Hi and thanks for looking at my site

​

My aim is to photograph your Wedding Day and capture the emotion and story of the occasion.  If you like the look of my work, please contact me and we can discuss how I can meet your needs and which package is best for your day and budget.

​

2025 Wedding Photography Pricing and information

​

I offer the following  Wedding Packages priced as below. I have found that the 3,4 or 5 hour packages are often enough for couples that are looking for a value photography package that covers the main  part of the day but I do have a limited number of  6 or 8 hours packages but only at Local venues. Please look at the two split hours packages below as they offer great value if getting married in Darwen.

​

The prices include travel within 15 miles of Darwen, a meeting in person or telephone to discuss your photography requirements and edited, high resolution, watermark free images supplied on a digital download gallery as well as a quality USB stick as well.

I am flexible over timings and when we meet to discuss we can work out the best options for your ceremony and budget.

​​

​

£400- 3 hrs coverage is ideal If your wedding is at one location then this could cover groomsmen photos, bridal party arrival, ceremony, family formals, shots of the happy couple and a fake cake cut.

​

£500- 4 hrs coverage -As above but if you want a little more time for photos either side of the ceremony  then this is a better option.

​

£600- 5 hrs coverage- Ideal for full coverage of compact ceremonies such as Twilight options. Depending on timings this often covers some wedding prep to cakecut/first dance for this choice at one venue only.

​

 £700-  6 hrs coverage- Darwen only for traditional Wedding days, ie not Twilight Wedding giving  bridal preparation, Ceremony, family formals, romantic shots to a fake cake cut. This won't include the First dance. I may include speeches depending on timings.

​

  £900-8 Hrs coverage- Darwen only. Same as the 6 hour package but includes speeches and First dance.

​

Super Value Special 3+1 and 4+1 Packages at Darwen Venues

These are 4 and 5 hour packages, at Darwen venues only and have an option to have a break in the time so that when it is time for your meal (usually4/5 pm) I leave and come back for the last hour (includes my travel time, so 45 mins photography) and I can cover Cake cut/First dance. This gives you longer coverage without paying me for my time when you are eating and the speeches. These packages can work for Twighlight and traditional Weddings

​

A £100 deposit will be required when you book to secure your date.

Wedding Albums (photo books) can be ordered from £200 depending on the type of album you would like. Canvases and prints are available at reasonable prices on request.

 

You can add Engagement shoots too so you get to see me at work before the big day. These are priced at £115 for an hour.
