There’s no story quite like yours.
Let’s talk details
your wedding story holds so much value
IT MAY BE JUST ONE DAY – BUT IT’S THE MOST MEMORABLE ONE!
Long after the flowers have wilted, your dress has been hung in the back of your wardrobe and the last of your champagne has been drunk, your wedding photographs will be all that remains. Our memories fade, but images help keep them alive. They truly are an investment.
Why me? Because I won’t ask you to fake reapplying your lipstick for some lifeless images mimicking what you’ve seen on Instagram. Nor will I disrupt your guests by transforming your day into a photoshoot. I’ll capture the moments naturally, as they unfold—raw, genuine, and full of beauty amidst chaos. How you felt is more important than how you looked.
This is what is included
ONLINE GALLERY & SLIDESHOW
A private way to view and share your images (expires after 2 years – there is an option to extend for a small fee). Access to my store to buy prints, products, and albums.
IMAGES EDITED IN MY SIGNATURE STYLE
All images are individually edited in my signature style. Adjusted for brightness, colour, and given a slight cinematic grading to make them pop.
PRINT LICENSE
Full rights to print and use your images. You just can’t sell them or use them for commercial purposes! (And ask nicely that you don’t stick filters over the top of my images, after all the hours I spend editing them)
TRAVEL COSTS
Included in my packages for venues within 1hr 45m travel from York. For venues outside that radius, I charge a flat £300 fee to cover travel and accommodation (up to 150 miles/ 3 hours away). Getting married further afield, or even abroad? I love to travel. Get in touch for a bespoke quote.
PRE-WEDDING CONSULT
6 weeks before your wedding we sit down via a video call to discuss the timings and details of your wedding day, and you can update me on how your dog is doing
TERRIBLE DAD JOKES
Shakespeare, eat your heart out. These come as standard, there is no extra charge. If you love a pun, we’ll get on beautifully.
