Micro Wedding Photographer

I offer flexible packages so feel free to ask me about extra time to capture your family and guests relaxing and letting loose on the dance floor – some of your favorite images can come from this time!

You might be wondering “Do I need two wedding photographers”?

A second photographer is essential if you’d like groom as well as bridal prep photos if you’re both getting ready at different locations.

However, if you are both getting ready at the same location, I may be able to split my time between the bridal preparation photography and the groom prep. It’s important to remember that any time taken with groom preparation photography will reduce the amount of time available for bridal prep. We would need to discuss this during your wedding consultation.

It’s vital that your chosen wedding photographer has backup equipment. Not only do I have a backup camera, but also backup lenses, lighting, memory cards – in fact, everything.

Fortunately, professional camera equipment is very reliable these days, but if it does fail you can guarantee it will be when you are exchanging your vows, or during the first dance.

It’s also important to note that backup equipment must be of an equivalent professional standard to your photographers’ main camera and lenses to ensure that all of the images you receive after the wedding have the same professional quality. So, make sure that the photographer you choose has this.

(I have, unfortunately, experienced equipment failure whilst photographing a wedding. Importantly, because I had backup equipment, I was able to continue taking photographs as if nothing had happened.)

I won’t be sitting with your guests to eat my meal – a ‘supplier’ meal from the bar in a separate room (nothing fancy) would be plenty and hugely appreciated.

I’ll make sure to finish my meal in time to capture the speeches and toasts!

I’ve never missed a wedding through illness to date.

If, for example, you are getting married in Maryland, DC or abroad there would be an additional cost for travel and accommodation. This could be included in my overall pricing or separately as you prefer.

It’s no problem at all.

However, your friends have come to the wedding to be a part of your celebration. If you ask them to step up to the mark, it will be very stressful. They’ll miss things. It happens.

Investing in the services of a professional photographer means some key things:

You, your new life partner, your guests, everyone – will be able to relax and enjoy the day.

There will be stunning photographs that have captured every single special moment.

The iPhone camera packs some amazing technology. However, it’s no match for the abilities of professional camera equipment in the hands of an experienced photographer.

Yes, they are fully edited to look their best for you including skin softening, eye enhancement and more where appropriate.

Yes. I have public liability insurance, professional indemnity insurance and equipment insurance.

Unless we have agreed otherwise, I might post some of your photos on social media or on my website.

This is often how engaged couples decide if they like my style and would like to have a wedding consultation (if you haven’t checked out some of my photos yet, please view my Portfolio).

The ‘golden hour’ is that magic time of the day shortly after sunrise or before sunset, during which daylight is warmer and softer than when the sun is higher in the sky. This provides an opportunity to get some beautiful photos in a very flattering light.

I can let you know when the golden hour will be on your wedding day so that we can plan some gorgeous photos of the two of you at that time into your wedding day timeline.

There’s no guarantee of great weather and hence a Golden Hour, or you could be getting married in December, so it’s important that we’ve also planned an alternative time on your day to get some photos of just the two of you.

When back home, I back up your wedding photos in multiple locations: a separate external hard drive that backs up my entire computer, a RAID enabled (makes two more copies simultaneously) external hard drive and an additional separate backup into the cloud in case of fire/flood.
