was fantastic, organised, on time and very discreet. Managed to get some great shots of everything without us feeling like he was in our faces. He definitely went an extra mile on a few of the shots just trying to capture some of the scenes we wanted (climbed into the odd bush just to get a shot we really wanted and had an umbrella for us in case the weather turned).
He turned round the pictures in a month and they came out really well. He knows how to work a scene and handle so many variations in lighting. He sent us the pictures via a very nice website too - very easy to use and share. All in all we are delighted that we used him and have no complaints about his pricing structure. Worth it.
No extra charge for weddings in London and Kent. Outside of these there is a simple travel charge to cover petrol or tickets
