Frequently Asked Questions

6-8 weeks. During quiet periods I deliver sooner. You’ll get a sneak peek a day or two after the wedding.

I keep myself in good shape and I’m rarely ill, but if I am completely incapacitated I will contact another photographer to come and shoot your wedding, I have good friends who are wedding photographers and I can call on them to cover for me.

I will endeavour to never leave you without someone to photograph your wedding.

If for any reason you have to move your date then, if I’m free for the new date, we simply move everything over to that new date. If I’m not free or you have to cancel altogether then the cancelation policy in the contract applies and the initial booking fee is non-refundable, the remaining money is not due so long as the cancelation comes 29 days or more before the wedding date, if the cancelation is 28 days or less before the wedding date then the total fee is payable. If anything like this looks like it might happen then get in touch ASAP and we can work out what’s best to do.

You’ll get a license to use, share and print the photos, the only thing you can’t do is sell them, I retain copyright of the images unless otherwise agreed in the contract.

Full day coverage 500+

Half say coverage 250+

The exact amount depends on many factors including size of the wedding and length of the wedding.

Yes. I am fully covered for public liability and professional indemnity, as well as having all my equipment insured. These documents can be provided if needed.

Documentary-ish. I like to take un-posed, real, relaxed photographs of people; it’s all about capturing the real moments of joy and feeling, not setting up group shots or saying 'cheese'! That being said I’m more than happy to offer a little direction where it’s needed.

Yes I have backups. I wouldn’t work without them having only one camera is far too risky on a day that cannot be repeated! All my gear is backed up, I have many cameras and lenses so if one develops a fault I can grab another and keep going, as well as shooting on several memory cards during the day.

Of course! While my style lends itself to the un-staged natural photos I appreciate there is a need for some more formal posed photography, I’m happy to take the time to do these well without taking up too much of your wedding day.

All travel + accommodation is included in the UK

About a month before the wedding I will send you a questionnaire, after this we can have a face to face or Skype meeting at your wedding venue if possible. From here I can start to build up a picture of your day and a timeline of whats happening when, then a few days before the wedding I'll ring up just to confirm my arrival time. If at any point you have any questions then do get in touch.

After your wedding is when the sorting, storing, editing and backing up your photos begins. I start with a backup of all the memory cards used that day onto my main computer, then again onto an external drive, I also keep the photos on the memory cards till I’m done editing that way you have 3 backups of your photos at all times. Then I’ll start sorting and editing your photos, once I’m happy with the selection I'll back these up again and then they go onto an online gallery to be stored offsite. This seems a bit overkill I know, but computers break, hard drives fail and disasters can happen, I like to minimise the risk as much as possible

After this I'll send you an email once the edit is ready.
