Q. Why have an engagement / pre wedding shoot?
A. I believe this is really important! It’s a very informal and fun shoot at a location which means something to you. By the end of it, you will have relaxed in front of the camera, and I will have learned how best to photograph you on your wedding day. It’s essential for anyone who is nervous about being photographed. Once you’ve seen the results from that shoot you’ll have no fears or worries left about the photography part of your wedding day. I promise

Q. How many pictures will you take?
A. How long is a piece of string? Seriously though, I don’t have a fixed number. I will often take 800+ pictures at a wedding. The amount taken is dependant on a number of factors e.g. weather conditions and the amount of available time between the ceremony and the reception for example.
