How we actually work
We do not pose you. There is a fifteen-minute window somewhere after the ceremony where we take you somewhere with good light and mostly get out of the way, and that is the entire extent of the direction you will get from us all day.
The rest is documentary. That means we are watching your grandmother’s face during the vows rather than arranging the ring shot, and it means some years you get a photograph you would never have thought to ask for and could not have staged.
You gave us the photo of my dad in the kitchen doorway at 11pm. He died in April. It is on our wall.
What that costs you
Honestly: a few pictures. If you want forty formal group shots with named lists, we are the wrong people and we will say so on the call rather than take your deposit. We shoot family groups, but eight or ten of them, done in twenty minutes.
What you get back
- A gallery of 600–900 edited frames, delivered in six weeks, downloadable forever.
- A six-to-eight minute film with real audio from the day — vows, speeches, the room.
- Every raw speech and both full ceremony angles, uncut, because people ask for these years later.
- No watermarks, no print release nonsense, no upsell on the files you already paid for.
The two hours nobody plans for
By Maya Halloran · 2 March 2026
Every timeline we are sent accounts for the ceremony to the minute and gives getting-ready a vague ninety minutes. Then the day arrives and getting-ready is where half the good photographs live, because it is the only stretch where nobody is performing.
Ask for a room with a window
Not a big room. A window. We would rather shoot a small bedroom with north light than a hotel suite lit by four ceiling cans and a ring light, and we will spend the first ten minutes moving your bags out of frame either way.
Get dressed early
Not for us — for you. Every couple who has finished getting ready thirty minutes ahead has spent those thirty minutes sitting with the people they love, and every one of them has told us afterwards it was their favourite part of the day.
We built in a spare half hour on your advice and ended up drinking a beer with my brother. That is the photo I look at.
- One window, curtains open, overhead lights off.
- Hangers, tags and dry-cleaning bags gone before we arrive.
- Thirty minutes of slack you do not intend to use.
