Frequently Asked Questions

What are your rates?

Just head over to my Packages & Pricing page and if you can’t see something your after then reach out via my Contact Page. I'm not the cheapest photographers out there but I promise you I don’t mess around when it comes to producing the highest quality work for my couples. After all, these are some of the most important memories of your life and you want to invest in someone who’s willing to pour our their heart and skills for you.

What should we look for when choosing a wedding photographer?

Style, personality, and whether you'd actually want them around all day. Look beyond the curated highlight reels — ask to see full wedding galleries so you can see how they handle a whole day, not just the golden-hour portraits. Then trust your gut. You're spending more time with your photographer than almost anyone else on your wedding day, so the vibe has to be right. 

How many weddings are you taking on each year?

In the beginning, I took on as many as I could. I quickly learnt that I gave a piece of my soul to the devil when I did that. Although I was able to deliver everything, I felt like I did not give my couples or my family the best of myself. 

As of right now, I only take on a total of 20 weddings/elopements a year. This way, I can invest in everything that I do. That way, I can be there for my couples. That way, I have enough time for self-care, mental health days, and quality time with my family.

Do you photograph LGBTQ+ and same-sex weddings?

Always. The alternative scene has always made space for people who do things their own way — and that's exactly the kind of wedding I'm drawn to. Whether your ceremony is soundtracked by The Cure, you've both got more tattoos than the average wedding party combined, or you're just two people who never wanted the traditional version of any of this — I'm the photographer for that day. No assumptions, no awkward energy, just someone who genuinely wants to tell your story the way it actually happens.

How do we book you?

After looking through everything in my portfolio and website, give me a shout via my contact form and tell me as much as you can about your day. I’ll get in touch with you guys so we can get to know each other. I’ll make sure to provide all necessary information and our honest opinions so you can pick the best package for your wedding.

A £500 non-refundable retainer fee for date reservation and both signatures are needed to reserve your date. The rest is due 6 weeks prior to the event date. If you want to break that total down I can offer flexible payment terms.

Do you offer engagement shoots?

Yes — and they're genuinely worth doing. Most people feel a bit awkward in front of a camera at first, which is completely normal. An engagement shoot kills that off before your wedding day so by the time it actually matters, the whole thing feels natural. Check your package to see if one's included, or just drop me a message.

How many photos will I get?

Roughly 50 photos per hour is what I work to. However, each wedding is unique in its own way and I always make sure to capture plenty of photos for each moment of the day. 

I also don’t cap at a certain amount of photos. Quality is always over quantity and I aim to under promise and overdeliver. 

Do you deliver RAW photos?

I don’t ever give out RAW photos. Every photo you receive will be edited to ensure consistency in colours, brightness, and mood.  

What’s your turn around time?

I aim to delivery your gallery within 6 weeks of your wedding day but in busy wedding season that my stretch to 12 weeks. If that is the case I'll let you know that I'm swamped with work and that I'm meticulously working on the best version of your wedding story. 

Do you photograph elopements and micro-weddings?

Yes — and honestly, some of my favourite days have been the stripped-back ones. No 200-person guest list, no military-precision schedule, just you two doing it exactly how you want. Whether that's a beach in Brighton, a pub back room, or somewhere completely unexpected — if it feels like you, it works for me. The Sound Check Package is built specifically for smaller celebrations, so it doesn't have to cost the earth either.

Do you Photoshop your clients?

From day one, my photography has always about celebrating love and authenticity. I share photos of all my couples no matter how they look because we want YOU to know that YOU are beautiful because we are all unique and different and important. 

I won’t photoshop you taller or skinnier. I won’t photoshop the scar on your forehead that is a part of your identity. I won’t photoshop to alter what is real and true for you.

I often photoshop out temporary blemishes like bruises and acnes. And of course, I will always ask which is your “favourite side”. I do Photoshop out unsightly items from photos I think will you may wish to put on the wall or in your album.

How do we receive our photos?

All my collections come with digital delivery as standard. I will upload it to a password-protected online gallery and send it to you via email. You can share the link with friends and family so they can see these photos. You can also download the whole gallery to your computer. Couples who add albums onto there package will get a proof copy of the album before I send it to print as well as the online gallery. 

What rights do we have?

You have all rights to download, print, and use your photos for personal purposes. Photos come to life when printed, if you need help with making an album or wall art, give me a shout!  

How do you choose between colour and Black & White?

You maybe able to tell but I have a major love for black & white photography! In my editing process each image starts life as a black  & white image and I'll only add colour if I think it adds to the context, mood, feel or story of the image.  I feel the balance of your gallery always works out to be one third B&W and two thirds colour but every day is unique. 

Do you photograph weddings in Brighton & Hove?

Absolutely! Brighton & Hove is my home turf, and I love capturing all the wild, wonderful, and non-traditional love stories this city has to offer. Whether you’re saying “I do” on the beach, in a quirky venue, or somewhere totally unexpected, I’m there for it—camera in hand, ready to tell your story.

What makes your wedding photography style different from traditional photographers?

Think of me as your mate with a camera, not some random lurking in the corner. I get to know you before the big day, so when your wedding rolls around, I’m part of the crew—not a stranger pulling you away from your guests. My style is all about capturing genuine moments, not endless posed shots. You’ll spend more time on the dance floor and at the cocktail hour, less time grinning awkwardly for the camera.

Do you offer albums and prints?

You bet! I’ve got a range of products available right in your wedding gallery store. From gorgeous albums to prints you’ll actually want to hang, everything’s designed to last longer than your post-wedding hangover.

Are you insured to work at all Brighton wedding venues?

Definitely. I’m fully insured—including public liability—so you and your venue can relax knowing you’re in safe hands. Plus, I’ve worked at loads of different spaces around Brighton & Hove, so I know my way around.

Do you have backup equipment for our wedding day?

Always. I carry multiple cameras, backup lenses, and enough batteries to outlast even the wildest Brighton wedding. Your memories are safe with me—no tech fails here.

Can you provide drone photography in Brighton?

If the weather’s on our side and the venue allows it, I’m licensed and ready to get those epic aerial shots. Drones are like the cherry on top—just ask if you’re keen!

How do we book you for our Brighton & Hove wedding?

It’s as easy as dropping me a message or filling out the contact form. From there, we’ll chat, vibe check, and make sure I’m the right fit for your day. No pressure, just good vibes and honest advice.

Do you photograph weddings across Sussex and the South East?

Brighton is home base but I cover the wider Sussex area, London and beyond. Travel within 50 miles is included in every package as standard — further afield, will incur £150 travel fee.
