I split my time between Bury St Edmunds and Tideswell, so I'm ideally located to cover East Anglia and the Peak District... and lots of other places too! If your wedding is further afield, then that's not a problem for me - we'd just need to consider any necessary travel / accommodation expenses in the package price.

I shoot weddings in a classic documentary (also known as reportage) style. This captures the subjects (i.e. you and your guests!) in the most authentic way possible, and ensures that you can enjoy your big day with minimal interference from me.

In terms of the specific "look" of the final images, I prefer a natural, timeless style of editing. I want the photos to be a truthful reflection of how your wedding looked on the day... plus, there's no better way of making a photo album look dated than by editing every shot to match this month's most popular Insta filter! For a sample of edited photos, please have a look at my Portfolio.

Of course! Most couples like to arrange a selection of couple and group shots, featuring their nearest and dearest - I'm more than happy to accommodate this.

Don't panic - the vast majority of people feel uncomfortable having their picture taken by someone else, so a big part of my job is putting you at ease so that I can capture you at your best. As mentioned above, I prefer to shoot discreetly, so that you don't have a camera in your face all day long! (Full disclosure: my main motivation for being a photographer is so that I can hide safely behind the camera!)

Absolutely - however you're celebrating your wedding, I'd be honoured to photograph it for you! Please just let me know what you have planned, and I'll do everything possible to do it justice.

Well, my wife says that they are... but it's your opinion that matters most! Have a look at my Portfolio and see if you agree!

We'll meet before the wedding day to discuss your requirements, so that I can get to know you and get a real feel for how to capture your wedding at its finest. If, for any reason, I feel that I can't deliver what you're requesting, then I'll be honest and tell you.

Ahead of the big day, I will visit (wherever possible) and research your chosen venue, so that I'm familiar with it and know the most photogenic spots. For more info, feel free to read my How to book a wedding photographer blog.

Experience, good quality equipment, and the knowledge of how to use it... I've been a photographer for over 20 years, and have attended many courses and workshops to improve my skills during this time. I also have a robust and reliable workflow, for example:

• I will have multiple camera bodies and lenses with me on your wedding day, in case any stop functioning (unlikely, but it has happened to me!).
• My cameras simultaneously record all images to two separate memory cards, again to provide backup and redundancy in case of card corruption.
• Image files are stored on two separate hard drives, and also backed up to cloud storage.

Yes, if you opt for my Ultimate Package then this includes a second photographer for the day. If you prefer my Premium or Essentials package but really want a second shooter, then that's fine too - please just let me know, and we can arrange it!

I use Sony full frame mirrorless cameras, and Sony GM lenses - these offer exceptional image quality, reliable performance and robust build quality. The exact lens selections may vary from one wedding to another, as some venues may require wider-angle shots, or lenses that are more suitable to low-light conditions.

When editing photos, I use a colour-calibrated monitor to ensure accurate colours in the final images.

No, I'm afraid not - I specialise in stills photography only.

Yes! Many couples like to have an engagement shoot, so that they have some beautiful images to use for the wedding invitations and/or social media. As well as this, it's a great opportunity for you and me to get to know each other before your wedding, which ensures that we hit the ground running on the day itself.

Absolutely! I offer anniversary shoots for couples celebrating 1-100 years together, so please get in touch if that's of any interest. Also, I won't judge if you fancy a photoshoot even if it's not your anniversary!

Yep, I can do that too - just drop me a line and we can arrange it!

As part of my Ultimate and Premium Packages, I provide a "highlights selection" of 20-25 edited images within 48 hours of your wedding. However, it takes time to review and edit a large number of photos to a high standard, so it usually takes 4-6 weeks to produce your final set of photos. As soon as the images are available, I'll share them with you via a private online gallery, where you can view and download all your beautiful shots!

All photos are shot in RAW file format to maximise image quality and dynamic range, but are delivered to you as edited JPG files. This ensures that the final set of images are colour-corrected and well-exposed, and in a file format ready for you to print and/or share on social media etc.

I'm afraid not; the RAW files are a part of the process, not the end result! I shoot my RAW files in a certain way, knowing how I will later process them into the final JPG images. As a result, the RAW files themselves will look flat and often underexposed, and I only want you to enjoy the images at their very best.

Reluctantly, yes. Feel free to follow me on Instagram, and please tag me if you're sharing any wedding photos that I take for you!

Once we've established exactly what you require from me, I'll provide you with a contract to confirm everything. When you've reviewed and signed this, I'll issue an invoice for an initial 50% payment - this is a non-refundable deposit that guarantees your booking. The balance will be due two weeks before your wedding day.

I own the copyright on all photos that I take, but grant you a licence to use them freely wherever you like. You're welcome to use them on social media or to make prints / albums from, without any restrictions. The only things that you're not permitted to do is pass them off as your own work, or sell them for profit.

At the moment, I offer a printed album as part of my Ultimate Photography Package I also plan to introduce a print-on-demand service, which will make it easy for you to send your favourite images straight from your private gallery to my recommended print lab - watch this space!

Yes, I have full public liability, professional indemnity and equipment insurance coverage.

Yes, I have a clear DBS check.

I was hoping you'd ask that! Yes, of course; please just contact me and we can discuss further...
