DESTINATION WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY ON FILM

I manage all bookings through a CRM and I have an automated workflow for each wedding that guarantees a smooth experience. When you reach out to me, I recommend a discovery call as a first step to get to know each other and have a chat about your wedding and photography vision. After that, I will put together a quote (or more than one) that you can review. If you accept it, I will issue an invoice and agreement. The payment schedule is a 25% retainer when you book and 75% 30 days before the wedding. Reminders are issued automatically by the booking system.

Yes. When you receive a quote from me, that's the final price that includes all of my expenses and there will be no added costs at any point unless you purchase extras later on. Taxes are also included.

A second photographer can be very useful in some situations. For example, when you want some extra digital photos whilst I focus mainly on film, when you and your partner are getting ready in two different locations. When your guest count is very high (100+). When you’d like different angles of the ceremony and reception to be captured (from a balcony, from the ground). Ultimately it comes down to personal preference and available budget.

Depending on film developing times, how busy I am during the wedding season and how many digital photos require editing, waiting time varies but you are guaranteed to receive your full gallery after a maximum of 12 weeks.

For a full day wedding (10 hours), you can expect around 500 high resolution film scans, mainly shot on 35mm film and some on medium format 120 film. You can purchase extra packs of film (5) if you’d like more. I will deliver some digital photos as well and the number varies according to wedding size, coverage length and whether there was a second photographer or if I was working solo.

By default, I like to keep things as natural and spontaneous as possible. This means reserving some time for portraits but with reduced intervention and letting you express yourselves. If you’d like to have some editorial inspired photos, I recommend planning them ahead of the wedding and I will gently guide you on the day. However, every couple is different and some prefer more direction whilst others none at all and exclusive focus on candid moments. I will make sure to discuss this with you ahead of your wedding.

Yes, I have worldwide coverage for all of my equipment as well as public liability. Make sure to check with your venue if they require a certificate as I will be able to provide it if needed.

I am always happy to recommend trusted vendors that are part of my international network. I offer photography related advice when planning your wedding day and if you are eloping I will assist you in developing an itinerary for the day. I’m afraid I can’t contact vendors on your behalf.

I don’t offer this service at the moment - my hands are already full! I only shoot analogue and some digital photographs. If you are looking for a videographer for your wedding or elopement, please let me know as I am able to provide recommendations in various regions, including super8 and camcorder video specialists.

Yes but this is not always guaranteed. Drones are not always permitted to fly due to local laws and restrictions as well as the weather conditions on the day. If I can fly, aerial photos will be a nice addition to your gallery.

Yes, but please note that I take a limited amount of weddings yearly with online sharing restrictions and once I have reached my quota, I will not be able to accept any more.
