Up to 15 people Saturday or Sunday
£590 for up to 3 hours coverage
Then £95 per additional hour
But Leah, how do we know how many hours we’ll need?
Don’t worry, I can help you work this out. I’ll need to know a few details such as what time your ceremony is due to start, whether there’s any travelling to factor into the timeline (going from church to reception for example) and I’ll also need to know what parts of the wedding day you’re wanting to have captured. When couples first secure their booking with me, I always encourage them not to book more hours than they need . This is because you can add on hours to your wedding package up to two weeks before the date of your wedding, but you cannot decrease your hourly coverage once I’ve contracted you in for a certain amount.
All hourly packages come with…
My time and guidance on the lead up to the wedding day
No two weddings are the same and so I want to learn all the important information about your day, in advance. Timings of the day and a group photo list is the very basic information I’ll need from you. But if you’re happy to share, I’d love to know more! I’d like to hear a bit about you and the important people you’re inviting to your day. Tell me about the guest who’s travelled from the other side of the world to be at your wedding, the sentimental décor and the little details that make your wedding unique to you. The more I know, the better! I acquire all these details from you by asking you to fill out a questionnaire, which I’ll email to you once you’ve booked. This questionnaire covers everything and will probably make you think of things you haven’t considered yet. Having this information from you in writing via the questionnaire is invaluable to me, because it allows me to spend a day looking through it all, checking timings and ensuring your group photo list will flow smoothly and quickly. Communication between us before the wedding is so important and it’s the only way I’ll be able to capture your wedding, your way.
One photographer (me) and my travel is included within Devon and Cornwall
I won’t charge any additional fees for travel, if you’re marrying within Devon or Cornwall. It should go without saying but my hourly coverage will start from the time I start working on your wedding day (not from the time I leave my house in the morning) and coverage finishes when I finish working for the day, not when I arrive home. If you’re marrying outside of Devon or Cornwall, please check with me to see if any additional charges will be required to cover my travel and/or accommodation. It’s also worth noting that you are booking ME to photograph your wedding. I don’t use associate photographers to shoot the weddings on my behalf so that I can focus on other things or be at another wedding. I’m a wedding photographer not an entrepreneur, and I care about being there for you on your wedding day.
All photos will be professionally edited with care and attention (by me)
So many photographers are now outsourcing their editing to someone else. I do understand the benefits of outsourcing, it frees up a lot of time for the photographer and it often means they can deliver photos much quicker to their clients. But I enjoy the editing, it’s part of my creative process and I want to give my time to you and your photos.
No limit on the amount of photos you’ll receive, plus all photos in colour and black and white
You’ll receive all of the best photos, I won’t hold back. Asking me how many you’ll get is an impossible question for me to answer as every wedding is different - but I always deliver a decent amount, in line with industry expectations. You’ll also have every photo in both colour and black and white.
A private and password protected online gallery, where you can view, share and download your photos
Your online gallery will be active for at least two years after your wedding day and it is a fantastic way of sharing your photos with your loved ones. Just send them the URL link and password and they’ll be able to view all of your photos from anywhere in the world at any time. Let them know the pin code if you want them to be able to download high resolution photos free of charge. There will be no limit to the amount of high res downloads for you or your guests, so you can make countless copies for safe keeping. There is also the option of ordering prints directly from the gallery.
A little gift, from me to you
A wooden heart ornament, personalised with your initials and wedding date. Perfect for a Christmas tree decoration but it will look lovely displayed in your home all year around. I’ll usually post this to you after the wedding, once all of your photos are edited.
And…
I have a tree planted for every wedding booking I take
Being an eco conscious business is important to me, so I pay to have one tree planted for every wedding booking. I’ve used various companies for this over the years, some have been planted within the UK and other companies have planted worldwide. But I’m looking into the possibility of having the trees planted in or around Plymouth, which is my local city.
I make a small donation to charity, each time I am booked for a wedding
I make a £3 donation to charity every time I am booked for a wedding. It doesn’t sound like much but it all adds up and I’m proud to be donating something, rather than nothing at all. The charity I donate to varies depending on the month. Find out more here.
Also…
If you book 5 hours or more
Your photos will be loaded to a wooden USB stick and presented in a beautiful wooden presentation box, with up to 25 randomly chosen 6x4 prints from your day
Or if you’re booking for less than 5 hours, you can add this onto your booking for an additional £70.
This package is for up to 15 people in total. That includes you - the two people getting married. So only 13 guests. If you think there’s a chance you may have more than 13 guests then there will be additional charges. To find out why and what those charges would be please click here.
Optional Extras…
Videography
I have a package deal with an incredible videographer called Powerhouse Videos. We work so well together and have equal passion and dedication to the jobs we do. If you book both of us together we will offer deal for you. Please get in touch to discuss.
A pre-wedding photo shoot
Treat yourself to a photo shoot before the big day for just £150. It’s a great way to get yourselves comfortable with having your photos taken and getting to know your photographer before the big day.
USB and Wedding Box
This is already included in your package if you’ve booked for 5 hours of coverage or longer. But it can be added onto shorter wedding bookings for an additional £70. Your wooden USB stick will be beautifully presented in a wooden presentation box, with up to 25 randomly chosen 6x4 prints from your wedding day.
I am a collector of vintage film cameras and I love being able to take them along to weddings, to capture some timeless images for my couples. I have various Go Vintage packages available, some which include vintage Polaroids too. Take a look at my Go Vintage options here.
