Backing up your Photos and/or mpg4 video – Please be sure to backup all of your wedding images and/or mpg4 video, we only hold onto backups for a duration of 3 months.

This a popular question from couples; one of the most important aspects of your day are the memories you have recorded however I’m sure you have experienced weddings where the Photography has taken up more time than you and your guests enjoying the special moments with friends and family, this is why it is essential to balance the number of Group photos, I personally, would recommend keeping these to a minimum, then you and your guests can truly enjoy the celebrations. Naturally, if you have any impromptu shots throughout the day, let me know, it’s never a problem whatsoever. However I always say, “you want to spend as much time with your family and friends as possible, should you wish to have just the two of you photographed we love to spend 20 mins with the two of you, away from your guests.

Yes, I have been photographing weddings for over 30yrs, and I am very skilled and passionate about my work, I’m also a firm believer in the true meaning of the word Professional, photography is my profession, I do not photograph weddings on the weekend and then work elsewhere through the week, this is my profession 24/7.

We are a team of two, you’ll always have two Photographers on your Wedding day 

Yes, I am fully insured however I always suggest that clients take out wedding insurance as this covers everything from any problems with a supplier, damage caused to the wedding attire or if you have to cancel due to accident, illness, etc.

If this is your desired wishes then naturally I will always try to meet Brides at the venue, however, lighting, foliage can be completely different on your wedding day, therefore, I always arrive up to two hours prior to the ceremony, which gives me ample opportunity to view the location; I have recorded weddings in many diverse places over the years from Castles through to caves, therefore, my experience is one of the highest and you can rest assured that you’re in safe hands.

Yes, I have recorded many weddings with celebrities, from George Michael, Jenson Button, Billy Ocean, Connie Fisher, Paddy Brennan, Bewitched, 911, many West end stars.

Another popular question, I love working with natural light, keeping the true ambiance of the scene, overuse of flash alters the look and feel of the image, if there are soft lights, candlelit rooms, then I love to capture this within the photograph where possible.

It’s always a pleasure to meet with clients however this isn’t necessary, weddings are very time consuming for the Bride and Groom, and therefore you can relax and leave everything to me with regards to recording your day also because of the documentary-style we love to let the day unfold naturally.

Every Bride wants beautiful weather, however, this really isn’t an issue, I have photographed weddings in Snow, Rain, Hail, and thunderstorms, every situation adds to the occasion and quite often overcast days have the most incredible natural light.

Your wedding photos will be ready for you 2 weeks after your wedding; these we will be sent to you Special Delivery. Your personal Gallery will be uploaded for you to view/download two weeks after your wedding, from your very own Gallery page, you can design and order you beautiful bespoke album.

Over 25 years, I used to work freelance for many large corporate companies and have produced work for companies such as Disney and Sony however I only document weddings now as this has always been my passion.

We do not limit the number of images you receive for your wedding. Many photography companies will offer a limit of 300/400 on disk, my style of photography is to ensure I capture the perfect shot therefore when you receive your photos, they are individual images and no limit is set, it could be anything from 700/1000 on USB.

Absolutely, this is very important as it adds that special touch to your Wedding Video highlights.

Yes, we supply a coffee table and the beautiful leather-bound stunning wedding album.

I have been a photographer and cameraman for many years and I understand the Wedding Photography Art to a T, I shoot with top Pro cameras which are known to be the best cameras in the world, they produce incredible imagery, my service to you is to provide you with outstanding and finished works, therefore I do not supply unedited or RAW images or footage.

Unlike many companies; you book me and I photograph your day for you.

Many Brides ask this question and the answer is approximately 50% of a wedding is document are inside, the Ceremony, Speeches, cutting of the cake and your first dance.

A great tip to bear in mind is, try to keep the conversations with your guests as short as possible, if you have 80 guests and each guest chats for a minute the time runs away for you.

Images: Unlike many other companies, you receive all your images taken on your day, there is absolutely no limit on the photos taken, and there are no hidden costs.

Booking Fee: To secure your date, a booking fee of 35% (thirty five percent) is required; the full balance of which is due 8 weeks before your wedding.
