FAQs

  • My style is best described as cinematic, driven by the emotion of the moment or the specific goals of a business. I tailor my approach uniquely to each project, whether it’s a wedding, a personal event, or a business campaign. This customisation ensures that each client, couple, or business achieves the desired outcome and sees their vision come to life in a way that resonates deeply with their audience. My focus is on capturing authentic emotions and aligning with each project’s purpose, making each job truly one of a kind.

  • Yes, I provide both photography and videography services across a variety of projects, from intimate weddings to large-scale corporate events. Many shoots require a unique approach for photo and video, as each medium captures different details and aspects of the event. Feel free to reach out if you’re considering a combined photo and video package; I’ll let you know whether your project can be bundled or if additional creators might be necessary to achieve the best results. This flexibility allows me to ensure each format stands out and meets your expectations.

  • The editing process will be fully discussed with you before we begin the project. Editing time and cost are based on several factors, including the complexity of the shoot, the amount of footage or photos, and whether we’re working on a photo or video project. I’m happy to explain how each step of editing will enhance your project and outline a realistic timeline tailored to your needs. This collaborative approach ensures that the final edits reflect your vision and maintain high-quality standards.

  • Yes, I am available for shoots in various locations and am happy to discuss any travel requirements for your project. Travel costs are factored into the pricing based on location, the duration of the shoot, and any special logistical considerations. Whether you need a local shoot or a destination project, I’m prepared to bring my cinematic approach to your chosen setting, ensuring that we capture the essence and uniqueness of the location.

  • My pricing is typically based on the unique requirements of each job, as every project brings its own set of challenges. Factors like the time of day, complexity, required equipment, and any additional creators needed are all considered in the pricing. This ensures transparency and allows me to provide an accurate quote that reflects the scope and quality of the final product. If you’re interested in learning more, I’m happy to discuss specific details and create a package that suits your needs and budget.

  • It’s recommended to book as early as possible, especially for popular dates such as weekends, holidays, and wedding seasons. For larger projects or events, booking at least 3–6 months in advance ensures availability and allows us time to discuss your specific requirements in detail. This helps ensure we’re fully prepared to capture your vision with the attention it deserves.

  • Alongside capturing high-quality photos and videos, my goal is to make the experience enjoyable and relaxed. I bring an approachable, easy-going personality to every shoot, which helps clients feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. Some shoots are just as much about having fun as they are about the results, creating natural, authentic moments. For more formal, professional projects, I bring a high attention to detail and precision, adapting to the style that best suits each client and project. My flexible approach ensures that we get the most out of the shoot in a way that feels right for you.

  • Absolutely! I welcome any input you have, and I encourage clients to share their vision with me. You’re welcome to request specific shots or poses, and if you have any reference images or videos that capture the style you’re after, feel free to share those as well. Reference material can be a great way to communicate what you’re envisioning, allowing me to understand exactly what you’re looking for and incorporate those ideas into our shoot.

  • Flexibility is a key part of my approach. If unforeseen circumstances arise, such as unfavourable weather or a change in schedule, I’m ready to adapt and make the best of the situation. For outdoor shoots, I can suggest alternative locations, reschedule to a more suitable time, or discuss other ways to ensure the best possible results. Please note that if a shoot needs to be cancelled and isn’t rescheduled, deposits will be retained to cover time spent on planning and booking, but I’m happy to work with you to find a new date that fits your schedule.

  • Yes, I offer high-quality prints specifically for landscape photos. For all other work, I deliver files either online or on a USB drive, giving you the flexibility to print the photos you love most in your preferred sizes and formats. This approach ensures that you can choose exactly how you want to display and enjoy your images, whether in an album, frames, or digital displays.

  • Yes, editing requests can be accommodated within reason. Feel free to ask about specific edits, whether it’s minor adjustments, like colour correction, or more involved changes, such as adding family members to a photo. Keep in mind that complex edits may come at an additional cost due to the time and work involved. I aim to bring your vision to life while maintaining a realistic and high-quality final product.
