Frequently asked questions

Once you've decided you'd like me to photograph your wedding, a £250 booking fee secures your date and takes it off my availability.

The remaining balance can then be paid closer to the wedding.

I'm based in Dunmurry, Belfast, and photograph weddings throughout Northern Ireland and Ireland.

I'm also happy to travel further afield. I've even photographed a wedding in Florida, so I'm always open to an adventure.

For weddings further away, we'll simply discuss any travel requirements when we chat.

My full-day coverage typically starts with you getting ready and continues through to your first dance, usually around 8–10 hours.

The idea isn't to keep you away from your guests all day for photographs. I'll be there throughout, quietly documenting what's happening and stepping in when needed.

Your final gallery will typically contain around 400–700 fully edited photographs, although every wedding is different. I prefer to deliver a considered collection that tells the story of the day rather than simply chasing a number of images. text goes here

Absolutely.

Before the wedding, you'll have the opportunity to tell me about the people, moments and photographs that are particularly important to you.

I'll use this to make sure the important things don't get missed, while still leaving plenty of room for the unexpected moments that happen naturally throughout the day.

I don't want you spending your wedding working through a huge shot list. You enjoy the day — I'll keep an eye on the details.

We get on with it.

Rain doesn't mean the photographs stop. In fact, some of the best photographs can happen when the weather doesn't quite cooperate.

I'll adapt to whatever the day gives us and make the most of the conditions, whether that's outside in the rain or finding somewhere indoors with great light.

Your finished gallery will normally be delivered within 6–8 weeks of your wedding.

During particularly busy periods this can vary slightly, but I'll always keep you informed.

You'll receive your photographs through a private online gallery that you can easily share with family and friends.

Your gallery is more than just somewhere to view your photographs.

You'll be able to download your high-resolution images, share the gallery with friends and family, and order prints, canvases and other products directly through the gallery.

I don't provide RAW files.

Your gallery contains the fully edited, finished photographs that represent the style and standard of my work.

I take the security of your photographs seriously.

I photograph weddings using dual camera bodies and dual memory cards, meaning your images are recorded to two cards as I shoot.

Once the wedding is finished, your images are backed up across multiple storage locations, including local and cloud backups.

It's a quiet part of the job that hopefully you'll never have to think about — but it's important to me that your photographs are properly protected from the moment they're taken through to delivery.

There's no fixed rule, but popular dates can book well in advance, particularly during the summer months.

If you've got your date and venue confirmed, it's worth getting in touch sooner rather than later. If your date is still a way off, you're welcome to enquire too.

Yes.

Not every wedding needs full-day coverage. If you're having a smaller celebration, city hall ceremony or intimate wedding, my Intimate Collection is designed specifically for shorter coverage.

If you're not sure what would work best, just get in touch and we can talk through your plans.
