We’re awkward with photos

This is something we come across regularly with couples, our years of expertise have enabled us to have no issues creating a comfortable atmosphere for all of our previous couples that felt awkward in front of a camera.

Travel time between locations

If you have a fair distance between your getting ready locations and venue, this does take away from the time we get to take your photos.

Enquire about additional hours.

Refunds & cancellations

As per the legal contract you sign when you book with us to capture your day, you are legally agreeing to forfeiting your deposit should you regretfully cancel your wedding or cancel your booking for any reason. This is a strict industry standard across all wedding suppliers. As much as we sympathise with those who must make that decision we have held that date and aren’t guaranteed to book it again. We understand this can be frustrating although we do ask you to thoughouly read the contract upon booking to avoid disappointment. Postponements, if you work with us willingly to choose a date we’re available we can hold your deposit and transfer it to the new date. Postponements that are rescheduled for a date we are not available will lead to your deposit being forfeited.
