Once you enquire I will contact you via email or phone call and arrange with you the best time for a Zoom call with you and your partner. I will ask about the details of the day you have planned and send over a contract. I will do a site visit at your wedding venue to locate the best spots for photos. a week before the wedding I will check in to see if anything has changed and make a note if so. Then its the big day and I will capture all the memorable moments. You will receive a handful of images the next day via a downloadable link. Then the rest will follow in the next few weeks.
