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 Photography South Causey Inn

Wedding photography South Causey Inn

2015 began with a wonderful wedding at South Causey Inn, with my first wonderful couple of the year Zoe & David.

They chose the brisk month of January to be wed and due to this we were expecting and hoping to have a little scatter of snow showers. You never quite know from one wedding to another what the weather will bring, but sadly we didnt even get a snowflake! We were however very fortunate to work with the low winter sun bringing some beautiful warm rays which streamed through the trees resulting in some lovely portraiture along the nearby railway tracks and woodlands.

Zoe runs her own cake company at zoecakecompany and produced a stunning wedding cake, complete with an array of cherry blossom detailing to compliment her oriental theme. This teamed with some lovely touches of striking red in her bouquet by Ann & Susans florist,her amazing Christy NG designer shoes, table decorations and chinese style parasol made the attention to detail second to none.

As with all brides, Zoe looked stunning in her full length Mark Lesley wedding gown. She smiled from ear to ear as she followed her bridesmaids down the aisle and giggled and cried throughout the wedding ceremony with David.

Keeping with Chinese tradition a brief tea party ceremony was held with some special family members and soon afterwards began the speeches of the day. Bridesmaid Nicola delivered a lovely speech about Zoe and of course as standard David suffered a few embarrassing moments from his best man…complete with a mankini pic!

To sum up, the day went without a hitch…it brought everything a wedding day should. LOTS of love, laughter, tears, family and friends and a genuinely wonderful couple who look like they were simply made for each other!
