What kind of deposit do you require?

I ask you to pay a deposit of £300 this secures my services and your date and makes it unavailable to other couples.

What kind of equipment do you use?

I use professional Canon equipment, I carry two Canon 5D MkIII with a selection of L series lenses (some of the best lenses money can buy) I also bring lighting along in the event of bad weather and or we have to shoot inside in low lighting conditions

In the event of bad weather, We are happy to continue to shoot in the rain if you arebut normally we would search for a sheltered area or locate an area indoors or even wait for a break in the weather, But we would always have a plan “B”

What if something happened to you on my wedding day or you couldn’t make it?

In the very unlikely event I can not make it to your day, I will provide an alternative photographer of the same caliber.

What is an Engagement or E shoot ?

An E shoot is when we meet up on a pre designated date before your wedding where we take photographs of you and your partner, practicing what you like and don’t like, E shoots are an essential part of wedding photography.

When you say you cover the whole day, how long is that?

Its exactly what it says, I start when you do, from the bridal preparations (optional) up to 9 hours and usually till just after the first dance, depending on your chosen package.

How many pictures do I get?

There is no limit to the amount of pictures you will receive, but a typical wedding would be anything from 300 to 500+ photographs.

Can I put them on face book?

Yes of course in fact I encourage you to do so, I will even supply you with small resolution versions for that very purpose!

How long before I receive my photographs?

6 to 8 weeks possibly more depending on holiday or busy periods, but i will always strive to get them to you as fast as possible.

I am only having a small wedding, Do you offer a discount for fewer people?

I’m sorry no, I only offer full day packages from morning till evening.

Do you Photograph anywhere in the UK ?

Yes, I’m happy to travel anywhere in both the UK or the World.

Wedding Photographer Newton Hall

Wedding photographer Newton Hall by David West Photography

Helen & Andrew married at the bold yet romantic venue Newton Hall in the presence of their friends and family. Surprise visitors arrived during the speeches…2 waitors and a chef suddenly bursting into song (opera style). They really raised the roof in this fantastic venue and encouraged guests to sing along! Later in the evening we took some time away to capture some wedding portraiture around the grounds of Newton Hall and not only were we lucky enough to capture a rainbow we were also blessed with a beautiful sunset!

Here is a little peek into how Helen & Andrews day unfolded…..hope you enjoy them!
