Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most common questions I get from couples and families.
If you don’t see your question here, feel free to get in touch — I’m always happy to help!

FAQs

Where are you based? do you travel?

I am based in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. I often travel outside Lincolnshire and photograph weddings and families around the UK and beyond.

Can we book consultation before I book you?

Yes, of course. We will schedule an online meeting to chat and get to know each other before you make your decision.

How far in advance should I book?

Weekends fill up quickly, especially during wedding season, so it is best to book as early as you can. For weddings, 12 months is ideal.

How much your packages do cost?

Wedding packages start from £895. Family photography costs £375. Get in touch via my contact page, and I can send you all the info.

how many photos will I receive?

Every engagement, wedding, and family session is unique and different. Engagement and family session galleries typically include 40 to 50 images. Wedding galleries can range from around 200+ photos for an intimate celebration to 600+ for a full 10-hour day, and can go up to 1,000 images for larger weddings for an entire day (10+ hours) with a second photographer.

How long will it take to receive our photos?

Most galleries are delivered within 3–6 weeks, depending on the type of session and the season. I put a lot of time and attention into the selecting and editing process to make sure that I only deliver the best to you. I will also send a sneak peek within 1 week of your wedding.

How we will receive our photos?

Engagement and family photos will be shared via an online protected gallery system called Pixieset. The wedding gallery will be shared via an online gallery and will also be provided in a USB together with complimentary prints when the Classic or Lifetime collection is booked. For intimate weddings, only an online photo gallery will be provided.

do you offer 35m film?

Yes! Every engagement and family photoshoot is captured on film. I also include 35mm and 120mm film on the wedding day, which is usually 3-5 rolls.

how can I book you?

Use the contact form and write down all your questions, and I will be back in touch with my pricing and availability within 24 hours.
Because I value quality over quantity, I only book roughly 15 weddings each year. This allows me to fully invest in every couple and provide the best service before, during, and after the celebration. The more details you provide in your first message, the better I can understand if we are a perfect fit.

Do you require a deposit to secure the date?

Yes — a small booking fee is required to secure your date, with the remaining balance due closer to the session or wedding. For weddings, a non-refundable holding fee is £250, and for family photography photoshoots, a non-refundable holding fee is £50.

I don’t see my question here. how can I contact you?
