Company Description

The wedding photography is quite an informal style that allows your own personality to come through in the pictures rather than the more traditional starchy, posed photography.

The wedding photography packages in this price list have been carefully devised to enable you to choose the album and frame that you prefer and order it at the time of booking, (apart from the budget D.V.D & unmounted prints packages). You’ll then know exactly what you will get and how much it will cost. We are then able to customise the photography for you.

Martin undertakes only one commission a day ensuring the very best attention. He is joined at the wedding by a second photographer (subject to availability) & in some cases an assistant. The second photographer shoots mainly candid & informal images, while Martin concentrates on the slightly more formal posed shots. All dedicated photo time is kept to the absolute minimum, outside the church may be something like ½ an hour. We do not shoot the old fashioned formal groups now concentrating on covering the wedding far more informally. We will shoot parents, bridal party, and wherever possible a group with everybody shot from a balcony or upstairs window. It is possible to shoot some specific small groups that you yourselves will specify.

Wedding day coverage starts at the bride’s home before attending at the church or venue.
Then the reception we would normally expect to be there until you are starting your main course. We would be only too pleased to arrange an appointment for you to visit and view the albums & framed prints and to discuss your requirements. As many photos are taken on the day as necessary to cover the wedding properly & fully – all shot entirely digitally. There are no restrictions on number whatsoever (see terms and conditions) from which you choose the relevant number to be mounted into the album. Every album in this price list will be supplied in a presentation box, enabling them to be kept in perfect condition. Within the package you will also receive a framed print & depending on the package you choose maybe “thank you” cards, bridesmaid folio(s) & concertina folio(s) & Keyrings. Attendance at the bride’s home before the service (if required), church, reception and another location for “romantics” are all included in the package.
The proofs will be supplied on D.V.D, in 2 forms, as slideshows these are split into bite size chunks (home, church, reception etcetera) & can even have your own choice of music.
And “proof” overprinted thumbnails (small jpgs) You will also have the option to have the images uploaded to a web site, where family & friends can view & order reprints from anywhere in the world. All of the order forms you require are on the disc as PDF files.
A quality leather album & a framed photograph of your choice are included in the package price. (Apart from the C.D & unmounted prints packages).
There are no hidden extras whatsoever.
