What is an Engagement shoot?
I believe the secret to great wedding photos is that we are comfortable and relaxed with each other and that the whole process is as much fun as possible, and that's why I recommend a pre-wedding photo shoot with your wedding coverage. It’s great for helping you feel more at ease being in front of the camera, giving you more of an idea as to how I work and getting some fantastic images to celebrate this time.
What is your wedding photography style?
I focus on natural, authentic storytelling, but with a healthy portion of fun and romance. I'm not into any heavy posing or contrived set-ups, just some gentle tips are provided when required. Take a look at some of my work to get a feel, - my main focus is capturing the emotion of the day naturally but
beautifully.
What about formal photos?
Nearly all weddings require a certain amount of traditional group photos, and they are still an important part of the day. From experience I would suggest limiting a list to essentials for the sake of everyone's patience! Allow 3-4 minutes at least for each shot and it really helps to appoint a responsible helper who knows who's who.
What happens before and after our wedding?
About a month before your wedding I like to meet to go through the final details such as timings, locations and group shots. This gives me all of the information I need and ensures I am fully prepared! After the big day it can take between 2-8 weeks to edit all your photos but I'll always aim to get some sneak peeks on social media in the meantime.
How do I receive my photos?
Each wedding gallery includes a special wooden USB box which holds all of your edited images. Your wedding will also include an online gallery to view your entire set and allows you and your guests to download, share & cherish the heartfelt pictures from your special day.
What locations do you cover?
I would love to cover your wedding wherever it is. For weddings over 50 miles from Colchester I may have to add travel and/or accommodation costs to your package.
For destination weddings please get in touch for a bespoke quote.
Do you provide wedding books?
Yes of course! I would naturally recommend you have a professionally designed and printed wedding book if your budget allows. These photos look amazing printed in HD and of a professional quality that will last a lifetime. I'm happy to design and order your wedding book for up to 18 months after your wedding. So no pressure to decide right away when booking a package.
