Q. Are you insured?

A. Yes, I have full Indemnity and Liability insurance.

Q. Do you offer midweek and out of season discounts?

A. I have a midweek wedding package with an inbuilt adjustment, however I'm sorry I am not able to offer further discounts but please allow me to explain why. These days many couples choose to marry during the week and these bookings form a large proportion of my work. By discounting these weddings I would be running my business at a loss. In addition, midweek and winter weddings require just as much work as any other wedding, in fact winter weddings require additional skills to shoot, more equipment, and usually an extended editing time.

Q. How many photographers cover each wedding?

A. Most of the time I work alone, but when couples request an additional photographer my assistant Debbie works alongside me. Debbie has worked with me for over 10 years and has a similar style of shooting, similar equipment, and is able to work independently and with confidence. She's also a real 'Girl Friday', and has been known to help with bow ties, sew on wayward buttons, and is a real asset to a day.

Q. Do you take group shots?

A. Yes of course, I view these as an important historical document and something generations of your family will look back at and enjoy. When planning your list, please do take into consideration the time of year and light restrictions, as well as allowing up to 5 minutes (sometimes longer) to set up and take each shot. A good number is around 5 combinations, and no more than 10.

Q. Can I make special photography requests?

A. Yes, definitely! Hopefully you will have hired me because you love and trust what I do, but it’s important for me to know any additional information so that I can produce a collection of images you will love. A month before your wedding I'll ask you to complete my wedding questionnaire where you can make any special requests.

Q.What happens if details change between booking and the wedding?

A. I encourage all my couples to get in touch whenever they have anything they need to discuss. During the pandemic I was able to move with all my clients to their rescheduled dates and as long as the new date is within a year of the original wedding date there are no additional charges.

Q. What happens if you are ill and cannot attend the wedding?

A. I have never, in 13 years, let a couple down or had to cancel coverage due to poor health (a fact I'm very proud of). In the unlikely event that I am unable to attend your wedding, please be assured that I belong to a large network of professional photographers, and every effort will be made to supply you with a photographer of similar style and ability.

Q. What happens if we have to cancel our wedding?

A. I sincerely hope you don’t, but sadly if you do have to cancel your wedding please let me know as soon as possible. As a secure booking prevents me taking other bookings for your date (meaning I may have turned away several other bookings), I am unable to refund your £500 deposit. Late cancellations (outside of government restrictions on weddings) will incur my full fee.
