From the moment of your initial enquiry to the delivery of your photos you can contact me at any time and I will do my best to ensure you are happy with your photography package and answer any questions you may have. I take a deposit up front to secure your date, and the final payment 1 month before the event. Your photos will be with you 4 weeks after the big day via your own online gallery.
I always discuss this with the couple as every couple is different. I want to know what is most important for you and what you want from the day. I may pick my own favourite however from the bunch :)
