WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY SERVICES
A beautifully finished wedding
album is a priceless reminder of a unique event.
Having a professional photographer attend your wedding is
more than just a means of recording the event but should
capture the joy and excitement of the day and should not be
too obtrusive or time consuming.
When photographing a wedding we are normally accompanied by
an assistant, who will, with the help of the Best Man or
ushers organise the groups so that the photo-call can run
smoothly and quickly.
Depending on the size of the wedding and the type of
photography required the time allocated for photographs
should be between half an hour and one and a half
hours.
By enlisting the help of some members of the wedding
party, group photographs can be arranged quite quickly
without having to wait too long for each group to be
organised.
Generally we work to a photography list that includes all
the the traditional group photographs and any that have been
specifically requested.
During the day we will also take some informal photographs if requested although for some of our wedding photography services, informal or "reportage" photographs are an integral part of the service.
We also offer a service whereby an additional photographer attends all or part of the day to take informal photographs in colour or black and white.
Below are comprehensive details of
various wedding services to suit a range of budgets and
requirements. These are for guidance only and can be
tailored to meet specific requirements.
At the bottom of this page there is

Some of your
questions regarding Wedding photography may be answered
below.
Please don't hesitate to phone or email with any other
questions.
01 Who
will be photographing my wedding?
Unless otherwise agreed David along with an assistant
will be the photographer at your wedding. We do have two
other qualified and experienced photographers who cover
weddings for us during busy periods mainly at Langtons House
in Hornchurch but also cover other venues. Our photographers
are trained in our style, method of working and adhere to
our same high standards of photographic excellence.
02 What happens if David or our photographer is ill on
the day of our wedding?
As well as having photographers who work for us we can
call on the assistance of a number of local professional
wedding photographers.
03 What happens if we want to cancel our booking?
The first thing we require is a letter / email
confirming that the booking is to be cancelled. The booking
deposit is non-refundable.
04. Can we change the date of our booking?
Yes, subject to availability. To transfer your booking
we require written confirmation and a non-refundable
transfer fee of £30 to cover administration costs.
05. How long does the photo session last on the day?
It depends on the type of wedding service you have
booked with us and the type of photography you require. The
photo-call for smaller weddings would be half an hour to
forty five minutes. For some of our larger wedding services
the photo-call would be between an hour and fifteen minutes
to two hours.
We provide a photography shot list for all our wedding
services which lists the group and family photographs we
would take and any additional photographs you require.
We are always pleased to take any additional requests on the
day, but by working to a list we can keep the photo-call
running smoothly.
06. How long before we see the pictures after the
wedding?
We photograph using professional digital SLR cameras and all
photographs are taken using RAW format for the best possible
quality. Shooting in RAW format requires anything from 4 to
16 hours post production and preparation after which the
photographs are proofed onto photographic paper at our
laboratory. Depending on work load with us and at our lab,
proofs are normally ready between one week and ten days
after your wedding.
07 How many photographs will I have to choose from?
This depends on the photography service you have chosen.
The amount given for each of our services are normally a
minimum and we would generally supply more. For photographs
of smaller groups, for example bride and groom with parents,
we may supply one full length and one half length
photograph. We normally take a number of photographs of each
setup so that we have the flexibility to take out the
photographs with eyes shut or unfortunate expressions.
08 Can you supply proofs and prints at our reception?
We certainly have the equipment to be able to do this,
but do not offer this service as this would require taking
photographs in "Jpeg" format which we believe is inferior to
photographing using RAW. It would also require the use of
either an inkjet or dye sublimation printer, which again we
believe is inferior to photographs printed on traditional
photographic paper.
09. Can we have any Black and White pictures?
Some of our photographic services include your choice of
Black and white or colour photographs. Our smaller wedding
photography services as standard are in colour, but we can
convert photographs to black and white for a small
additional cost.
10. Are there any hidden extras costs?
All prices are fully inclusive of photography, album
(depending on the service chosen) and local travelling.
11 Are you a full-time photographer?
David is a full time professional photographer and
videographer and also teaches photography part time. Any
photographers or videographers who work for us may not be
full time professionals but are qualified and
experienced.
12 Do you have Insurance.
We have full Public Liability to 2 million pounds,
Professional Indemnity and Employers Liability.
