FAQ's
We are lucky to receive a very high volume of enquiries, so we get asked so many questions every day. On this page we try to cover those queries that come up most frequently. If you have a question that isn’t covered here, or if you’d like anymore details or information at all, please just send us a message via the contact form and we will get back to you.
What style of photography would best describe you?
​
​
We specialise in documentary, candid, wedding photography. We feel your wedding day is about you – not us. So we won’t pose you. We will take a handful of what we call traditional pictures for you as we understand that moms, dads, and grandparents expect some of these. We want you to enjoy your day and not to be dragged from pillar to post. Our style is natural and our approach is very relaxed. We don’t run through a shot list like some photographers (this just makes every wedding look the same!) We will let you be yourself, let you have the very best day possible and this means we are able to capture the most natural moments and take the very best and most creative photographs for you.
Will you photograph our wedding in a different style if we ask you to?
​
We like to think that our pictures are what attracted you to us in the first place so in short the answer is not really. This is our style.
​
Our style is contemporary, natural and non posed – that’s what we’re really good at and that’s what we stick to. People book with us because they love our work and they want our trademark relaxed approach to photographing weddings on their big day. We have developed this approach to enable you to really enjoy your day without thinking about photography at all: you plan your day the way you want it and we fit in around these plans – not the other way around!
Are you insured?
​
Yes, we are fully insured. We have Public Liability and Indemnity Insurance. Certificates are available on request.
​
What equipment do you use?
​
Our main camera is a Nikon 750 (very popular amongst Wedding Photographers). We have two identical which means we have the perfect back up should there be an issue with one all the lenses are interchangeable, being the same camera there are no difference to your final images.
​
We use two cameras on wedding days, so have access to two lens choices to allow us to capture any moment the way we want to (no stopping to change lenses at important times!) We always come with professional cameras, professional back up equipment and a host of professional lenses to choose from. For us, Nikon are the very best photographic cameras, money can buy and we have invested heavily in the very best equipment Nikon offer.
Do we get the rights to print the images wherever we choose?
​
Yes, the choice of where you go to print your images is completely down to you! We give you complete freedom in terms of printing, sharing and posting your images online. You get all your digital images at high resolution, at full resolution, with no watermark.
We just want you to love your wedding photography.
​
When will we get our images?
​
We aim to get your images to you in Hi Resolution Jpeg image files on a USB in a personalised wooden box within 4 to 6 weeks of your wedding day. In very busy periods this may slip to 8 to 10 weeks.
​
Who retains copyright of the images?
​
We do – it’s industry standard for the photographer to retain the copyright. However, as mentioned above, this doesn’t affect your usage of the images in any way whatsoever. We retain copyright to ensure other companies cannot simply used our images without getting our permission and crediting us properly. We are always happy to share images with other suppliers – we just ask them to get in touch with us first so we can let them know how to credit us.
​
How many images will we receive
​
This is the age old question. There are many factors to consider. The vicar/registrar may make us stay in one position during the ceremony, the time of year or weather will make a difference, we get less light to work with, Your friends and family will make a difference, If we cant find Aunty Gladys when the group shot is ready, she won't be on the picture. We recommend any lists are given to the Best Man or Maid of Honour so they can gather everyone for individual pictures. we normally deliver over 500 images from your day but these points will make a difference.
Do you offer pre-wedding shoots?
​
We do a pre wedding chat with a few pics called a get to know you meet and greet. This is included in the all day package. The meet and greet must be before the wedding or it has no purpose. A pre-wedding shoot is a lovely add on to any package – however, as we are natural, documentary photographers, a pre-wedding shoot really isn’t a necessity. A pre-wedding shoot can never replicate what your wedding day will be like and we will photograph your wedding day in the same natural style and use the same relaxed, non-traditional approach whether you have had a pre-wedding shoot or not. If you want to change the meet and greet to a full shoot, our normal photo shoot prices will be used and added to your final total.
​
If you decide to add on a pre-wedding shoot, then great, we’ll really look forward to it! We’ll shoot it in the same natural style as we will use on your wedding day. No posing, no staging, no set up shots or copying other photographs. Also.
