Allister Freeman Photography
Hello, I'm Allister and I create a particularly personal style of documentary wedding and portrait photography. By working with me you won't be made to pose, jump, dance, twirl or otherwise play up to the camera. I've been a professional documentary wedding photographer since 2004, photographing hundreds of weddings and portrait commissions internationally; my style has developed into a distinct form of natural and honest coverage.

I tend to work with available light only and avoid using artificial light, from a flash for instance. This allows me to faithfully photograph the atmosphere of an event and occasion. It also gives my style a strong and consistent look, wherever the wedding or portrait shoot takes place. My natural and unobtrusive style captures the essence of an event without the need for posing.

I don't believe in photographic fads and recognise the value in timeless, elegant and authentic reportage photography, where each frame tells a story.
Services
There are many terms used to describe my style of natural wedding photography, so it can be a little confusing when researching into the different types and styles of wedding photographers for your day.
My discreet approach to a more authentic and honest style as a wedding photographer is often created using natural and available light only and is most commonly described as 'reportage wedding photography' or 'documentary wedding photography'.
In essence, these terms describe the same fundamental, candid style of wedding photography - one that doesn't dictate or direct but simply observes and discreetly captures genuine, un-staged and spontaneous moments as they unfold, naturally.
Wedding photography packages featuring a full day of coverage have a starting price of 2150.
I have pricing options for a variety of durations including packages for multi-day weddings, just let me know your requirements and I'll send over a relevant quotation.
I'm commissioned across the UK and overseas, I shoot a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every commission receives the same, exceptionally high attention to detail.
The aim is always to produce a collection of natural photographs that authentically represent your day and experience; nothing awkward or contrived.
In essence, I don't dictate or direct but instead observe to discreetly cover events as they happen.
I photograph your day as it naturally unfolds, capturing real moments and creating a timeless record of your day.
I always photograph everything in colour and regularly provide couples with a full-colour gallery to site alongside their black and white and colour collection.
With a typical collection of images, I tend to convert around 70% to black and white during the later stages of post-production.
I design and create a range of premium, professional wedding albums for my photography packages but also other wedding photographers, artists and couples who are in need of a high end, custom wedding photo album service in the UK.
There's an incredible feeling when you're presented with a photo album of wedding or portrait images to look through, photographs are often studied for a little longer and the quality of the photographic printing can really be appreciated.
Looking at digital wedding albums online or screen, no matter how large the images, just isn't the same.
I'll be honest, I don't really enter my work into wedding photography awards or competitions, my immediate aim is not to be one of those award-winning wedding photographers, as talented as they are.
I know it's cliche but instead, I focus my time on delivering exceptional products to my wedding couples.
I also help other wedding photographers through my various photography business and marketing training programmes.
It's far more important to me that my customers get the amazing wedding photographs they're expecting, and so my time goes into that process over and above submitting work to wedding photography and industry awards.
