This is all the information you should need to know when booking. Please understand that this is intended to clarify and make clear the situation when booking and what you will receive. If you have any questions, please get in contact.
WHAT I NEED:
On a full day booking Me + Second Photographer (if booked) will require a meal and a bar tab of £20. It is a long day and I/we do work hard, and some refreshments and food are needed for us to recharge to carry on capturing your day. We do get hungry and thirsty too.
WHAT I DO:
Weddings
I will capture the day in a documentary, candid, reportage style. Any other requested photographs required other than that of a documentary nature excluding bride and groom portraits, i.e. group shots/specific shots should be written down in detail and provided on the booking form under the section - ‘Photograph requests’. I will work towards capturing these images but on occasion, circumstances will occur out of control that may mean these captures are not possible - for example, weather, over running schedule... etc, but I will try to find an alternative, if possible.
· Full Day Shoot: Images supplied will range between 750 minimum depending on the running order/events of the day.
· Half Day Shoot: Images will be 400 minimum depending on the content of the day.
Please understand that I will shoot a lot of images and will give you the best, figures above are only suggestions and on occasion you will receive more than quoted.
I will not and cannot guarantee to photograph every single person at weddings or events or where there are larger numbers of people. But, I will try to especially the VIPs.
When will you receive your photos?
Editing weddings can take a long time and there sometimes can be a wait for your photos at busy periods. Normally there can be a 6-8 week wait but on occasion turnaround can be quicker but the above figure is a guideline. For smaller shoots there can be less of a wait.
Other Bookings (not weddings)
I will discuss with you what you require and will work within my style to meet your needs. I’m very passionate about meeting my clients’ needs and will discuss with you the best options.
Images quantity on other bookings will vary depending on type of shoot, complexity of shoot but I will capture as much as I can and delivery what I feel to be the best and worthy of being delivered.
BOOKING & DEPOSIT:
Weddings
Date is held on a verbal basis until a booking form has been completed, considered, checked and when the deposit has been paid the date is fully confirmed. Booking form must be completed and returned within three weeks from verbal agreement. A deposit of 30% is required to confirm booking and this is non-refundable.
Other booking (not wedding):
Depending on the nature of the shoot, sometimes a deposit will be requested. I will contact you with details if this is needed.
EXCLUSIVITY:
Weddings
Once booked, I would like and should be the only photographer on the day (unless a second shooter has been requested. I will choose the 2nd shooter and use a photographer that i can entrust to do the job alongside the way that I like to capture your day/event). I would encourage guests to take photos and welcomes videographers, please give details of this - I’m really easy going but would like notice so I can work with whoever else you have booked. This is to make sure we work together to get the best results on the day for both photographer and videographer and you.

I will always work to meet my clients’ needs but I do need to shoot/edit in my style. This applies to choosing locations and poses used in portraits…etc, unless directly requested by clients and agreed with me.
