PREPARATION
Once booked I will;
1Visit the couple 1 month before the wedding to go through photographs required, meet immediate members of the family and bridal party and discuss any special needs.
2Double check all information regarding the church, reception venue, addresses and times. Around the day of the rehearsal, I will do a run through from the house to the church, to the reception venue.
3I will, on the way, check for suitable and special areas where group shots and individual "special" shots can be taken.
The style in which I shoot a wedding is a mixture of traditional with a more journalistic style. In other words, I will capture the day as I see it with the important set-up shots taken as and when it is suitable.
I try not to interfere or get in the way and basically just get on with the job.

On the Day
I like to go the extra mile and capture as much as I can from the day including (if required) the following;
1Bride and parents/bridal party getting ready at house
2Bride leaving the house
3Groom and best man waiting at church
4Arrival of the bride
5Service
6Leaving church and confetti shots
7Special location shots with the couple
8Reception including toasts, cutting of the cake, first dance and speeches
Obviously there are many more including family groups and children etc, but these are the basics. Along the way I will capture the more reportage style shots such as guests waiting, arriving, drinking, chatting, laughing and general "as they happen" shots.
I shoot entirely digital using high end professional equipment. The images are of the highest quality and will easily print up to A1 or 34 inches on the longest edge with exceptional clarity.

Image Preparation
Once the images have been taken, I spend whatever time it takes per image to ensure that they are bright, crisp, clean and colorful. Any bits of rubbish or unwanted artifacts such as signs or litter are professionally and unnoticeably removed to make the best of the shot.
All images are available in either Color or black&white. Any special requirements such as sepia toning, montages or anything that your creative side desires can be done on request.

Prices
Prices vary as each wedding is different. As a general guide;
For a full day from the bride getting ready to well into the reception (8-10 hours) - $2,495. Extra hours at $200 per hour
This will include;
18-10 hours photography
2Bride and Bridal party getting ready at home
3Groom, best man and guests arriving at church
4Bride arriving at church
5Ceremony
6Group shots and reportage style shots of guests and wedding party
7"Somewhere special" where we take the bride and groom and /or wedding party somewhere for some more intimate photographs
8Cutting of cake, speeches and first dance
9Evening reception in full swing
1040 prints at 9" x 6" or similar
11DVD Slideshow of approximately 80 images with music hosted online to show absent family or friends (Hard copies available for TV and computer viewing)
12Digital imaging of every file to remove stains, litter etc
13Approximately 300+ low resolution images/proofs in color and black and white (600 in total)
14Plus all images on DVD at high resolution in both color and black and white for you to print/share as you wish.
If your day is somewhat different or you wish to "tailor" the photography yourself, the best thing to do is to meet to discuss any special requirements and receive a separate quote or simply email me.

Extras
As well as the standard prints, people are increasingly looking to expand on just the album prints.
Also available are;
1Canvas-Bonded Prints - These are beautiful and look amazing on any wall. They are available up to A1 in size, stretched, wrapped and mounted onto a wooden frame. Maximum price is $495 for an A1 or 34" x 24" print.
2Extra DVD Slideshows - Available for $150 each.
3Wedding Books - Rather than the traditional albums, all prints can be made into a beautiful, stylish and unique designer paperback or hardback book (10" x 10") containing up to 200 glossy images and given in a beautiful presentation box. Prices and different sizes available on request.
4Proof Album - A popular way of having the entire day in print is to have 300 images from the day laid out in order in a proof album (as long as the day is long enough for me to get 300 shots or more). These are all 6" x 4" for a total cost of $375.
Any other requirements you have for your wedding photographer are available on request.
