LET ME TELL
YOUR STORY
Planning a wedding can be hard, but I want to make the photography side of it easy for you – both on the day and in the planning.
I’ve tried to keep everything as simple and straightforward as possible, from the process of booking me, support throughout the planning of your wedding and fuss-free, unintrusive photography on the day itself.

Award-winning wedding photography with none of the hassle.
My work has been recognised by many of the most notable award bodies in wedding photography. I’m currently ranked in the top 100 wedding photographers in the world on MyWed (#3 in UK) and have featured in the GoHen Top 50 UK Wedding Photographers roundup several times.
Many individual images have also picked up awards from some of the most prestigious international wedding photography awards including Fearless Photographers, Ninedots, Photographers Keeping it Real and more.
All of which is very nice. But my focus on your wedding day is not “which award can I win next”, but “how can I best tell the story of your wedding”. If awards and recognition come from that, then great. But it is not my primary motivation to achieve great photos.

THE PROCESS
01.
REQUEST A PRICE LIST
Drop me a quick message and tell me a bit about your wedding plans and I’ll send you a link to my price list where you’ll find all the information about the packages and additional extras I offer
I offer packages which suit weddings in all shapes and sizes which are customisable to give you the coverage you need. As I recognise that all weddings are different and everyone has different priorities, I provide several different optional extras to help you create the wedding package that suits you and your wedding.
02.
HOW TO BOOK
Once you’ve chosen the package which best suits you and your wedding, the next step is to confirm your booking. To make this process super easy, you’ll receive a link to your Wedding Photography Portal where you’ll find all the stuff you’ll need to secure your date and provide me with all the info I’ll need before your wedding day.
In the portal you’ll find a contract which just requires you to read, add your address and pop in an e-signature. You’ll also find an invoice which tells you what you need to pay and when (there is a £400.00 booking fee to secure the date, with remaining balance then due 28 days before the wedding).
You’ll also find a couple of questionnaires in there, one which tells me a little bit more about you both (how you met, what you like to do etc) and another which tells me more specific stuff about your wedding day.
And that’s it. SUPER. EASY.
03.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
As we get a bit closer to the big day, I’ll be in touch to have a quick Zoom chat to go through your plans for the day and cover any questions you may have. However, please don’t feel that you have to wait for this to ask me anything! I’m here for you at any stage to offer advice with anything to do with your wedding planning, or recommend amazing suppliers who will help to deliver your dream wedding. With 10 years and almost 250 weddings under my belt, I’ve picked up a fair bit of valuable experience of what works/doesn’t work, and have a little black book of super talented industry folk for you to tap into.
I’m here for you EVERY STEP of the way.

ON THE DAY
So you’ve checked out my portfolio, seen some real weddings in my blog and may now be wondering what the process looks like behind it all. Well let me tell you!
It may surprise you to hear that I don’t believe the photography is the most important part of your wedding day. My priority on the day is to ensure the photography aspect of the day compliments the wedding day, rather than taking it over. By this I mean I will not be whisking you away from your guests for hours, leaving them scratching their heads and wondering where the stars of the show have gone. Weddings are all about spending time with your loved ones, and although I think I’m pretty easy to get along with, I don’t want you spending more time with me than you do with family you may not have had all in one place before, and may not again for many years.
With that in mind, my main focus on the day is to give you space to relax and enjoy this time while I capture candid moments that capture the atmosphere of the day and help to bring it back to life for you when you view the photos in years to come.
I also believe it’s important to create some beautiful portraits that showcase you and the beauty of the surroundings you’ve chosen for your wedding along with a few family group photos, but I won’t be taking up big chunks of your day for this – 20 minutes here and there is usually more than enough.
05.
AFTER THE WEDDING
One of the most important questions you’ll have at this stage is ‘how and when do we get our wedding photos?’ so let me explain how it works.
As I know you’ll be itching to see them, I post a little ‘sneak peek’ a few days after the wedding (around 15-20 images which I usually post on Facebook/Instagram). Timescales for delivery of the gallery vary depending on the time of year, but typically you can expect to receive your photos in around 6-8 weeks (during quiet times, much quicker). I’ll be able to give you a more accurate timescale on your wedding day.
You’ll receive your photos in a stunning, password-protected online gallery via a link which I will send you via email. You can then share this link and the password with whoever you wish (friends and family can also purchase prints from the day directly through the gallery). You will also be able to download your images in full resolution (and also in reduced sizes for sharing on social media).
If you’ve chosen an album as part of your package, you can also make your choices of images for the album in the gallery ready for me to create the design for you.
