So congratulations! You’ve just got engaged and have organised an engagement shoot with your photographer. Engagement shoots are a great way to get comfortable infront of the camera and capture some memories you will cherish forever.
But what is the best thing to wear to an engagement shoot? Well think about what this shoot is all about – it’s a celebration of your love for each other and a great way to tell your story. Your engagement shoot should be a fun and relaxing time! Its less informal than on your wedding day so just enjoy it.
What do you wear to it though? Well here are some helpful tips from us: Read more…
Many of the couples who get in touch with us ask how far we are willing to travel to shoot weddings. Although we are based in the small town of Stafford, we have shot weddings all over the UK, traveling as far as the North of Scotland.
Weddings that are over one hours drive away may include extra fees to cover travel and hotels, but these will always be included in the quote we initially provide you with.
If you are thinking about getting married abroad, we would love to hear from you. We are both passionate about traveling and would love to shoot more destination weddings abroad. Read more…
Each of the couples we work with receive a HD video slideshow of some of the best photos from their wedding. These are great to share with friends and family on YouTube, Facebook or Twitter.
Here is an example from a recent wedding we shot up in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The music is from James and Chantelle’s first dance.
This is one of the questions we are being asked more and more frequently… Do we shoot wedding videos? Although we are playing around with video more and more these days, we do it as more of a hobby and thus can not offer it as a professional service on your wedding day. We like to stick to what we excel at and that is wedding photography.
One thing we have offered clients who have asked in the past, is to set up a GoPro (a small professional grade action video camera) on a tripod during your ceremony. GoPros are great due to their tiny size and wide angle of view. We own the latest top of the range Black Edition GoPro which is the same camera that is used to capture action shots in many television programs. The HD footage can then be sent over to you after your wedding.
Please don’t confuse this for a wedding video though. This is not a professional service, but rather is a small gesture to thank you for booking us as your wedding photographers. There is no charge to this extra service and we provide no guarantees as to the results of such a video. Read more…
