Is there anything I need to let you know about my wedding before hand?
Yes, it is imperative that you email some basic pointers about your wedding day so that I can prepare accordingly. 1. A rough time schedule of how the events of the day are expected to run. 2. A list of addresses of where Lisa B and second photographer (if booked) need to be with postcodes [...]
Are you available for overseas/destination weddings?
Lisa B has shot weddings all over the World, from Hawaii, France, Bali, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, to name just a few! Please contact me for further details if your wedding is outside of the UK.
How many photos will be taken on my wedding day?
This depends on the size and duration of the wedding. Generally I take around 2,000 – 3,000 for a ten-hour day. I may end up editing about a quarter a way due to people blinking etc.
Can I reserve a date?
I can pencil in your requested date but due to popular demand I’m afraid I can’t hold your date if I have other requests for the same day. A 50% deposit and a copy of the signed confirmation will secure your wedding photography by me.
Do you have a contract?
I have a simple confirmation, which ensures there is no misunderstanding between the couple and photographer on the agreed terms and conditions.
Do we need to feed you?
Oh yes please!!! I work extremely hard throughout the day and if I am under fed it can have a detrimental effect on my ability to focus!!! It is appreciated that the couple provide a hot meal (vegetarian or fish/seafood please) and soft drinks for the photographer and her assistant whilst the wedding party and [...]
Do you shoot colour or black & white?
I shoot in colour and then convert about a third of the files to black and white afterwards, depending on which ones I think will look best in B&W/colour. If you require all your shots only to be in colour or black and white, it is important that you let me know before the wedding [...]
Do you have backup equipment?
Yes, I have at least one back up camera with me at all times and more than enough lenses should any of them malfunction.
Do you travel?
I am based in Northampton UK, and I am willing to travel. If however I need more than 3 hours to drive to your wedding location I will need to travel up the night before and stay in a travel lodge or bed and breakfast so I can be refreshed and well rested for your [...]
What happens if it rains on our wedding day?
I will shoot as much as practically possible and with the help of lots of umbrellas we should be OK. In fact some of my best shots have been on rainy days. It doesn’t have to spoil your pictures at all. Wedding reception venues will often have an indoor space we can use and I [...]
What is included in the 8/full day hours?
For a typical wedding, I would normally cover the following – Preparations at the bride’s house, The groom and family at the ceremony beforehand The guests arriving, the bride arriving, Discrete shots of the ceremony (if permitted), The signing of the register, The couple leaving, Formal and relaxed group shots of the immediate families and [...]
I really hate my photo being taken! How can I cope with a camera in my face all day?
Don’t worry, I won’t be in your face! I use a very long lens as much as possible so you won’t even notice I am there half the time. I have been on the other side of the camera for over ten years and I know how to make people feel relaxed and comfortable. I [...]
What happens if I have to postpone or cancel my wedding?
Since I would have turned down other potential clients for your wedding date I’m afraid the deposit is non refundable. It is always advisable for the couple to buy wedding Insurance -an often-overlooked aspect of wedding planning. You can get some comparisons on Wedding Insurance from www.CompareWeddingInsurance.org.uk they also have some great information on there [...]
What happens if you are unable to shoot my wedding?
I would have to be very sick not to turn up to your wedding. In the 15 years I have been shooting weddings I have never missed a single one! But if anything did happen I have a network of photographers that I work closely with and it would just be a matter of a [...]
