Question 1

Do you shoot “normal” weddings?

Accepted Answer

What even is “normal" anyway?!  If you mean a traditional church ceremony with a white dress and every family member including Auntie Sue you haven't seen for 20 years, if that’s what you want, it's your day!! It has to feel like you, so trust your gut!!

Question 2

What’s your photography style?

Accepted Answer

Dark, moody and romantic, every story is different and I get to know my couples before the big day so I can shoot it in a way that reflects their personality in my signature style.

Question 3

Do you travel?

Accepted Answer

Do you travel?I do indeed! For weddings up to 30 miles of LL14 is included in the price. If you are further away a charge of 55p per mile is added each way.  Let me know where you're based when you fill in the contact form and I can give you a quote :)

Question 4

Will you need accommodation?

Accepted Answer

Will you need accommodation?
If your wedding location is over 2 hours away I’ll need to arrange accommodation for the night before. For full day weddings happening over 3 hours away, accommodation will be needed for two nights - nobody wants to drive home for 3 hours after shooting a full day wedding (Plus - I'll probably stay at your wedding longer)

Question 5

Do you shoot destination weddings?

Accepted Answer

I am happy to travel to places where you dream of getting married, please send as much info as you can in the contact form and I can give you a bespoke quote.

Question 6

Do you edit all the photos yourself?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely, 100%.  I know with AI now and editing software that galleries can be culled and edited super quickly, but I don't trust it, I know my own eyes! It wouldn't know why I'd taken certain shots a certain way.  Every image you receive is hand edited by me in my dark and dreamy aesthetic, no generic filters, no weird airbrushing, and although I do remove distractions in post I won't Photoshop you to make you thinner/smaller/taller, you're bloody perfect just the way you are!!

Question 7

Our venue is really bright and white, can you make the photos look dark and dramatic?

Accepted Answer

Your venue sets the whole vibe for your day and photographs, even with epic styling, a white room will never look like the interior of a castle or goth mansion, so bare this in mind when venue scouting!

Question 8

What if we’re awkward in front of the camera?

Accepted Answer

Honestly, most people say this, so don't panic! My job is to make you feel comfortable, so you can be yourselves! We’ll have a laugh and you'll forget I've even got a camera! Just focus on enjoying yourself!! that's the main thing!

Question 9

How do we book you?

Accepted Answer

How do we book you?It's easy! Fill out my contact form, tell me all about your plans, and we’ll set up a call to see if we're a good fit. I'll send over a contract and invoice and once you send your booking fee over your date is in my diary! HAPPY DANCE!! Then we start getting excited about your day!!!

Question 10

Can we get prints and albums from you?

Accepted Answer

Do you offer prints/albums?
YES, and they’re absolutely gorgeous!! When I send your gallery, there's options to buy these in a huge range of sizes and mediums, there's so much choice!! I always recommend getting your photos printed via the print store as standard retailers colours are not always a match! Not saying you can't! but I find they don't look anywhere near as good!

Question 11

What’s your turnaround time?

Accepted Answer

You’ll get sneak peeks within 48 hours because I know you’re dying to see them! Full galleries can take up to 10 weeks (during peak times) beautiful art takes time, but I promise it’s worth the wait.

Question 12

Are you insured?

Accepted Answer

Are you insured?
Yes! I have full public liability and professional indemnity insurance. If your venue needs a copy of this, just let me know!

Question 13

What happens if it rains?

Accepted Answer

Then we get epic, dramatic, rain drenched photos. Some of my favourite images come from “bad” weather. IT'S ATMOSPHERIC, DARLING!!

Question 14

Do you have backup gear?

Accepted Answer

Do you have backup gear?
ALWAYS! Two cameras, saving to double card slots, multiple lenses, an abundance of memory cards, cloud storage, don't worry my loves! You're in safe hands!

Question 15

What if we need to cancel or reschedule?

Accepted Answer

Don't stress! Life happens. The booking fee is non-refundable, but I try to be flexible in terms of reschedules, always happy to work together to find a new date that works for us both.If you do need to cancel completely, depending on the date of cancellation a % fee of the total cost will be due, the terms of this will be in your contract.

Question 16

Will we need to feed you??

Accepted Answer

It's not essential, but it's lovely when you do!I will need to eat at some point, if I'm not eating at the venue I can find somewhere local to grab something to eat while you and your guests eat.

Question 17

Do you shoot LGBTQ+ weddings?

Accepted Answer

I DO!! and I bloody love them!! My business will always be a safe space for everyone!

Question 18

Can we bring our dog?

Accepted Answer

Errr, HELL YES!!! Please bring your four legged friend!! Dogs are the best!! And they make the cutest photos!! Also, don't' stop at your dog, you can bring your horse, llama, snakes! bring the whole zoo!! We're all coming for the party!!

Hiya!! I'm Janie!

WHAT CAN I SAY? JANIE IS THE BEST!
