Wedding Photographer Service Details

From hairdo and make-up to the Grand Entrance at the ceremony.

For many couples, these are amongst the most important pictures. We always offer this service and include it in all packages.

We also provide a Lingerie/Glamour session on request, but we won’t offer this unless you ask for it and we don’t mention at the consultation in case the bride wants to do this as a surprise for her fiance.

We will attend the Reception or Wedding Breakfast of course, to capture both candid and formal images of the day. We like to come to the Rehearsal, too.

The Rehearsal gives us a chance to assess lighting and facilities, meet the Minister, Priest or Celebrant, and get to know the Bridesmaids and Groomsmen.

Being a familiar face on the Big Day often helps to get more relaxed and natural pictures.

Dressings, Grooming and mastering those nerves. The men don’t take as long to get ready, but they usually have a bit of fun doing it!

An optional extra for some, but we have always believed that these will be as important to families in later years as the Bridal Pictures.

We often assign a photographer to work with the Groom and Best Man, especially if there is a lot of travel between where the Bride and Groom are getting ready.

The anxious Groom, the arrival of the Bridal Party, the vows, exchange of rings, the first kiss...

Or perhaps you have something else in mind: whether it’s a traditional Greek wedding or a Sikh, Muslim or Jewish celebration, or whatever is right for you, we can adapt to the traditions and requirements of your Faith.

Civil, non-religious, non-traditional and other Celebrations can all be readily accommodated by our Team.

I always work with at least one assistant photographer to ensure that the formal and casual record of your Wedding is complete. Often an extra assistant will be present for larger gatherings or where the Groom and Bride are getting ready at distant locations.

All our Assistants are skilled photographers in their own right and will supply many fine images for your album. However, as Principal Photographer, your wedding photography is my responsibility and my reputation rests on your satisfaction. Besides, shooting a wedding is too much fun to delegate to someone else! (David Rich)

All images are shot in RAW format to ensure maximum quality and detail. They are backed up from the cameras to a portable hard drive regularly throughout the day and to a second hard drive immediately after the shoot. A third copy is kept off-site for additional security, and all picture files are kept for at least a year in case anything happens to your own copies. This is a free service to protect your wedding memories.
