Weddings
On the Day...
Here is one structure of how the day unfolds, but talk to us if you have different ideas, or thoughts, as we’re completely adaptable around you – after all it is your day!
Generally, we will arrive with the bride up to an hour and a half prior to the ceremony. A second photographer stays with the girls, while Chris goes on to meet the boys at the ceremony venue.
Usually, a second photographer will take pretty getting ready shots and be with the Bride until the service. Meanwhile Chris will take relaxed photos of the boys and guests arriving. We then join back together taking various unobtrusive shots during the ceremony from two key angles (confirmed with you, your vicar, or registrar before hand).
You can choose to have a small selection of formal shots. This is completely optional but usually nice to formally remember the day. These can be taken immediately afterwards, or at the reception. In which ever order, we’ll capture the excitement of the day as all the guests chat with you – both from a far and closely - capturing mingling chatty moments.
At some point during this time, we will take you away to get some private shots, where you can usually catch a breath, and say hello to each other.
After this, mingling, social shots continue until you sit down for your wedding breakfast, which of course, includes lots of photos of your guests too. We remain as relaxed, and friendly as possible to blend in and become an integral part of your day.
We tend to pop off while you enjoy your meal – grab a bite to eat, upload photos, and let people enjoy their food without the risk of being photographed mid way through eating!
Afterwards, we’ll come back and document speeches, cake cutting, etc. We’ll capture the events throughout the evening until after the first dance, giving you a fully documented day from start to end – but we’re afraid we don’t stay for cleaning up duties!
Please do get in touch if you’d like further information.
