Questions
What style of wedding photography do you specialize in?
I specialize in documentary-style wedding photography that captures authentic, unposed moments. My approach focuses on vibrant storytelling without interrupting your day.
Do you travel for weddings outside Bristol?
Yes, I travel throughout the UK and internationally for weddings. All travel and accommodation costs are included in packages, with possible surcharges for distant locations.
How long does it take to receive edited photographs?
Photographs are delivered within 8 weeks, with possible extensions during busy periods. Albums take an additional 6-8 weeks for design and production.
Can we request specific shots or poses?
While I focus on candid moments, I can accommodate essential formal group shots. These are kept minimal to maintain the documentary style.
What equipment do you use?
I use professional Canon cameras with backup equipment. Drone footage is included where possible, though weather or location restrictions may apply.
How do you handle bad weather on wedding days?
I prepare contingency plans for indoor photography and use weather-appropriate gear. Flexibility ensures quality results regardless of conditions.
