FAQ
What types of photography services do you offer?
I offer various photo session services but my specialities are Wedding and Newborn photography.
How do I book a photography session with you?
Booking a photography session is easy. Simply reach out to me through the website, email, or phone, and let me know the type of session you're interested in. I'll guide you through the process, discuss your requirements, and find a convenient date and time for your session.
Can we choose the location for our photo shoot?
Absolutely! I believe that the location plays a significant role in capturing unique and personalized photographs. Whether it's at your home, a scenic outdoor location, or a venue of your choice, I'm open to capturing your portraits in a place that holds meaning to you.
How long does a typical photo session last?
The duration of a photo session varies depending on the type and scope of the project. Newborn sessions typically range from 1 to 2 hours, while events and weddings can span several hours to entire days. I strive to provide ample time to capture all the important moments and ensure you feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the session.
How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
I understand the anticipation of seeing your final photos. My editing process typically takes 4-6 weeks, depending on the volume of images and the complexity of editing required. I prioritize quality and attention to detail to deliver exceptional images that exceed your expectations.
What happens if the weather is unfavorable on the day of an outdoor shoot?
If the weather doesn't cooperate on the day of an outdoor photoshoot, we can discuss alternatives such as rescheduling the session or finding an indoor location.
I want to ensure the best possible outcome for your photos, and I am flexible in adapting to unforeseen circumstances.
In the case of Weddings where the date cannot be moved around, I will adapt myself to capture the best possible photos but obviously cannot re-schedule.
Will we meet you before the wedding?
Yes, of course. We will have a meeting to discuss your timeline the fine details, and your requirements.
Do we have to have the pre-wedding meeting at the venue?
No, not if it suits you to have it somewhere else. It would be difficult to arrange this if you are getting married in a Chateau in France, so we can have it anywhere that suits. As long as we can grab a coffee and a slice of cake and have a chat that is fine.
Are you insured?
Absolutely. I always have Public Liability and Personal Indemnity insurance in place. Please check this with any photographer you may choose if not me (but it would be lovely if you choose me of course), any photographer will be happy to show insurance - unless they don't have any of course!
Do we need to supply you with a meal?
No, you do not need to at all. Some venues will supply the photographer with a meal so feel free to ask them, but I am more than happy to sit down somewhere quiet with my sandwich and a cola or juice from the bar.
How many photos will I get?
This is never a straightforward answer as there are many variables that will affect the amount of photos you receive in your final gallery.
A 50 minute church ceremony will allow for more photos than a 12 minute registrar led ceremony.
Some venues will allow me to roam quite freely and take any photos I wish, other venues are very strict on where I can stand and when I can and can not take photographs.
Naturally, having 100 guests will allow for more photos than having 20 guests. I will always photograph as much as I can but I am always tied to the House Rules of the venue you have chosen.take photographs. Obviously having 100 guests will allow for more photos than having 20 guests. I will always photograph as much as I can but I am always tied to the House Rules of the venue you have chosen.
I never limit the amount of photographs I edit and deliver to you so don't worry that I have kept any photos back. That will never be the case.
Do you have backup equipment in case of failures?
Yes I do. All of my equipment is modern and replaced at timely intervals.
I carry 2 matching cameras, spare lenses and spare flash heads if needed. I change memory cards at regular intervals through the day and my camera holds two memory cards.
What areas do you cover?
Where do you need me to be? I cover Kent, Sussex, and Surrey regularly. I have also photographed weddings in Berkshire and Hertfordshire and shot weddings abroad and remember well a wedding on a beach on the gulf coast of Florida many years ago.
So just let me know where your venue is and we can sort out a package that suits. You might be surprised at how affordable it can be if it turns out you are getting married in one of my dream wedding locations.
Can you recommend a videographer?
Yes, I regularly work with a Videographer that I highly recommend. We offer joint booking discounts if you book with both of us so don't forget to mention me to them and that you are keen to book both!
