Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION

Are you insured?

ANSWER

As fully qualified members of the Master Photographers Association we have full public liability and professional indemnity insurance.

QUESTION

How long are you there on the day?

ANSWER

We will arrive as early as you would like but normally this is about one and half hour before you are due to leave to go to the ceremony. We have two coverages – the first has us attending until you sit down for your wedding breakfast (the reception meal). If the speeches are first we will also photograph them. For the second package we will stay until after your first dance.

QUESTION

I would really like to see what my partner gets up to on the morning of the wedding. Will you photograph their preparations too?

ANSWER

Absolutely. One benefit of there being two of us is that we can be in two places at once and before the ceremony we will split up and cover both sets of preparations.

QUESTION

I have my own ideas for my photography – can you do these?

ANSWER

We are always happy to get your input and ideas and we will help realise your vision for your wedding photography.

QUESTION

How many photographs will we get?

ANSWER

There is no limit to amount of photographs we take. On average you will receive 600 to 900 or more fully edited and retouched high resolution digital files on a beautiful personalised and packaged USB device.

QUESTION

What happens if you fall ill on the day?

ANSWER

We are both capable of shooting a wedding on our own but we will always have a second photographer on standby. Also as we are members of two professional bodies we can call on their support systems for help in these circumstances. We also have reciprocal arrangements in place with other photographers we know who can help in the unlikely event that one of us cannot attend the wedding.

QUESTION

Can I use the images on Facebook?

ANSWER

Yes. We will even supply you with low resolution versions for that very purpose! All we ask is that you mention us in your post and provide a link to our website.

QUESTION

How long does it take to receive my images?

ANSWER

Your fully edited retouched images are normally ready to view in approximately 4 to 5 weeks. Initially they will be uploaded to our secure online client gallery for you to see. At the same time your USB will be ready to collect.

QUESTION

Is it OK for my guests to take photographs?

ANSWER

Of course. It is your wedding after all and we are more than happy for guests to take their photographs and we will even offer advice if asked

Do you photograph weddings anywhere in the UK?

ANSWER

Yes. Although the majority of the weddings we photograph are at venues around the North East of England and North Yorkshire we are happy to travel any where in the country and even abroad if required.

QUESTION

Do you supply wedding albums and framed prints?

ANSWER

Yes. We have large selection of the highest quality wedding albums and framing products to suit differing tastes and budget. There is no obligation to purchase a wedding album but if you wish to. you do not have to make a decision on your album choice until after the wedding.
