F.A.Q’s

Here is a list of my most commonly asked questions. Please get in touch if you need answers to anything else. How do we secure a booking?  A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your wedding date. I’ll send out the contract with an initial invoice that I will email to you once you have decided on how much coverage you would like and I have confirmed I can make your date! Once the deposit is paid I’m all yours. I do work on a first come, first serve basis and this means that I don’t hold dates in till the deposit has been paid.  Do you travel?  I am based in Lewes, East Sussex but I love to travel so tell me where you are getting married and we can chat about travel arrangements. It would be an extra for anywhere outside of Lewes for which is charge 0.45p per mile. How many photographs will I receive?  I get asked this a lot and it really depends on a few factors. Normally I would say that per hour I photograph you will receive 70-100 edited photographs.  What happens if we need to reschedule?  I hope that if this happens I can accommodate your new date and make it as stress free as possible for you. I have a section in my T&C’s around this so you know where you stand when you pay the deposit.  Do we need to provide a list of the photographs we would like on the day?  I have a pre-wedding questionnaire which I will send you before our first consultation. It does not ask for a shot list but instead asks you to tell me what the most important parts of the day are to you. I do not work with shot lists as I shoot in a documentary style and would find sticking to a list would not allow me to work in the way I do. I do however, need full details of who you are having in your group photographs! Can I have all the photographs from the day?  The editing and selection process is part of what I do. I have never had a couple ask for the unedited photographs after receiving their digital album and this is not something I would offer.  Will we meet before the day?  Ah it is so important that we meet before the day. I meet you at the venue, where possible, and spend a few hours going through the pre wedding questionnaire as well as walking around the venue and discussing the set up. If you are unable to meet then the next best thing is FaceTime.  We do not like to pose, can you offer any advice?  A lot of couples worry about this leading up to the day and after a few clicks of the camera the worry melts away. It’s my job to make you feel at ease and I am all about capturing those real and relaxed moments so would never ask you to pose in a way that would seem unnatural or make you feel uncomfortable. Most of the most beautiful moments are captured when I’m testing the lighting! To prepare you for your day I’ve created some tips which you can have a look through here.  Do you offer micro packages?  Yes! Many couples love just having a few hours photographed and this is absolutely something I do. Everything else remains exactly the same just the time. Do my guests have to pay to download the photographs?  I work slightly differently to some photographers. The price you pay is the final price. You get all your images which you can share with friends and family + print etc… I send this to you on a digital album which you can download and this is what you share with whom you want. The albums stays online for a year to give everyone a chance to download etc… I don’t charge per photograph or watermark images for you or your guests.
