WEDDINGS

I WANT TO TELL YOUR STORY

Over the last twenty years I have taken photographs at hundreds of weddings, each with their own story to tell. I have honestly loved shooting every single one of them.

I love the pace, the excitement and challenge of being there to photograph the biggest, most important day of your life.

To me photographing a wedding is more than just photographing a wedding! It is a chance to capture images of your loved ones and those magical moments in an informal and relaxed way. This means no posing, positioning or interference in anyway.

People often travel long distances to attend weddings and let’s be honest, how often are all our family and friends altogether in one place at one time? A few occasions in a lifetime, perhaps, if we are lucky! I want to be there to record that for you.

From photographing the wedding party getting ready, right through to the first dance; I will mingle with the guests at your wedding, wandering around, blending in and capturing those special, heart warming moments which will be treasured for a lifetime. The looks, the glances, the emotions… moments you may have missed. Family and friends all captured in a creative, real and honest way with beautiful, natural wedding photography.

Thank you so much for the wonderful photographs, they captured the day brilliantly…..you have captured special moments that will be with us forever.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

MEETING UP

If you like what you see and decide to book me to photograph your special day, we can meet up at anytime prior to the wedding to discuss any special requests you may have. I want to ensure it’s possible to take the photographs come rain or shine so a walk around your chosen venue is definitely something I like to do before the big day.

ENGAGEMENT PORTRAITS

In all wedding packages a free engagement shoot is included, just a handful of shots taken at a location of your choice, we can always do it at your chosen venue when we meet up if you wish. It is very informal and fun and will only take 15 minutes or so. You’ll get all of these images on a CD.

THE BIG DAY

I normally arrive at the departure address 2 hours or so before the ceremony so the story telling can begin right from the start; photographing the excitement and the preparations for the big day ahead. I will then zip of to the wedding venue to catch the groom and the guests arriving, very often this involves popping to the local pub to photograph the chaps pre-wedding drinking ritual!

Then of course, the wedding ceremony itself. I will be busy discretely photographing the day as it unfolds and capturing all of those very special moments.

I am more than happy to do any group shots that you would like but don’t want to make this a long drawn out affair so I will leave this to you to decide. If you wish to brief your ushers to assemble people, I’ll be there to take the shots!

I won’t be happy until I have really captured the essence of the day and this often means staying until at least your first dance, capturing the fun as the partying begins!

All of your images will be ready for you to view two weeks after your wedding, so when you’re back from your honeymoon or even on honeymoon you’ll be able to view them online, with a hard copy scrap book waiting for you when you get home.
