FAQS
Where are you based and do you travel?
I LOVE to travel and I've captured weddings as far away as Italy and Mexico and couple sessions in Bali! I'm based in South Wales and grew up in the New Forest so constantly spend my time travelling between the two. I also have two bases in Hampshire (Fareham and New Forest) where I stay for weddings nearby as well as friends in London, Brighton and Essex. 50 miles from my South Wales base is included in my packages and anything extra is charged at £0.45p per mile.
We're nervous about having our photo taken, help!?
I hear this all the time and I completely get it! You likely want those natural, unforced photos so I make it my mission for us to have lots of fun so nothing feels awkward. How you feel about your wedding photographs afterwards actually has a lot to do with how you felt when it was taken! You place a lot of value in your couple portraits on your wedding day. These photos are important to you. Although you might be concerned that you'll feel nervous and awkward in your wedding photos. Don't worry. I have the best tricks up my sleeves for getting the most natural and authentic smiles and laughter from you both. You'll leave your couple portrait session saying: "That was really fun and no way near as scary as we thought!"
How long do you stay?
I love to arrive 2 hours before your ceremony to capture your morning preparations unfolding. My full day package is 10 hours long and that's usually enough time to cover everything happening throughout your wedding day. If you'd like me to stay longer I'm more than happy to and we can discuss an hourly rate.
What happens if you're sick or can't attend our wedding?
If you've booked a second photographer, they will takeover as your main photographer and we will source you a new second photographer. If you haven't booked a second photographer we will call upon our trusted and talented associates to step into my place for the day. They will then hand the photographs over to me for editing in the style that you love and I'll deliver the rest of your service as agreed. P.S. I'm so proud to be able to say that I've never ever missed a wedding!
When and how do we get our photos?
After your wedding day you will receive a set of preview images within the first week. You'll then receive a surprise print preview in the post just before your full online wedding gallery is sent to you. Your online gallery is secure and password protected. You can hide certain photos from guests, order prints and share online copies easily through the gallery. I strive for quality over quantity in my work always. You'll be provided with an online gallery full of beautiful images which tell your story. Weddings usually receive a gallery of around 500-600 photographs and if you create an album it's usually got around 60 images of your wedding day in there. In peak season my turnaround time can be up to 10 weeks for weddings but I always strive to deliver sooner.
