Our weddings packages have a number of options so you can add or remove anything you want (or don't want). Our full day packages are pretty comprehensive as is but always happy to provide something bespoke if required.

Wedding Photography (and our Luxury Videography) can fill up up to two years in advance. However, don't let that dampen your spirits. We can occasionally provide services at very short notice (even down to days) so please contact us to check. For all other services, please contact us to discuss your needs.

I only attend one wedding per booking day. I also restrict the amount of bookings I take on each year to provide dedicated service.

Yes. We cover most England & Wales locations at no extra charge. Coastal locations, those at extremes of country, Scotland and International are charged at cost.

Please contact us for a quote but as a guide, most central counties are free. The closer to the coast you are, the more likely it is there will be a charge (no more than £100 for all England and Wales addresses). For weddings a little further out (Scotland, Ireland and International) we charge at cost plus a nominal amount for travel time/accommodation.

I like to shoot mainly in a candid style so hopefully you will feel the most relaxed. We'll do some formal photography too, but again still keeping it light and breezy so it becomes fun and not a chore.

For Photography I use a mix of DSLR and Mirrorless Cameras. Editing is done with the latest versions of Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop and Capture ONE for truly outstanding Post-Production. For Video, I use mirrorless cameras designed for their small size yet exceptionally high quality footage. I also use discreet microphones for excellent sound (something neglected by many videographers). I purposely keep the camera light so I can move around quickly and blend in rather than sticking out like a sore thumb. For the video editing, I use the latest versions of Adobe Premiere, Adobe Encore, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Audition & Adobe Photoshop to create the final film.

I think our laid back, relaxed approach has served us very well over the years. We have attention for detail but don't want to dominate your day by dragging you all over the place. I think we find the right balance between getting the shots but also just letting you get on with the day.

We use a mix of high quality, large megapixel DSLR technology and mirrorless cameras, with great quality lenses. I always have a back up camera on me just in case!

We send approx 400-500 fully edited photos. We take many more than this but these are typically duplicates or duds (usually people blinking at wrong time!).

Our Standard Photography is a single-shooter package although a second photographer can be added (subject to availability). For our dual photo-video packages, it is a team of two with myself taking the Photography and a team member providing the video.

I have a networks of contacts in the event of an emergency preventing me from attending a wedding. It would have to be pretty serious though - I broke my ribs at a wedding and I STILL carried on working for the next 8-hours.

We ask clients allow us to use their photography for any publicity we require. You can opt out of this before the wedding by just dropping us an email. For clients own use, they have full copyright clearance to use photos however they wish. They have no obligation to order prints from us.

Per event up to a set time allowance, then an hourly rate after that.

Yes of course.

Ideally overtime should be pre-booked in advance based on your wedding schedule. Should things run behind on the day (and your package has expired) we'll ask you whether you want us to stay or leave. Overtime can be paid on the day in cash or charged afterwards.

Credit/Debit card, PayPal, Bank Transfer We can also accept cash for Portrait Photography and other short bookings.

Fast, friendly, candidly.
