Any Questions?
Below I have listed some of the more common questions I am asked, if you are looking for the answer to a question not listed below please send me a message and I will be more than happy to answer.
FAQ
Do you shoot destination weddings?
Yes, I am always happy to travel. Please get in touch via the "Contact" section and I can create a bespoke quote for you.
Will you take posed group photos?
Of course, I am happy to take as many as the couple would like. We will talk about how many, who is needed and at what point in the day you’d like these photos in the weeks beforehand, so that I can photograph these as quickly as possible for you. Allowing you to get back to enjoying your day as soon as possible.
How long does it take to get photos back?
This will be anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks depending on the time of year and the volume of weddings photographed. This is standard over the industry. For example the over the summer I am often photographing 3 to 4 weddings a week.
What camera do you use?
For the budding photographers among you, I choose to shoot with mirroless Fujifilm cameras. They’re lightweight, quiet and small, so I can be as discrete and agile as possible in getting those candid images. For the same reason, I turn the flash off (unless it’s absolutely essential). On the day I bring four of these cameras with me; this gives me creative options and saves the day if I anything goes wrong with one of them.
Can I order prints through you?
Yes you can, I provide your photos via a private digital gallery and prints can be ordered through the gallery.
Will I receive colour or black and white photos?
I aim to deliver all your photos in colour, and some in both colour and black and white. As I work through your photos I make a decision based on each image to decide if the image will work well in black and white. If it will then you will get two versions of that photo, one in colour and one in black and white.
Do you use a camera Flash?
For as much of the day as possible I do not use a flash. I feel the images simply look more real and natural without the use of a flash. Also I like to remain discrete and a flash going off is far from discreet. There are parts of the day that may need me to use one such as the first dance.
Do you have a Photography Contract?
Yes, to protect both you as my customer and myself I have a standard wedding photography contract.
What is your photo backup process?
On the wedding day all of the cameras that I use have duel memory card slots. This means that each photo taken is immediately backup in camera to a second SD card.
Once I am back home after your wedding the photos are backed up to 2 separate on site hard drives and 1 off site hard drive. To add a further level of protection the photos are also backed up to a separate cloud storage location.
This system offers the highest level or protection for your images. To date no images have been lost.
How many photos will I receive?
This comes down to your wedding and the number of photo worthy moments. The larger the wedding, the more going on over the day the more photos you will get. You will normally receive between 450 and 650 photos. The average is around 500 photos.
