frequently asked questions

• Can we see samples of your wedding photographs?

  Absolutely! I consider this essential, not only to allow you to form your own judgements of my work, but also of me. You need to feel comfortable with me around, so that I can get the best images. Typically when you enquire about my services, I suggest a meeting at the studio were I can show samples of weddings that I have taken. I encourage all my clients to try and meet me first, but I understand that this isn't always possible if you live a fair distance away.

• I see that you are based in Weymouth - what areas do you cover for weddings?

  I mainly cover the Dorset area, but I have covered weddings in Cornwall, Devon and Hampshire ... and even Milton Keynes without a street map!

• Are there travelling costs if we are not in the Weymouth area?

  Over 30 miles I do have to charge for time and expenses @ 40p per mile.

• Do you charge extra for Black and White wedding photographs?

  No, but shooting my photographs digitally allows me to create a whole host of image enhancements at no extra cost. By default, all my wedding photography is in colour but, at your request, can be converted to pure black and white, or even special effects such as sepia, soft colour and infra red.

• Do you provide proofs for our wedding photographs?

  I provide an 'on-line' proofing service, rather than physical prints. Around a week after your wedding I will post all photographs on my website, in a special gallery (which can be password protected).

• What style of wedding photography do you shoot?

  I mix 2 different styles during a typical wedding. The 2 main photography styles are:

  Photojournalistic (candid) - this will usually dominate my style. I try and keep out of the way of proceedings, and record simply what happens, capturing key moments and emotions. This style is usually very popular with my clients. Typically about 80-90% of my images will be photojournalistic.

  The next style for my wedding photographs is more traditional formal/posed shots - eg all the family shots. When you book me for your wedding, I will ask you to make a list of any special requests you have for group/formal shots, beyond the standard formal shots (eg full-length dress shots of the bride). We may also shoot formal/posed shots at locations away from the main proceedings for the bride and groom.

• Do you shoot more than one wedding in a day?

  No, your wedding will be the only one on that day, so there will be no time pressures.

• What type of Wedding Albums do you use?

  Wedding albums range so much in price, colour and style, that I have decided not to include them in my wedding packages - I prefer to give you the freedom to choose your own. I do have a wide collection of hand-made albums available and a selection of these are on display in the gallery.

• How do I book you for my wedding?

  When you are happy with everything and want to go ahead and book, to reserve a date in my weddings calendar requires a non-returnable booking payment of £300 and a signed contract, which can be downloaded here. I do not 'hold' wedding dates and will only confirm a booking when the form and payment are received. This is the only way I feel I can be fair If I have multiple requests for weddings on the same day.

  I accept wedding bookings anytime, but bear in mind that I am usually booked at least a year in advance for a lot of the Saturday weddings in 'high season', ie July to September.
