YOUR QUESTIONS

What photography collections do you offer?

I offer a number of all-inclusive wedding photograpy options, each one tailor-made to suit your wedding. Some collections have a luxury wedding album included as part of the fee which is always the best value way of having a wedding album.

My service can include thank you cards, guest books, additional coverage, extra photographers etc. Call me for a chat and we can work out what you need.

Is it always you behind the camera?

Yes. I’m not into subcontracting and will always shoot your wedding myself and you are getting a photographer with over 17 year experience and 500+ weddings photographed Also one of the most highly qualified UK wedding photographers holding 3 Fellowships from the professional photography associations

I really can’t stand posing. Is that a problem?

Of course you don’t. Posing doesn’t come naturally to anyone and actually doesn’t make for the best photographs.  I prefer a natural, sincere style of photography and am very good and bringing that out in others.

Do you have a second photographer?

Much of my best work from weddings has  come from when I have worked alone and having over 500+ weddings under my belt I’m very used to working the whole wedding solo.

I do, of course, however have the option to bring a second photographer along with me should your wedding  require it, for example very large wedings or weddings which require bride & groom prep in seperate locations.

I have a select handful of hand-picked professional wedding photographers that I call upon giving me the option to select the right photographer for you.

Do you have a preorganised list of group shots?

If you need a few formal shots to keep the mums happy, then I do have a handy list. I do recommend no more than six group shots, though, as stopping the whole wedding for endless group photos can be really disruptive. I’d go with:

 

  • Bride & groom with bride’s family
  • Bride & groom with groom’s family
  • Bridal party (you with your groomsmen, ushers, bridesmaids and flower girls)
  • Bride with her girls
  • Groom with his boys
  • One big group shot
What equipment do you use?

Iuse the latest professional Canon mirrorless digital cameras and professional lenses designed to shoot to a very high quality even in low-light conditions. I also carry backups of EVERYTHIUNG on a wedding day!

What about my HiRes digital images? How long do they take to arrive?
I don’t really subscribe to the old school philosophy that you are beholden to your photographer to purchase everything you want directly from them. I’m happy to provide you with a copy of the high res digital jpegs from your day after they have been edited (this is usually around 30 days after your wedding). You’ll also be sent a high quality USB with the files on it 4-5 weeks after the wedding.

 

Can I make my own prints or not?
Of course. Those digital files are yours to keep to do with as you see fit. There is, of course, quite a difference between a print you make at your local Boots and those that my professional lab can print for you. But it’s entirely up to you.

 

 

Do you travel?

Absolutely! Have passport, will travel. Do just check my availability if your venue is particularly far away. Also, anything further than 60 miles away from OX17 3PH Kings Sutton in Northamptonshire I do ask for a 40p per mile contribution towards fuel. Should an overnight stay or flight be involved I do ask that those are reimbursed as well, but such things are not actually as expensive as you might think so do ask.

Do you shoot video too?

I fundamentally believe videography and stills photos require a very different approach from each other and are a different  shooting and editing skill/set.

I have now partnered with a wedding videographer I have worked with for many years and am now pleased to say that I can now offer a HYBRID Photography/Videography Collection with myself concentrating 100% on Photography and the other person concentrating 100% on Videography & audio.

Please get in touch for more details

Food on the day?

Yes, please. I will need some hot food at some point if it’s not too much trouble. Photography is hungry work, after all.

Can we meet before we book?

Of course, I’d be be delighted to invite you to my studio in Kings Sutton nr Banbury OX17 3PH (conveniently close to J10 off the M40) to meet you and have a chat about your requirements. I tend to meet with clients in the week after work but I can accommodate daytime appointments as well if that suits you better.
Naturally, this being the age of technology, we can also meet via Zoom and you can book a Zoom call with me at a time to suit you HERE 

You sound wonderful. How do we book?

Please return a completed booking form and signed copy of David’s terms and conditions wedding agreement, plus a retainer of £500 to reserve your wedding date. Once I’m booked, I’m booked…
