FAQ'S - Wild Fern Wedding Photographer Northern Ireland

WHAT IS YOUR PHOTO DELIVERY TIMEFRAME?

I first send out a little snippet on a slideshow a week or two after your wedding and I always aim to have full wedding galleries fully edited and sent out within 3-4 weeks. During busy season it could be between 5-6 weeks but in most cases its around 3. Once I have your photos ready I will email you directly with a link to your online viewing, sharing and download gallery. Through this online gallery there are also options for you to design your own albums, order prints and gifts with your photos on them.

Do you take family formals?

Yes! Families are such a big part of wedding days and its so important to make sure you have some photos of everyone you love! To keep within the timeline for your day, I recommend concentrating on immediate families first (mums, dads, brothers, sisters, your siblings partners, any children they might have and grandparents too). Once we get the bridal party photos, the portraits of you both together and your immediate families and provided there is enough time before you are called for your meal I can take some more formals or shoot some more candid shots with you and your guests (just whichever you prefer).
In terms of families and immediate family line ups I have a great system that covers most variations so you will have plenty to choose from. Check out some of Jordan and Claire’s formals from their big day (above).

CAN WE MEET BEFORE THE WEDDING?

Yes of course! I am based about 20 minutes outside Belfast so we can grab a coffee close by and get to know each other or if distance is too far we can jump on a skype/zoom or phone call. Either way it would be great to get to know you both a little more before the big day arrives.

FAQ's

QUESTION

ANSWER

DO YOU HAVE BACKUP GEAR?

Yes. I always have multiple camera bodies, a number of lenses, and more memory cards than I need at all weddings. I shoot on Canon 5D Mk3’s, Sony A73’s and mostly use Canons L series lenses

DO YOU CHARGE EXTRA FOR TRAVEL?

For weddings in Ireland that I have to travel to a little further from home I have a set travel fee of £300. Please contact me with your venue details for a quote.

WILL YOUR LOGO BE ON OUR PHOTOS?

No it won't and all the photos you receive will be 100% full size and ready for you to print and display as many times as you want :)

HOW MANY IMAGES WILL WE RECEIVE?

A crazy amount so be prepared for lots of viewing time! I quote a minimum of 300 for weddings and a minimum of 60 for couple shoots. Total amount after that depends on day coverage and locations.

HOW DOES YOUR BOOKING PROCESS WORK?

I work on a first come, first serve basis. Once your deposit is paid, you have filled out the booking form and signed my contract by agreeing with my T&C's your wedding date is firmly secured. Sadly I cannot hold dates for you without booking deposit and an agreement in place first. I ask for a non-refundable deposit payment of £300 to book any of my weddings or services.

Will you help during the portraits?

Definitely! My main aim during the portraits is to keep you both feeling as comfortable as possible. My style is natural and relaxed and this is the case for the portrait time too. I will guide you both on what to do. This is a fun time and its a great opportunity for you both to take some quiet time away for the busyness of your day. We can make this time as short or as long as you want : -)

HOW DOES THE PAYMENT PROCESS WORK?

To book any of my wedding options I ask for a non-refundable deposit of £300 and then I ask for the remaining balance to be paid as one payment no later than 3 weeks before the date of your wedding. For pre-wedding couple shoots I ask for the full payment to be paid 3 weeks before the day of the shoot.
