Further Considerations
Travel costs
We will photograph your wedding anywhere in the World. If you have taken the chance to look at some of our customers weddings, you will see we work all over UK and overseas. For weddings within 45 mins driving time from the photographers home, travel costs are included in the above prices. For weddings that are further afield all travel costs are quoted and agreed at the time of your booking.
Wedding albums
Gone are the days of having a huge brick of a Wedding Album filled with 30 or so pages of formal shots that cost a fortune and is currently gathering dust in your parents attic. Today the style is much more contemporary with many clients wanting a 'coffee table magazine style album'. Furthermore, with the rise of many on-line album manufacturers the cost of these albums have been dramatically reduced.
We do not supply wedding albums as part of our packages having taken the decision to separate the cost of Photography and the cost of Wedding Albums. We do this because lots of couples want to control costs and have the option of creating a Wedding Album themselves. In order to do this, what they need is perfectly edited images which is exactly what we provide. We may do 1 or 2 albums every year for clients that want one but dont want to do it themselves.
If you are thinking about doing your own Wedding Album we would recommend using the online album manufacturer called 'MyPublisher'. We have used MyPublisher to produce some sample Wedding Albums and their print quality and colour re-production is fantastic.
Wedding Photobooth
Why not add a bit of extra fun to your wedding day by adding the 'Photobooth' - We set up lights, a black backdrop and have a box of party props for dressing up. Once all the serious photos have been taken why not have some fun ones too as shown in the photos below.
