The Wedding Photo Checklist

How to get the wedding photos you really want!

You're probably thinking - "Do I honestly need a wedding photo checklist?" The answer is a definite yes, but you don't need a list in your pocket all day, thats my responsibility and I know exactly what you're hoping to see in your wedding photographs.

I have a standard shot list which I have set out below, but I'm more than happy to take direction from clients, particularly if there are key elements or people you want to get a special shot of. Just let me know.

Engagement / Pre-Wedding Shoot and Framed Print

A pre-wedding shoot is a fantastic way to get comfortable being photographed in a more relaxed environment and get some nice shots to take away. This can be done at a location of your choice - somewhere of significance or anywhere with an interesting backdrop.

You will get all photographs from the shoot within as a digital download and the best of these photos can be displayed at the wedding as a framed and mounted print that can be signed by guests.

£150.00

Wedding Albums

Wedding albums are a fantastic way to remember and enjoy your wedding day for years to come. Individual prints are great, but an album tells the story of your day and becomes a timeless piece of family treasure to be enjoyed again and again.

There are several wedding photography albums which I would be happy to show you.
