FAQ
How do we book you?
Simply contact me by email or phone to check I am available on the date of your Wedding. I will send you a contract and booking form, these need to be filled in and returned to me together with a deposit of £250.00. Once I have received these the date will be reserved for you and I will drop you a letter confirming this.
Do we need to meet you beforehand?
Much of my work is available to view on line, however if you are still unsure and would like to meet up beforehand I am happy to do this. I normally recommend meeting up at the wedding venue, however I can come to your home, it is entirely up to you. It is important to ensure that we both want the same things from your Wedding Photography – there will be no hard sell, just an informal chat.
What does full coverage mean?
Full coverage means I will be with you all day – from the bridal party getting ready right up until the party is in full swing.
Will you need feeding?
You do not need to worry about feeding me, I will look after myself.
How far will you travel?
I would be prepared to travel anywhere, however if it is outside of the South East please contact me as I may need to charge a little more to cover expenses for hotels. If it was a long distance I would prefer to arrive the night before so I can start the day fresh and avoid the risk of being stuck in traffic.
How many images will I receive?
This is a difficult one to answer as every wedding is different and the number of images taken can depend on the weather, guests and venue restrictions. However I aim to provide in excess of 450 images for a full days coverage.
How long will it take to take to receive my photos?
I aim to have them ready by the time you return from your honeymoon.
How many of my photos will be black & white and how many colour?
You may notice that I have a lot of black & white photos on my site. This is a personal preference as I love the timeless look and feel of old film photography. If you are considering booking me as your Wedding Photographer then I guess that you do to. I normally try to deliver 50:50 ratio of colour and monochrome, but this of course can be swayed to your preference.
What equipment do you use?
I use two Nikon D700 cameras with fast prime lenses. I have back ups for all my equipment.
Do you use flash?
Only when I need to. I use flash to improve quality of light rather than quantity, but I am mostly a natural light photographer.
Do you take formal and group photographs?
On my booking form I will ask you how many, if any, formal family group shots you would like taken so that I can make sure I take the time to get these photographs for you. I appreciate that the older generation still like traditional photographs for their mantelpiece.
How long will these take?
I try to get them all done in 20 minutes right after the ceremony before anyone escapes to the bar.
When will you take the portraits of just the two of us?
I will normally ask you at some point during the day when you are ready and this will also only take 20 minutes. I like to wait until the light is right or when you are both relaxed and ready to have your pictures taken. My aim is to make it relaxed and fun and not too staged, but still try to get something creative.
