Weddings and civil partnerships.
A sensitive, subtle and romantic approach -
❖ Wedding photography is about sensitively re-telling a story that's filled with romance, emotion and sometimes drama. Having wide experience of the documentary approach to photographing one-time events as they unfold, I will be in the right place at the right time to catch the personal details as well as bringing creativity and spontaneity to the big scene events.
Weddings have become as individual as the couple involved and a lot of creativity goes into the planning of the day: it's always a pleasure to be part of this process and to have responsibility for documenting it for the future.
One thing I will promise you - I will never take over the proceedings (unless asked to!) and I'll never keep everyone standing around waiting and getting bored.
My prices are purposefully kept to an affordable level, because I don't want to be exclusive; having said that, price should not be your biggest consideration. The most important thing is that you love the pictures and that you feel a connection with the photographer - you'll be looking at the photographs long after you've forgotten what they cost, although you'll hopefully remember who took them!
I keep things straightforward by offering my time at a standard hourly rate and you can book me for as long or as short a time as you wish, although I also offer a range of flexible packages for those who prefer them. After you have viewed the results in a password protected part of the website, you can order prints from an award-winning lab, have everything put onto a dvd, choose exotic display mounts or we can put our heads together and design a beautiful album. If you are working with a fixed budget, we can discuss the choices available and come to an arrangement that is tailor made for you.
There is an extended portfolio of wedding photographs on my specialist site www.yorkweddingphotography.co.ukwhich you are very welcome to view. If you like what you see, are wanting a highly professional, yet personal and flexible approach, do get in touch so that we can have a chat.
If you are also looking for suppliers of other wedding services, I can recommend www.weddingsinyork.com where all the businesses listed have been personally selected.
Lastly, I cannot not include an appreciation that I recently received -
"Thank you for being so amazing on our wedding day. Seeing you in the churchyard when I arrived with your huge, warm smile was just lovely. All our guests thoroughly enjoyed your very presence! You were a joy to be around. You did exactly what you promised - you didn't take away from the reception and allowed us to have time with our guests - perfect. Most of all, I need to send you a massive hug for settling D's nerves at the church!!! He said you really settled him down and that's above and beyond your fee and we're both very grateful. All in all, you were an absolute star and I would gushingly recommend you."
