FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO CONTACT YOU?

Head over to my contact page or just email me HERE or feel free to give me a call - 07450226827

HOW DO WE BOOK YOU? 

I'm sure you'll want to meet up in person or at least Skype chat so we can get to know a little about each other before hand. Once you're happy and would like to book me for your day just contact me over on my contact page where I ask for a 20% deposit to secure your date which is then deducted from the remaining balance that I ask you to pay 28 days before the wedding date. 

WHAT IS YOUR STYLE?

I would describe it as documentary wedding photography which is relaxed and unobtrusive. I’m there just to document your special day which you celebrate with family and friends.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE BEFORE WE SEE OUR IMAGES OF THE DAY?

I like to post a few 'Sneak Peek' shots to Instagram a few days after the wedding and will deliver the fully edited images within 3-4 weeks.

DO YOU TAKE FORMAL GROUP PHOTOS AND HOW LONG DO THEY TAKE? 

I like to try and do these straight after the ceremony just before everyone makes a dash for the bar. Normally 15-20 minutes is all that's needed to get the family group shots. Having an Usher to help organise family members is a real help too. 

WE’RE A BIT NERVOUS ABOUT HAVING OUR WEDDING PHOTOS TAKEN?

I totally understand, I don’t really like having my photo taken. What I like to do is for us to pop out for no more than 15-20 minutes during golden hour and have a little mooch around the grounds finding some nice little pockets of light where we can snap some natural, relaxed portraits which are always fun to do. It’s all unplanned and we go with the flow of the day.

ARE YOU INSURED?

Absolutely, I can provide a certificate of Insurance if you or your venue requests one.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?

I shoot with Sony camera’s with fast Sony prime lenses. My camera's have dual memory slots so each image I shoot is copied to another card for backup in the camera.

WILL ALL IMAGES BE EDITED? 

Yes, every image will be individually edited by myself and delivered in high resolution print ready format.

DO WE NEED TO FEED YOU?

It's entirely up to you guys as I always pack some sandwiches and a flask of coffee, though if a meal is going spare I'm happy to take it off your hands. 

HOW FAR WILL YOU TRAVEL AND IS THERE A CHARGE?

I'm based in Droitwich Spa where I cover Herefordshire and Worcestershire at no extra charge. If you live outside of these counties then please ask for a quote. 

DO YOU SHOOT FILM? 

Indeed I do. I embraced film about 3 years ago. My favourite film format is 120mm (Medium Format) which I use to shoot mostly for personal projects, and walk around with a 35mm point & shoot camera in my pocket on most occasions. Don't be surprised to see me shooting the odd frame with a film camera on your day.
