What We Do
Wedding Photography
Photography is simple. Anyone can press a shutter release button. The skill is knowing when to, and knowing what makes a beautiful image. Our photography has been described as having a natural and art led style and we prefer to work as much as possible with natural light and using the minimum of equipment. This helps us to remain in the background as much as possible, inconspicuous, capturing some of the moments which many would miss; moments which would otherwise be lost to history.
Our wedding packages can contain the following.
Engagement shoot: this service gives us a chance to get to know each other better and gives you the opportunity to get comfortable in front of the lens. This will be crucial in achieving relaxed, intimate shots on the big day. You will be able to purchase images from the shoot. Some couples like to have a large print or a coffee table book created for their guests to sign on the big day. Whatever the the occasion we endeavour to capture it in a relaxed and natural fashion.
Wedding day: We can cover the whole event from the bride getting ready in the morning through to the reception. We will capture images throughout your special day including all the key moments such as exchanging the rings, cutting the cake and the first dance. In addition we’ll take a variety of shots recording the essence of the day and the experiences of your guests, in our relaxed and unobtrusive approach. We will arrange some time with just the bride and the groom for a series of special images to cherish for a lifetime.
Album: In addition to receiving a disc of your wedding pictures and a DVD slideshow, your only decision is which album you would like:
1. Premium quality printed album.
2. Luxury handmade and bespoke album from the world’s finest album maker.
We can also supply a variety of items such as mini albums, parents albums, coffee table books, thank you cards etc. We are happy to tailor our service to your needs so get in touch to talk through your requirements.
Lifestyle Portraiture
The most important thing is that it has to be fun.
Our people photography style is natural and relaxed, using available light (which is usually the sun) and whenever possible shot on location outdoors whether it be on the beach, in the forest, in the local park. Experience has taught us that some folk freeze in the studio, they feel self-consious and tense and this comes over in the images. Getting our clients outdoors, whatever the weather, lets us capture the relaxed shots which you will cherish, shots which display your character. We will let the kids do what comes naturally, climb trees, build sand castles, kick dry leaves… whatever they find fun. We are careful to catch as many of the fleeting, special moments as possible.
The same goes for the adults too; if you want to climb trees or kick leaves that’s fine with us and the resulting images will be stunning.
However there are occasions when studio-based images are appropriate and for these we are able to travel to your home with our portable studio equipment.
