Frequently asked questions
Everything couples ask before they book.
Fifteen years of the same good questions, answered properly. If yours is not here, send it over — I reply the same day.

Before you book
I check the diary, then you hear from me.
If I’m free on your date, I’ll reply — usually the same day — with a link to book a quick video call, so we can talk plans and make sure we’re a good fit before you commit to anything.
Of course — most couples do.
We’ll jump on a short Google Meet via my Calendly link: you tell me about the day, I’ll show you full galleries, and there’s no obligation on either side. Prefer everything in writing first? The price and real weddings are all on this site.
Pencil, yes. Ink needs a contract.
I’ll happily pencil you in while you decide, but a date is only truly secured with a signed contract and the £500 booking retainer — strictly first come, first served.
Everything. One price, nothing withheld.
£2,500 covers unlimited hours from morning prep to the dancefloor, 800+ edited photographs, 100+ previews the morning after the wedding, your own client portal, full printing rights and UK travel.
Always.
You sign it online in your client portal — the same place you make payments and fill in your pre-wedding questionnaire. Everything in one login.
Cards, transfers — whatever suits.
Credit and debit cards or bank transfer, all handled securely through the client portal.

On the day
Until the story’s told.
Unlimited hours means I’m not counting them. I’m with you from morning prep through to a busy dancefloor — usually about an hour after the first dance, once the party is properly up and running and the day’s story is complete. No clock-watching, and no packing up at a set time.
Yes, just yes.
It’s a great shot and one of my favourite images of any wedding day. I’ll help you plan the where and when so it lands perfectly.
Yes — quickly and painlessly.
Give me a list of 8–10 combinations before the day and we’ll work through them in around twenty minutes, then everyone heads back to the party. Formals aside, I’ll happily offer gentle direction whenever it helps — a nudge into better light, a hand on where to stand — but the rest of the day is yours to simply live.
The things that go wrong
£5m of cover, with PhotoGuard.
Public Liability and Professional Indemnity, through the UK’s leading photographic insurer. Your venue can have the certificate any time they ask.
Sony A9 III bodies, with two A9 II bodies as backup.
Prime lenses throughout — 24mm, 50mm, 85mm and 135mm — which is why the photographs look the way they do in low light and why I can work from a distance without you noticing. Every camera records to two memory cards at once, so a card failure loses nothing, and I back the day up again on site as it goes rather than waiting until I get home. Your wedding exists in three places before I leave the building.
There’s a plan, and a contract behind it.
In fifteen years it hasn’t happened. If it ever did, I’d call on the second shooters I work with regularly — photographers I’ve chosen because they shoot the way I shoot and are experienced at covering weddings on their own. Your contract sets out exactly where you stand, so your day is protected either way.
No — but I know who you should call.
I photograph only, so you get my full attention. I work alongside brilliant videographers every month and I’m happy to recommend the right one for your day.

Afterwards
100+ previews before breakfast.
You’ll wake up the morning after your wedding to 100 fully edited previews. The complete gallery of 800+ follows in the weeks after — passworded, downloadable and ready to print.
What you see is what occurred.
Every image is individually edited for colour, light and crop — but no heavy retouching, no sky replacements, no artificial skin smoothing. Your photographs will still look true in thirty years.
Ask me directly
If your question is not on this page, it is probably a good one. Send it over with your date and venue and you will hear back the same day.
