Initial Consultation

This is offered free for local couples, no obligation. This is an important chance to meet face to face, to discuss arrangements and explore album requirements. As a follow up you will be sent a bespoke quote. When you are ready to make a booking for your chosen date, a non-refundable deposit of £200 is required.

Engagement Shoot

A pre-wedding shoot, typically an informal session where we get to know each other better before the day of the wedding. This can take place in the home or on location. You will be given a pair of prints at your choice of 10" x 8" or a print with wide mount for wedding guest signing.

Taking the Photographs

SWPPDuncan Astbury is a member of the SWPP, Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers.

Second Photographer

Having a second photographer in attendance gives a greater variety of photographs and catches more of those candid moments. Booking early for this add-on option is recommended to ensure availability.

Prints

In addition to the album, prints can be made from your choice of the proof photographs, individually edited, finished in your choice of colour or black & white and printed at a professional photo lab. These can be mounted, framed or made into a canvas.

Digital Negatives

You can get additional prints and albums made up on request, as above, but if you would prefer to have your own copy of the photographs to use with a license for unlimited personal use and including the option to make your own prints then the photos can be supplied as full-size high resolution images (on DVD or USB Key), in jpeg format.

Shoot the Dress

The wedding day can be over quickly and you don't always have as much time as you might like to relax and enjoy it. This add-on option offers a seperate shoot that can be arranged on a convenient date and gives you the chance to get dressed up again and be photographed on location without the pressure of guests and timetable.
