I am based just outside Chester in Ellesmere Port. My packages include travel within 50 miles of Chester, but I am happy to travel further afield. To make sure it's an affordable and easy experience for you, I am more than happy to discuss and send you a customised quote before booking you in.
Believe me, you are not alone! Why do you think I stay behind the camera? ;-) I promise you have nothing to worry about. I am completely nonjudgmental and will never ask you to do anything that makes you uncomfortable. At the end of the day, what I'm looking for is authenticity in your photos. I want you to feel relaxed and be yourselves. Most of my photos are candid so you won't even know I'm there for the most part, and any portraits will be taken in a fun, relaxed way. I use prompts to bring out natural emotions!
A little rain never hurt anyone. And it won't get in the way of your special day or the photos we create! Clear umbrellas can make for fun portraits and add another dimension to your photos. There are always undercover areas we can utilise and as long as you're happy to roll with the punches, I am too! A little wet hair and romantic kisses in the rain can be super cute anyway.
I like to keep as fit and healthy as I can, but none of us are completely immune to bugs and viruses! So, in the unfortunate event that I am too unwell to photograph your wedding, I will do my utmost best to find a replacement. I have a list of talented, reliable local photographers who would step in at short notice.
Absolutely! I have 2 camera bodies, 2 flashes and several lenses, so that in the unlikely event any were to fail I have a back-up. I also carry additional batteries, chargers and SD cards.
I will send you a sneak preview within 48 hours to keep you sweet! My turnaround for the final gallery is between 4-6 weeks. During busy times this may be a little longer but so far my galleries have all been delivered in under 4 weeks.
To put it simply, no. When you hire me, you are not only trusting me to take your photos but also to edit them in a way that is true to my signature style. It is important to me that my editing style stays consistent and represents my brand.
