Elaine Mayson Photography

Prices range from £495 to £1,200

I offer a full consultation at the wedding venue. All the photographs taken on the day are edited and some are changed into black and white, sepia and special edits. All the edited photographs are put onto Elaine Mayson wedding Gallery. They are low files so that they can be viewed quickly. Family and friends can view the photos and buy on line if they wish. The bridal couple receive full quality jpg files 600 and more on the large packages. These photo files are not marked and can be used as the couple wish. Contracts are issued to safeguard the photographer and the bridal couple. Beautiful quality photobooks are available to purchase. Elaine designs the books with photographs the couples choose. They are all presented boxed with tissue paper.

A consultation at the venue to ensure all the plans and timings are confirmed. Elaine offers ideas for photos but also listens and writes down any requirements of the bride and groom. Photographs taken on the wedding day by Elaine Mayson Photography. All the large packages include an assistant to help with the running of the day and to take some photographs. Two weeks after the wedding the couple receive a USB stick of all the edited wedding photographs. Also all the photos are put on Elaine Mayson Wedding Gallery where family and friends can view the photos and buy on line if they wish.

As soon as you have your venue booked it is a good idea to give me a ring and see if I am available for your wedding date.

No your wedding is bespoke to Elaine Mayson Photography

Yes I love to travel and am happy to travel in this country and abroad.

You would need to contact me concerning weddings abroad as I give good discounts but this will also relate to the price of the air fare to the destination and accommodation. This is usually cheap and easy to arrange. I charge petrol costs at 40p a mile outside of a 25 mile radius of my office. Therefore there is no travel costs for local and within the M25 weddings.

I take a mixture of candid photos, formal and fun shots.

Yes I have a distinctive style as my previous career was 15 years as a classical ballerina on the stage. Therefore I love to catch the moment but I am also very experienced at directing and getting a very relaxed but romantic look to my photography.

I use 2 x canon professional cameras and also two canon flashes plus many lens. I also have studio lights, backdrops and stands if required for winter weddings

Yes I have a Wedding Gallery

Two weeks or when the couple are back from their honeymoon if they are away longer than 2 weeks.

No all my wedding photographs are edited and some photos are changed into black and white, sepia and my own edits though I always keep the original colour photograph. I edit in Lightroom and also in Adobe photoshop.

I have a team though I will be photographing your wedding with the help of a photography assistant

I issue a contract with my weddings and in this there is a clause that allows me to use the bridal couples wedding photographs for promotional use to help my business only.

In weddings I charge per hour. Some Events I do charge a set fee.

Yes I would, as on the wedding day my photography services are bespoke to their wedding day.

I charge per hour for weddings

I like payment made by BACS straight into my business photography account

I like a relaxed atmosphere. The more fun the bridal couple are having the better the photos and everybody is happy. I think that the couple should have a ball. I love to capture the love, tenderness and sheer romance of the day as well as lots of fun and laughter.
