Professional creative modern and contemporary engagement and pre-wedding photography

The pre-wedding portrait session

 

This usually takes place about 6-10 weeks before the weddingand is an important part of your wedding photography booking.
It is so important, that you can't get out of it!
We get to spend an hour or two at the beach, or at a country park or somewhere special to you.
I photographed Gareth and Kathryn on the top of a fell in the Lake District where Gareth asked her to marry him - it nearly killed me just getting up there! You can see the results on my BLOG

Yes, you get a beautiful framed photograph from our time together, but the most important thing is that we get time walking and chatting about your wedding, taking some photographs of the two of you interacting and having fun.

So, come your BIG day, we're NOT strangers, you know the way I work and that 95% of your photographs are going to be natural and spontaneous.

There's no surprises, I'm there for you as well as for your parents and you can just get on and have a fantastic wedding, confident that I will capture all the fun and the ambiance and the details so that when you come back from your honeymoon you have a wonderful, relaxed record of the biggest day of your life!
