"Having worked with Lee in another life, I knew he and Jane would be perfect for my wedding. They are literally the nicest couple ever. They met with us before a few times to make sure they knew exactly what we wanted and always brought along samples. They stayed in touch and always made us both feel like their number one priority.

On the day itself, Jane was great at calming my nerves and and both were great at the venues. We have so many great shots and we’re thrilled with the results.

We opted to have an album and the quality is outstanding. All our friends and family have been really complimentary."

"Lee and Jane were absolutely wonderful photographers. Even from our initial meeting with them we knew we wanted them to photograph our wedding and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice.

They are both wonderfully kind and friendly people who made us both feel really calm and relaxed and like we had known them forever. We are both kind of shy so it was really nice to feel so comfortable!

On the day they were so helpful and incredibly patient, with lots of our guests mentioning how great they had been.

The quality of the photographs and the presentation of them were fantastic! And we couldn’t of asked for anything more.

A huge thanks again!

"Lee and Jane made our day. it was a pleasure working with them from start to finish. Everything was so personal and genuine. I love people people with integrity and passion. Nothing was too much trouble and the result was they brought a calmness to the whole day.
The photos are unbelievably good and my only complaint is how on earth can we pick our favourites out when they are all so amazing . I don't think they missed a shot all day. We had great fun going through all 1200 photo's. Yes 1200 (you read right)Thanks you two and keep doing what you're doing. You do it so well."

The photographer we had booked let us down 3 weeks prior to our wedding. A friend recommended Jane and Lee. They visited us at our home, they came as strangers and left as friends! They listened to us and visited the wedding venue prior to the day to ensure that they knew where the best shots would be. Their professionalism shone throughout the whole day. All our friends remarked on what a fantastic couple they were and how they certainly 'earned their money'. They were quiet and unobtrusive yet managed to get all the shots we requested plus many, many more! The photographs and the slide show surpassed our expectations! We were both blown away with the quality how they captured the day, the end results were amazing! We would unreservedly recommend them to anyone looking for photographers for a wedding!

We would recommend Lee and Jane to everyone for any occasion.

Pretty much anything at all, however, one thing remains consistent, our style and approach to shooting. We will capture the fun and natural moments that make your event memorable. There is no set format for an event, so it’s better to create a bespoke package specific to your needs.

  • What does the wedding package include?

    Every wedding is a personal and unique experience and should be a representation of your style and character, we are therefore more than happy to discuss a bespoke package to meet your individual needs.

  • Do you cover more than one wedding a day?

    We focus 100% on your special day and wouldn't want to jeopardise the quality of our service by taking on more than one wedding in a day.

  • What style of photos do you take?

    Our documentary style of photography means that we encapsulate the atmosphere, excitement and true emotions experienced by you and your guests throughout the day. We love to observe people and their interactions with each other, these are the times to capture the all important fleeting moments, the expressions, the quirks, the laughter and the enjoyment as these really form an authentic representation of how the day felt during that moment in time. We are committed to telling your story by carefully merging our contemporary documentary style with glimpses of the traditional where needed. We understand that some traditional shots still form the foundation of the day, however, our approach enables us to produce personal, unique and artistic images that have true depth and meaning that will prove to be truly timeless.

  • What kind of technology do you use?

    We both use the latest, top of the range Canon 5D Mark IV cameras. We have range of quality lenses including the super fast 50mm f1.2 and 24-70mm f2.8 and 70-200mm f2.8 zoom lenses. We also use wireless flashes to capture the fun on the dance floor and have additional lighting available should we need it.

  • Do you offer any tool to display the photos online?

    Our on-line gallery is an integral part of our website. Each private gallery is password protected and created to suit your particular needs, either simply to view images and select your favourites or to allow your family and friends to purchase digital downloads, prints, canvases and various other available packages. Payments are made through a secure on-line checkout. All our clients receive a personal online gallery, however, you decide on the features you would like to be made available.

  • What's the delivery time for photographic report?

    On average photographs will be ready within 2-3 months (during the busy wedding season), however, we will post a sneak preview of selected shots on our password protected gallery within the first 2-3 weeks. We carefully edit each individual image to the highest quality in a variety of styles, so this takes time as we often shoot over 2000 images.

  • Do you have the rights to publish the wedding photos?

    Ultimately we retain the copyright to the images taken on the day, (this is our only protection against further editing of the images taking place), however, you are granted limited personal licence to print and upload images as you wish.
