Q: If you only take ‘documentary’ photos will you take portraits of us as bride and groom?
A: Of course! It’s one of the most important shots of a couple on their wedding day. Depending on what you want, we’ll find some time in the day to get the classic ‘couple shots’. The guests won’t even notice you’re gone!
Q: We don’t like having our photograph taken, is there any way you can make it less painful?
A: I’m the guy for you! By hiring a documentary photographer you will get just that, I will capture you guys and your guests, in the moment, enjoying the day. I want to be as unobtrusive as I can be.
Q: If you’re based in Birmingham will you photograph our wedding in London?
Sure! I’ve photographed many weddings in London and all over the country. Drop me an e-mail and we’ll talk about your plans and if I’m a good fit as your photographer.
Q: How do we book and pay a deposit?
After an initial meeting where we have a casual coffee and chat if you decide to hire me then I’ll email the terms and conditions and an invoice for the booking fee of 25% of the cost. You can pay by bank transfer and we’re all set, you’ve just booked your wedding photographer!
Q: Are you insured?
A: Yes, I have insurance covering myself and my equipment. I also have backup equipment, two cameras, plenty of memory cards and various lenses if something goes wrong, I’m covered. Let me know if you or the venue need to see my documents.
Q: When will we receive our photos?
A: Ohh, the best bit! I will personally edit and hand over the photos on a USB memory stick in a presentation box around 3-4 weeks after the wedding day.
Q: We’re getting married in Bali, can you photograph it? (This isn’t asked frequently!)
A: I’m already there!
Q: What is your favourite film?
A: Back to the Future (I can quote many, many lines from that movie).
