How Much?
I charge a flat fee of £1,675 for weddings within the Home Counties. Besides the actual day of photography, I gave you a photo book or traditional album (which I can show you when we meet up). The £1,675 fee covers everything: the day (up to ten hours); my travel; processing time; either the book or album; meeting up with you before; the VatMan. Everything.
Is there any flexibility at all in your set price?
Occasionally, I do have special offers or seasonal deals. Please ask.
What about weddings outside the Home Counties?
I charge a mileage fee and ask you to arrange accommodation.
What if you’re ill on the day?
If, on the wedding day, I am unable to work due to extreme illness, I will arrange for another photographer I know and trust to do the shoot. Or, if you wish to make your own arrangements, I will refund your deposit in full. However, this is highly unlikely, as I have never missed a shoot due to illness in over 25+ years of photography.
Do you need to be fed on the day?
Yes, please. It’s a long day and some hot food after everyone else is served would be greatly appreciated.
Do you shoot film or digital?
The short answer is, Digital. Although I grew up shooting b/w film and love the luminous quality of a silver print, I have totally embraced digital technology. I am amazed at all it can do and the creative freedom it gives me.
Can our family and guests view the photos?
Yes, of course. I create a gallery of low-res images on MobileMe, which you and all your family and friends can have access to.
Who chooses the images for the album/book?
You do. After viewing the images on MobileMe (or the CD I’ll send you), you choose the images you want.
How do we book you?
Please see the Get in touch with John Cole page of the website. And if I haven’t answered your questions, please don’t hesitate to call me for a chat about your wedding plans.
