Stephanie Colledge Photography Full Description
I have a relaxed style which combines natural images with a touch of documentary, to really show people and personality. All to fit with you and your day. I work with my other half for most weddings, which means you have two people on your day so more candid images and choices for prep photos for both of you. For smaller wedding days I work alone. I include a complimentary engagement session for my Bridebook bookings, so that we have the chance to get to know each other, and work together before your wedding.

Best photographer
April this year steph and Ian photographed my wedding. They were helpful and supportive throughout the whole process leading up to the wedding and during the day. Some of the best photos we received are the casual ones where both ian and steph caught the moments wherever we're laughing and enjoying the day. Preview photos came through less than 24 hours later and full photos were available within 6 weeks which is excellent timings. Couldn't have asked for better service. Would definitely recommend. Thank you

Donna and David’s wedding
Steph was absolutely amazing on our wedding day! My partner does not have much patience when it comes to having photos taken but Steph made it feel so relaxed and fun. It also really helped with the engagement photo shoot where we really got to know Steph and for Steph to see what style photos we wanted for our special day! Steph made our memories of our special day something we can look back on forever with such joy and happiness. We can not thank Steph enough! Highly recommended 😊 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The perfect memories created
We had the most amazing day and Steph and Ian captured this perfectly so we have the most beautiful memories. Not only did we feel most at ease, but so did our family and friends, and just looking through our photos when we received them was a very emotional experience. This is such a special day you just don't want it to end, sadly it does, but having these pictures telling the story of the day from start to finish just helps us relive every part of the day. Having an engagement shoot really helped us get to know each other before the big day, and we felt so relaxed from the get go. I cannot thank Ian and Steph enough, nothing was too much trouble and they were just brilliant.

Professional, reliable and full of laughter.
Steph and Ian were great from the first phone call to the delivery of our photos. Steph offered a package to suit our budget, checked in regularly with us via email and kept to her estimated time frames. We had an engagement/family photo where Steph put us at ease and captured lots of laughter. On our wedding day Steph and Ian worked well together to capture the best images. We’re very happy with what we’ve received. Thank you both!

Amazing photographer who made our memories come to life
We had the amazing Steph as our wedding photographer. From the first meeting at a wedding fayre i knew she was the perfect fit. Nothing was too much trouble. We booked over a year in advance and she was very efficient in keeping in contact in that time and didnt feel forgotten like some of our suppliers. Our pre shoot (engagement shoot) was in the local park which was a bit nerve racking. Steph made us feel at ease like we were the only ones there. The selection from that was great. We worked on those pictures to figure out the style that we liked. Having worked at the venue before Steph was very clued up on all of the best places to get pictures inside or outside. On the day Steph was brilliant. She bought her amazing 2nd shooter - Ian who was full of jokes to lighten any stress that myself or now husband had. They were both very flexible in the timeline and also not making us feel rushed. We even tried a couple of things that were spur of the moment. And with that all the pictures came back as we asked for. From arrival to first dance the atmosphere was great between the two of them. It is true what they say "you spend more time with your photographer than anyone else on your wedding day" and finding the one that blends in but fits in aswell is like goldust and that is what we were blessed with on our day. The selection of photos that we received ranged from candid photos of love and tenderness to beautiful photos of natural laughs and random moments. If youre looking for a photographer who is honest, professional and takes any request into account. Steph and Ian are the ones for you. They were perfect for us and we couldnt have asked for better. They made our day and captured the most loving memories of our day

Natural photos and the most calming photographers
Steph and Ian were a brilliant pair on our wedding day. We were looking for someone who was very relaxed and didnt edit the life out of photo's. Our theme for the wedding was around music and bands, when we found out Steph also phtoographs bands, she seemed like the perfect find for us! From booking Stephanie Colledge Photography on Bridebook, to receiving our photos after the wedding, Steph has always been very responsive and helpful. We had an engagement photo shoot included in our package too. I'm a very anxious person, the idea of a camera pointed at me scared the life out of me but when I met Steph and Ian, they did everything they could to make sure we were both very relaxed and photographed us in the most natural poses. Nothing was every forced, just little guidance here and there. On our wedding day, Steph was a very calming influence, good banter and reminded me several times about breathing techniques along with the most professional photography, really a therapist and photographer in one on the big day! Even the bridal party and groomsmen commented on how comfortable they were to be around Steph and Ian; as though they were one of our guests but so professional at the same time. I cannot stress enough how glad we are to have found Stephanie Colledge Photography. Our photos are natural and perfect, the day was perfect, there is not a single thing we could fault!

Best photographers
I cannot thank Steph and her husband enough for their service. Right from the first contact, through the engagement photos and then to the wedding day, Steph was very professional, supportive and a good laugh which helped me ease as I don't like my photos taken. She was able to answer all our questions, allow us full control of what photos we wanted and how we wanted them. We had a special split package also which suited us better than paying for a full block of photos that we didn't want. Our photos were natural and in my opinion, perfect and exactly what we wanted! Highly recommend!

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

There have been quite a few, mainly due to those couples being so well matched. Reading your own vows - so heartfelt. Lots have surprises, I've had a secret wedding with an evening announcement to guests at a party! An owl flying the rings down the aisle to the groom.....the guests faces :) I've photographed one wedding where everyone cried, including the registrars! The couple (one a music teacher) arranged a surprise pop up choir of their musical guests...who were positioned in different sections of the seating. The initial soloist being joined every two lines with more voices, a stunning experience. I can still shoot with tears rolling, but seeing the registrars wiping their eyes too was a first for me.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, colourful, emotional, fun.

What about your business are you most proud of?

That I am achieving what I set out to do with my photography. That I deliver what I promise.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Take 15-20 mins before or after your wedding breakfast for yourselves - just to be together.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Owl ring bearer - just beautiful. Reading your own vows to each other - amazing to watch, emotional to photograph :))))

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I like to phone or meet first to understand what you would like. When I am booked I stay in touch every quarter and I'm happy to take calls, answer questions etc. Around two months before your wedding I arrange your engagement session, photograph the session and let you know when to expect to see the images. As your wedding gets closer I stay in touch, do venue visits (if its not a venue I've photographed at recently) and confirm details with you ahead of your day.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

I talk to my couples about this - it's different for everyone.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

As I often do engagement shoots, my couples get to know me so I receive some fun requests. One couple wanted a photo of them both asleep in armchairs in front of the big fireplace in their venue..complete with slippers etc..it made a great thank you card to send to their guests.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Enjoy your day, there are plenty of ways to work around wet weather.... and it can make some great images, leave that to me. I've worked with venues who will do whatever they can to help, confetti indoors, clearing spaces I've asked for etc. There are lots of ways to be creative with photos and keep you dry......

Describe how you got into photography.

Really early, my father is a good photographer (he used to photograph weddings) so I was coached. I shot on film for years (still do sometimes) changed to digital and went further into live music and gig photography. Music fans asked me to shoot their weddings - guess what - I found that I love it!
