 Why Choose Studio 900 Photography ?

You Really Do Get Value For Your Money.

According to Hitched, the average spend on wedding photography is around £ 1800.00.

Your photographs will provide the memories of your wedding day forever and are certainly worth the investment.  That said, we all have budgets to stick too, though you probably won’t.  Weddings have a habit of costing more than you think.  As your photographs are so important consider cutting back on something else so you get the photographer you really want.  The old adage, “you get what you pay for” is usually true to life.  If the wedding photography appears cheap there will be a reason.  Perhaps the photographer is just starting out and has little experience and confidence.  They may not have back up gear in case of equipment malfunction and usually work alone so no second shooter.Make sure you’re aware of what you get for your hard earned money. See above !

I would recommend having two photographers on the day as the images created by a second photographer offer a varied style and approach.  At Studio 900 Photography, we always use our own in-house trained wedding photographers and not a photographer whose style, personality and ability we don’t know.  You may be required to pay for travel and accommodation if we have to travel some distance.  If the wedding venue is more than 65 miles away I personally ask for an overnight stay before the wedding as I fear getting stuck on the motorway and not making the wedding !!

You Can Trust Me

It’s important to find a photographer you trust, because they’ll be documenting the most important day of your life. The last thing you want is for them to miss out on an important shot or be unable to capture the beautiful moments that happen throughout your amazing wedding day. I am a great photojournalist and  I will capture the magic and emotion of your wedding day in ways that even you might not expect. On the other hand, an inexperienced or unprofessional photographer can ruin what could have been an otherwise perfect day. Wedding photography is one of the most competitive businesses out there — so make sure that any photographer you’re considering has plenty of reviews from past clients who were happy with their work. See some of mine here. Get recommendations from trusted friends, family members or colleagues who’ve hired photographers for their own weddings (and whose weddings were well-documented). Ask them about their experience working with a particular photographer — was it easy? Did they feel like they were able to capture all of the important moments?

I Have 25 Years Experience

Choose a wedding photographer who has a great deal of experience. As a seasoned professional I know how a wedding day unfolds and will ensure the day runs smoothly.  Time is of the essence as wedding photography can be a stressful and pressurised job.  I cope easily with the demands of the role and have done for many years.  I have personally photographed over 1000 weddings during my 25 years in business!!  That said, you will have to pay more for an expert.  A good wedding photographer should have a style that fits with your personality and preferences. I create timeless images that can be enjoyed for years to come, from getting ready  to saying “I do” in front of all your guests. Furthermore, l love to take candid shots of the guests dancing, laughing and generally enjoying themselves throughout the evening. As a professional photographer I have photographed hundreds of weddings before yours, so I know how to get great shots without being intrusive during the ceremony or reception.  I know how to handle different situations and personalities, and can anticipate what will happen at your wedding so you can be prepared ahead of time. I am passionate about what I do and I will share your excitement and get excited about working  together.

Image Quality and Style

The quality of a photographer’s work can make or break a wedding. It is important to hire a professional photographer who has experience in weddings and who knows how to capture all the most important moments.

There are many different styles of wedding photography, but most have some things in common: candid shots and posed pictures. Candid shots capture the real feelings and emotions of the day, while posed shots help create memories that last forever.  Are you looking for something classic or contemporary? Do you want black-and-white photos or colour?  We can discuss this before booking me so I can give you advice on how best to achieve the kind of style that you want.   

As an artistic photographer I sometime use interesting angles and lighting effects to create images with impact and may also use props such as flowers or other items from around the venue when taking photos. The results are often quite dramatic and striking images that stand out from other photos taken at weddings. 

Please have an in-depth look at my work, as have the experience and skillset to create more than one style.  What you see on my web site is what you will get on your wedding day.   If any web sites you see show images that are out of focus or poorly composed beware.  Their web site is their choice of their best work !

I hope this article has helped, happy hunting and keep living the dream.
