It's time to celebrate your engagement with images that capture your unique love story!
Check out my detailed portrait planning guide to get tips on what to wear and how to prepare for your portrait session.
Your wedding day is special so it's understandable why everyone wants to capture it with their phones. Unfortunately, phones can really ruin your ceremony photos. Phones are distracting and can cause disruptions during the ceremony and in your wedding photos.
We recommend that all our couples request a phone free wedding ceremony. Don't worry, we will be there to capture every moment perfectly so no one will miss out on that great photo.
Every wedding package includes a photo release form so you will be able to download and save your wedding images.
If you want to have a phone-free ceremony here are a few tips on how to implement that rule for your guests.
We are here to help you schedule the perfect wedding day timeline that fits your preferences and needs. Explore our two different wedding timeline options below.

You don't have to be stressed about bad weather on your wedding day. I am fully prepared and experienced to handle any weather conditions.
I have shot in rain, snow, and even a during a storm; so don't stress. Regardless of the weather I know how to capture the day perfectly.
In rare instances, a venue may call for a cancelation in extreme weather conditions. If your venue issues a cancelation we will do our best to work with you to reschedule your wedding day. Please review our wedding photography agreement for a detailed description of our cancellation policies.
There's no point to keep checking the weather forecast days before the big day. Our unpredictable english weather is changing all the time, however If your wedding day is looking to be rainy or temperamental, I will be fully prepared and make sure we have plan A, B and C. Most of the wedding venues in Northamptonshire and Midlands I work at have plenty of indoor alternatives for your drink reception and and also beautiful indoor spaces for your formal family photographs.
I deliver full wedding gallery images 4-6 weeks after your wedding date via an online gallery. Normally I will provide a "sneak peek" of images 1-3 days after your wedding just to get you excited :)
Use the share link to send your wedding gallery to friends & family. Please keep in mind they will not be able to download your images without a special download pin number. They will be able to purchase their prints directly from the website.
Add images to your favorites folder and download your files in high or low resolution. Low-res is great for social media and online sharing while high-res should be used for printing.
Please download and save all your images to a safe space on your local computer or cloud storage solution. We only guarantee your online link for 24 months after your wedding date.
