Do you travel for weddings?
Yes! I’m based in Manchester, but I’m available to shoot weddings anywhere in the UK, Europe and USA. Travel costs are added depending on your location.
What if our wedding day goes longer than expected?
If your day runs longer than planned, we can easily adjust for additional hours. I offer flexible options for overtime, so we can ensure everything is covered.
Do you provide a second photographer?
I’m the primary photographer, but if you want more coverage, I offer the option to add a second photographer. This allows for additional angles, moments, and a broader coverage of the day.
How do we secure our wedding date?
Once you’ve decided to book, I’ll send over a contract and a deposit to secure your date. The deposit is 25% of the total price, with the balance due closer to the wedding day. payment plans are available if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we customize a package to fit our needs?
Absolutely! My packages are fully customizable. If you need more coverage, want specific moments captured, or need something different, we can work together to create a package that fits your day and budget.
What if it rains on our wedding day?
We all know that rain is a common guest at weddings in the UK, but don’t worry! I always scout locations ahead of time, and a little rain can actually add to the romance of your day. I’ve got plenty of creative ideas for indoor shots, so we’ll still capture all those beautiful moments—no matter the weather!
How many hours of coverage do we need?
The right amount of coverage depends on how much you want captured. Most couples book 8-10 hours to cover the full day, from preparations to the evening party. I’m happy to help you decide based on what’s most important to you.
How long do you keep our photos for? Are they backed up somewhere? What happens if we lose them?
I keep your wedding photos safely backed up for 1 year, so you can rest assured that they’re secure. After that period, I may no longer be able to retrieve them, but you’ll always have access to your online gallery for downloads.
In the unlikely event that you lose your photos, I can provide a replacement for a small fee, as long as they are still available on my system.
How long until we get our photos back? How many do we usually get back?
You'll receive a sneak peek of some of your best moments within 2/3 days of your wedding. The full gallery will be delivered within 6-8 weeks, depending on the time of year and workload.
As for the number of photos, it varies depending on the size and length of your day, but you can typically expect around 50 edited images per hour in your online gallery.
Fab, fab photographer - would highly recommend - every picture was amazing. Every special moment captured without anybody realizing pictures were being taken - so many memories and pictures captured.
Kathryn - known as Katie arrived at my wedding and straight from the start was so relaxed, approachable and just really a lovely vibe.
She captured ‘moments’ and I just can not wait to see the final photographs as she showed me a couple on the camera and they were unbelievable.
I have had so many people tell me that they saw her catching moments and they themselves can’t wait to see them.
She was such a gorgeous woman and an asset absolutely highly recommend!
