Wedding Photography: David's approach

Wedding photography has changed considerably in recent years. Gone are the stiff unnatural poses and rigid group shots. In their place is a relaxed, informal storybook of the day as it unfolds.

David’s photography offers exactly the specialised contemporary approach that many of today’s couples are looking for. Recording not only the people, personalities and events of the day, but also images of the bride’s bouquet and dress, shoes and jewellery, order of service, menus and sometimes even the food itself. Details which you will have taken a great deal of time and effort to choose, and which most traditional photographers ignore. The images produced create a lasting reflection of the true spirit and emotion of the day - in the faces of family and friends, in the details of the dress and bouquet and the loving expressions of the bride and groom.

Personal consultation and discussion well in advance of the day means that David can tailor the photography to your individual requirements. David discreetly captures the images of your wedding, leaving you free to relax and mingle with guests and family. Coverage usually starts with the bride and groom during their preparations and extends to the reception. Approximately 250-300 images are taken during the day and can be a mixture of colour and black & white depending on your preference. The majority will be informal, although relaxed group shots can easily be incorporated, efficiently and with the minimum of fuss, as some family members may prefer these.

Once completed, the images are selected by the bride and groom, with David’s assistance if needed, and incorporated into an attractive bespoke designer album with a varied choice of styling and layout. Your images dictate the design and style of the pages, creating a unique record of your day, unlike a traditional album where photographs have to be shoe-horned into a standard style layout.

To ensure that you are fully relaxed and confident about the photography on the day a free pre-wedding shoot takes place, normally about six weeks prior to the wedding. This not only provides an opportunity to discuss with David any specific queries you may have, but also lets you get to know him a little better and to discover that being photographed can be great fun! The best image from the shoot is then framed and taken to the reception for your guests to sign their best wishes around the mount.

David will unobtrusively capture those moments of the day that make it so unique: beautiful detail shots, glamorous fashion style images of the bride and groom and candid images of your guests simply enjoying themselves. All this while you are left to relax and enjoy your special day.
