With so many types of photography out there, you might be slightly confused about what is right for you. My idea of wedding photography is not your usual looking straight at the camera formal style that you may have come across during your search. I whole heartily believe documentary wedding photography is the perfect style to show how you both felt during the wedding. My number one goal is to bring out all that energy & life from the day.

FAQ's

Can I get married on a beach in Dorset?

With beautiful backdrops, a picturesque harbour and coastline, little gems tucked away in the Cliff side, you know your wedding photographer is going to be making the most of the stunning and natural beauty surrounding your big day.

Do Dorset photographers capture the guests arriving at the wedding service?

Dorset wedding photographers are creative and meticulous in capturing every meaningful and precise moment, including the moment the guests arrive, to walking up the drive and then to finding their seats in the venue. It is the moments like these that set the scene for the day ahead and a beautiful way to capture all guests whether that be they arrive on their own or in groups, but a great way for the newly wed couple to remember who was present on the big day.


Do Dorset wedding photographers capture the pre wedding preparations?

Pre wedding preparations are one of the five crucial parts of the wedding day, albeit not always considered as important but are key to ensuring your day begins and continues to run smoothly. Your Dorset wedding photographer will capture the fun, the emotions, and the moments in time to produce stunning pieces of artwork that will retell the tale of two people coming together and uniting their love for one another.

You'll want to choose a photographer who knows the area well and has experience shooting in these stunning locations. Look for photographers who have shot weddings at your venue before, or who have a portfolio that showcases their experience in Dorset.

  2. Consider their style and approach Every wedding photographer has their own unique style and approach to shooting weddings. Some are more traditional, capturing classic portraits and group shots, while others are more creative and artistic, using lighting and composition to create striking and memorable images. Take some time to look through the portfolios of different photographers to get a sense of their style and approach, and choose one that resonates with you.

R3. ead reviews and ask for references Before you make a decision, it's important to do some research and read reviews from previous clients. Look for photographers who have received positive feedback from couples who have used their services. You can also ask for references from photographers you're considering, and reach out to couples who have used their services in the past. This will give you a better idea of their reliability, professionalism, and overall quality of work.

  1. Meet with them in person Once you've narrowed down your options, it's a good idea to meet with the photographers you're considering in person. This will give you a chance to get to know them and see their portfolio in person. It will also give you a sense of their personality and approach to shooting weddings, which can be just as important as their technical skills.

  2. Ask about their packages and prices Finally, be sure to ask about their packages and prices. Most photographers offer a range of packages to suit different budgets and needs. Be sure to ask about the details of each package, including the number of hours of coverage, the number of photos included, and any additional services such as engagement shoots or albums. This will help you compare prices and choose the right package for your budget.

With these tips in mind, you should be able to find a talented and experienced wedding photographer in Dorset who will capture the memories of your big day beautifully.
