We chose Craige to be our photographer for our wedding after he was recommended to us. Craige listened to what we wanted to get out of the day with the more traditional style photographs. However captured the ‘in the moment’ style we also wanted. He took pictures of moments we may have missed if it wasn’t for Craige......From me (the Bride) getting ready, to James and his son together and then the sunset photos. They were all amazing. Craige understood who we were as a couple (engaging in a pre-shoot with us) to what best aspects of our venue he could use for great photographs. Craige was respectful of the fact this was our special day but made sure no one was missed out on being involved. Then to be able to view some of our initial special ‘snaps’ part way through our day was an added bonus! Craige you were fantastic! Thank you x

Free Engagement Photography
Hi,
I have a great offer for you! I will do a free engagement shoot even if you don't book with me. Just for making an enquiry with myself and I am available on your wedding day, I will do a photoshoot with you free of charge. Yes, a free photoshoot in a mutually acceptable location to us both. I am hoping that meeting me and the quality of the pictures will make you want to book me, but it will be without obligation and totally free.
I will put on a website so you can download the images and share them with friends and family or put on your website. I will even do free prints for you if you ask nicely.
