Planning a wedding comes with plenty of decisions, and photography is only one part of it.
Below are some of the questions we’re asked most often.
If there’s something we haven’t covered, we’re always happy to talk it through with you.
FAQ
What is your approach to photographing weddings?
Our approach is documentary-led, with an editorial eye.
Much of the day is allowed to unfold naturally. We pay attention to the interactions, emotion, atmosphere and smaller moments happening around you without constantly interrupting them.
When a photograph benefits from direction, we’ll step in. That might mean guiding you during your couple portraits, organising group photographs or making a small suggestion that helps us create a stronger frame.
The aim is simple: beautiful, considered photographs without making your wedding feel like a photoshoot.
Do you give us direction or pose us?
Absolutely — when it’s useful.
You don’t need to know how to pose or arrive knowing what to do in front of the camera. We’ll guide you through movement, positioning and the little adjustments that help a portrait feel natural while still looking considered.
During the rest of the wedding, we’re much more observational.
We know when to offer direction and when to give a moment space.
We feel awkward in front of the camera. Is that a problem?
Not at all.
Most of our couples aren’t used to being professionally photographed, and we never expect you to be.
Our job is to make the experience feel comfortable and uncomplicated. We’ll give you enough guidance that you never feel unsure of what to do, without making things feel overly staged.
The best photographs usually happen once you stop thinking about the camera altogether.
Can we see full wedding galleries before booking?
Yes.
The photographs on our website are intentionally curated, but we understand that choosing a photographer is about more than seeing a handful of favourite images.
If you’d like to see how we photograph a wedding from beginning to end, we’re happy to share relevant full galleries during the enquiry process.
Do you photograph weddings across different cultures and traditions?
Yes.
We’ve photographed celebrations across a variety of cultures, traditions and ceremony styles, including multi-day Asian weddings as well as civil and church ceremonies.
Every wedding has its own rhythm, and part of our preparation is understanding the moments, people and traditions that matter most to you.
That allows us to anticipate important parts of the day rather than simply reacting once they happen.
Do you photograph weddings outside London?
Yes.
We’re based in London and photograph weddings across the UK.
We’re also available for destination weddings and celebrations worldwide, so if your plans are taking you somewhere further afield, we’d love to hear about them.
How many photographers will photograph our wedding?
Depending on the wedding and the coverage you choose, your photography may include either one or two photographers.
There are occasions where having two perspectives can add real value, particularly for larger celebrations, simultaneous preparations, multi-part ceremonies or weddings with a lot happening at once.
Once we’ve finalised our wedding collections, we’ll guide you towards the coverage that makes the most sense for your plans rather than automatically recommending more than you need.
Should we have an engagement session?
You certainly don’t have to, but engagement sessions can be incredibly useful.
They give us the chance to spend some time together before the wedding, help you become more comfortable in front of the camera and create photographs without the timeline or pace of the wedding day around us.
They also give us more freedom to experiment with movement, locations and ideas.
For couples who feel nervous about being photographed, they can be a particularly good way to remove some of that uncertainty before the wedding.
Can we choose the location for our engagement session?
Of course.
Some couples already have a location that means something to them, while others simply want somewhere that fits the kind of imagery they’re drawn to.
That might be somewhere architectural, somewhere green and relaxed, or a London setting with more of an urban feel.
If you’re not sure, we can make suggestions based on the look and atmosphere you’d like to create.
Can we give you a list of photographs we’d like?
Yes — especially when it comes to important family photographs, specific people or moments we may not otherwise know about.
We’ll always talk through priorities with you before the wedding.
For general inspiration, you’re welcome to show us imagery you’re drawn to, but we don’t aim to recreate another photographer’s work frame by frame.
Your wedding should still be photographed in a way that feels personal to you and consistent with our own perspective.
What happens if it rains?
We adapt.
Good wedding photography isn’t dependent on perfect weather, and some of the most atmospheric photographs can come from conditions that weren’t part of the original plan.
We’ll work with the light, venue and surroundings available to us and make sensible decisions around timing.
If there’s a break in the weather, we’ll make use of it. If there isn’t, we’ll find another way.
A wedding day doesn’t become less meaningful because the forecast changes.
How long will it take to receive our photographs?
We take care with every gallery and don’t rush the editing process.
Your final delivery time will depend on the time of year and the scale of your wedding, and we’ll always give you a clear expectation as part of the booking process.
Where included within your collection, we may also provide a small selection of preview images while you wait for the complete gallery.
How will we receive our wedding photographs?
Your finished photographs will be delivered through a private online gallery, making it easy to view, download and share them with the people closest to you.
The exact products and inclusions that accompany your gallery will depend on the wedding collection you choose.
We’ll explain everything clearly before you book, so you’ll always know what’s included.
What happens if you’re unwell on our wedding day?
Reliability is something we take seriously.
As a husband-and-wife team, we already have an additional layer of support built into the way we work, and we also maintain professional relationships within the wedding photography community.
In the unlikely event that illness or an emergency affected our ability to photograph your wedding as planned, we would do everything reasonably possible to make sure you were supported and appropriate cover was arranged.
How do we book you?
Start by sending us an enquiry with your wedding date, venue or location if known, and a little about what you’re planning.
If we’re available, we’ll talk through your plans, answer any questions and help you understand which coverage would suit your wedding best.
Your date is secured once the booking process has been completed and the required booking payment has been received.
Still have a question?
If there’s something we haven’t covered, or you’d simply like to tell us what you’re planning, we’d love to hear from you.
