What couples actually want to know

The real deciding points

Most couples are not really asking for a “package.” They are trying to work out whether the photographer is consistent, calm, clear on pricing, good with travel logistics, and able to make the day feel natural rather than staged.

  • Are full galleries consistent? Not just the highlights.
  • Will the photography fit the pace of the day? Not slow it down.
  • Is pricing clear? No vague surprise extras.
  • Is travel handled cleanly? Especially for destination weddings.
  • Are delivery times realistic? And is the final gallery strong from start to finish.
My approach

Documentary first, with clean direction when needed

I photograph weddings in a way that keeps the day moving. You get the real moments, strong portraits, clean editing, and a gallery that feels coherent rather than overworked.

This page is here to answer the practical questions. If your wedding has unusual logistics, multiple days, or several locations, send the outline and I’ll tell you what coverage makes sense.

Section 1

Booking and pricing

Start here if you want the practical bits first.

A typical booking includes wedding day coverage, careful editing, a private online gallery, and full-resolution files for download. Coverage can be expanded with extra hours, a second photographer, pre-wedding coverage, a welcome dinner, a rehearsal dinner, or multi-day photography.

Section 2

Coverage and the wedding day

These are the questions that shape the actual photography.

That is usually enough for me to tell you whether I’m available, what coverage makes sense, and how I’d approach your wedding.

Section 3

Destination weddings and travel

Travel should be simple, not vague.

Section 4

Style, delivery, and privacy

The last practical questions before people enquire.
