Frequently Asked Questions
Every wedding is different — that’s what I love about them. Click below to read the most common questions couples ask me. I plan for every eventuality so you can fully relax and enjoy your day.
Are you available for our date?
Yes! Just send me your wedding date and a few details via my contact page. I’ll reply personally within 24 hours to confirm availability.
How do we book you?
Once you’re ready, I’ll send a contract and invoice. A £250 deposit secures your date, with the balance due one week before your wedding.
Do you travel outside Wiltshire?
Absolutely. I photograph weddings across Dorset, Hampshire, and the UK — travel is part of the adventure.
Do you offer engagement/pre-wedding shoots?
Yes — a short, relaxed pre-shoot is included with full-day packages. It helps you feel comfortable in front of the camera before your big day.
Can we request specific photos?
Yes, especially for group shots. Beyond that, I focus on capturing natural, candid moments that tell the story of your day.
What’s your photography style?
Relaxed, real, and story-driven. I blend documentary moments with a hint of editorial creativity — capturing emotion, laughter, and connection without forced posing.
How long do you stay?
Full-day coverage typically runs from morning prep to an hour after the first dance — around 10–12 hours in total.
Will you help with the timeline?
Yes — I advise on timings for portraits, ceremony, and reception to make the most of natural light and flow, without disrupting your day.
Do you work alone?
I shoot solo for a discreet, storytelling approach. Backup photographers are available if needed (though it’s never been necessary).
Do you use flash?
I primarily use natural light, but employ soft, diffused flash when required — especially for receptions and evening portraits.
What happens if it rains?
I always plan for every eventuality. Umbrellas, covered areas, and creative lighting make rainy-day photos just as stunning.
When will we see our photos?
Your full gallery will be delivered in 4–5 weeks, often sooner. A few previews may be sent within days to relive the first moments.
How many photos will we receive?
Typically 700–900 fully edited images from a full day, all carefully selected and colour-graded.
Do you provide black & white images?
Yes — many images are delivered in both colour and black & white where it adds emotion or atmosphere.
Are you insured and do you back up files?
Yes, fully insured with professional indemnity and public liability cover. All files are backed up in multiple secure locations.
Do you offer albums or wall art?
I provide fine art albums, prints, and wall displays that showcase your wedding story beautifully. Samples and design options are available.
Can we create a bespoke package?
Yes — every wedding is unique. We can tailor coverage, timings, and extras to match your day perfectly.
