Wedding packages and prices

I understand that the choice of wedding photographer is an important one that requires a great deal of consideration.

Your wedding day is likely to be one of the most important days of your life. Very few other days will require the amount of planning, care and attention to detail you put into the preparations and arrangements for your wedding. Your plans will require a careful and personal approach in order to create the photographic images that reflect you and your day. The day's celebrations will unfortunately pass by all too quickly and the photographs created should stimulate emotions and re-kindle the excitement experienced on the day.

With almost thirty years wedding photography experience it is still my aim to provide a truly personal touch throughout all the wedding assignments I accept, from the initial enquiry through the attendance and right up to the final album and reprint orders.

I approach all my weddings with a great deal of enthusiasm and verve; giving my all to the creation of a truly individual experience. The style and length of my coverage may be designed specially to your wishes with a mixture of formal, reportage and candid photography or based upon a specific theme. Photography attendance can range from our Essentials Coverage* to photographic coverage of the whole day involving several photographers.

As with all things, style and quality vary and wedding photography is no exception - it is essential to check out as many photographers as possible before deciding who will be entrusted to safely record and interpret your wedding celebrations. I have written a downloadable PDF document with a number of questions brides and grooms should ask photographers; you may find this helpful in making an informed decision - please use the link below.

I would love to hear from you, either via an informal chat on the telephone or we can arrange to visit your home for a no obligations consultation. My consultation option is very helpful to both my potential guests and myself as often a face to face meeting helps everyone understand the day's requirements and any possible limitations there may be. Below is the details of my basic wedding coverage along with other services available.

* Essentials Coverage This is an absolute minimum amount of coverage I would undertake at a wedding and has been carefully calculated with use of my experience at over 400 weddings and takes in aspects of photography that I will not compromise upon and budgetary concerns.
