BUT FIRST, WHAT IS AN ELOPEMENT?

AN ELOPEMENT IS AN INTENTIONALLY INTIMATE WEDDING EXPEREINCE BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE IN LOVE THAT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE THEM.

THE FOCUS OF THE DAY IS ENTIRELY ON THEMM, THEIR LOVE AND SPENDING THEIR WEDDING DAY DOING THEIR FAVOURITE THINGS WITH NO EXPECTATION FROM OTHERS.

THEY'RE ABOUT BREAKING FREE FROM THE "SHOULDS" AND "MUSTS" OF WEDDING PLANNING AND FOCUSING ON WHAT TRULY MATTERS: YOU AND YOUR PARTNER EMBARKING ON A NEW ADVENTURE TOGETHER.

FAQ

 

WHATS THE BOOKING PROCESS LIKE?

Once I receive your enquiry I'll be in touch within 24 hours to let you know if I have your preferred date available.


If I do then we will arrange a quick zoom call to chat about your elopement plans.

After that you choose your package, pay your 25% deposit, sign a photography contract and then you're all booked in!

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK?

Earlier is better as some dates get booked 12+ months in advance.


CAN YOU HOLD A DATE FOR ME?

After we've had a chat and you've decided I'm the photographer for you, I hold dates for 7 days to give you a chance to read through the contract and pay the deposit.


Your booking is not confirmed until both contract and deposit are received but if someone else enquires about your date I will let you know so you have a chance to finalise the booking first. If I don't hear from you I will assume you no longer wish to book in and will offer your date to the next couple.

CAN YOU HELP WITH OTHER VENDORS?

Absolutely! Part of this service is either sourcing or helping you find the perfect suppliers for your elopement. I've gotten to know lots of local florists, musicians, celebrants and much more over the years.

HOW MANY IMAGES CAN WE EXPECT?

A lot! It's hard to tell for sure because it depends on what's going on, how many locations and if you have any family attending but a good rule of thumb is 50-75 per hour.

WHEN WILL MY BALANCE BE DUE?

The final balance is due 1 month before your elopement. You can make early payments or pay in full on booking.

Any money paid over the retainer amount is protected until the date your final balance would be due.

HOW LONG UNTIL WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS BACK?

Because of the limited number of weddings and elopements I take on, I am able to deliver fully edited galleries within 4 weeks. 

HOW DO WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS?

Everything is digital now so you'll receive an awesome online gallery to view and download your images from. You can share your link with all your friends and family who can also download whatever images they like free of charge. There is a print store within the gallery if you'd like to order some prints and wall art.


For the more traditional of you, I do offer a package including an album which we design together.

CAN WE BRING GUESTS?

Absolutely! I photograph elopements and intimate weddings with up to 20 guests. You can also have formal family photos taken with them as part of the day, but I do always recommend planning the day around you two and your favourite activities

DO WE HAVE TO HIKE?

Absolutely not! Your elopement can take place at some incredible locations just a few minutes walk from the car. I can appreciate not everyone wants to spend their wedding day hiking for hours, though if that is something you want to do then absolutely!

It really is completely up to you what you do on your elopement

WHAT IF IT RAINS OR IS WINDY/COLD?

It will add to the adventure! Full elopement days cannot be rescheduled unless there are severe weather warnings. 

Wales is often rainy and a lot of the beach locations are windy - that usually appeals to my adventurous clients but just come prepared. It's best to embrace it and enjoy yourselves regardless. We don't usually have a full day of rain so I can always jiggle plans around the best parts of the day weatherwise. 

ARE YOU INSURED?

Yes, I have full professional indemnity and liability insurance. 

CAN YOU HELP WITH IDEAS AND LOCATIONS?

Yes! When you book me you get my guidance and creative ideas. If you have any particular ideas for shots just let me know and I can make your ideas a reality.

ARE YOU LGBTQ+ FRIENDLY?

Makes me sad that this is even a question, but of course I am <3

ARE YOU DOG FRIENDLY?

Absolutely!
