Q. Do you do a pre-wedding site visit?
We like to make two trips to your chosen wedding location if at all possible. The first, approximately one month before is to take a walk around the location to look for suitable shooting areas and to introduce ourselves to the Minister, Vicar, Registrar, Wedding Planner etc. The second, generally done on the day itself, is to have a final check to make sure the location hasn't changed since our last visit.
Q. What albums do you supply?
We use some of the main manufacturers of wedding albums. Our selection is extensive.

Q. Are our guests allowed to take their own photographs?
We work together with your guests and always allow a little extra time for your guests to take their own photographs. We make a point of involving them and working with us and have never had any complaints. All we ask is that they let the main photographers get the shots first.
Q. Why do you have a pre-wedding meeting?
The pre-wedding meeting is a critical part of our wedding service. We get together with the Bride and Groom, generally a month before the big day, and discuss what photographs are required, we find out what shots YOU want taken. We know that each and every wedding is different and unique; you simply cannot have a standard list of shots that are taken on the day. This is usually the day the final payment is made and approximately 4 weeks before the wedding.
Q. Do you have a choice of wedding packages?
Each wedding is unique and different and we want to give you a good choice of packages that suit your photographic needs. If you need something a little different, just ask.
