What is your most memorable wedding?
All of our weddings are memorable mainly because each wedding we do is different. Probably the one that sticks in the mind most, was our first one when we realised we could offer couples something different, something a bit more natural rather than the stereotypical cheesy posed shots.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Natural, creative, personable, attentive, unique.
What about your business are you most proud of?
That's a simple answer; the feedback from our previous customers. Likes on Facebook are nice, but we truly believe providing customer service is a very close second to providing emotive and powerful wedding images.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
A lot of couples ask us what other people have done for certain aspects of their wedding. We always say it's your wedding, you should do what you want to do not what you think you should be doing because others have done it before. There is no right or wrong way to get married!
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
Recently at an Indian wedding the Groom Party had forgotten the Groom's wedding ring. We didn't even think twice about giving him one of ours to use for the day (It was a good job if fitted!). We are happy to go that extra mile.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
We like to take time to get to know you and understand what kind of people you are. We want you to feel special about your big day, not treated just like ‘another’ couple getting married at ‘another’ venue. We’ll be there to help before, during and after your wedding day. We will also take time to meet with you to go through your plans in more detail and also walk round your venue(s) to understand the exciting plans you have for the day. Finally, we'll give you a call a few days before the big day to say hello and to calm any last minute nerves you may have.
What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?
We would never dream of imposing our views on what photograph a couple should take. We will shoot everything they request and also everything that goes on around them, including all the wedding details they've worked so hard to get right.
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
We are mostly asked just to take natural photos and couples seem to trust us, our style and our approach. We don't really do posed shots apart from some formal photographs which we understand many couples want. We much more focus on a documentary approach which couples seem to love seeing the results when we present back their story of their big day from start to finish.
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Rain will not stop play. Like you, we keep an eye on the forecast the week up to the wedding as we want it to stay dry too. Even if it does rain, it’s very unlikely to rain continuously all day. We are flexible and prepared to make the most of the dry spells. We have bridal umbrellas and if needs be will go out in the rain and have some fun.
Describe how you got into photography.
We both met on an advanced photography course many few years ago. We hit it off due to our passion for photography. We are both married and adore our respective families and we all spend a lot of time socialising together (which is mostly spent chasing after our children)!
