Get In Touch

The most beautiful light for photography occurs in the last two hours before sunset. The last hour photographers refer to as THE GOLDEN HOUR.
As a guide for working out the best time for your ceremony I would say…
Look up the SUNSET TIME on the date you have chosen for your wedding – say it is 6.30 pm. Then SUBTRACT 2 HOURS = 4.30 pm ceremony time.
If we allow an hour for the ceremony and congratulations/group shots
We are now @ 5.30 pm. So then you have THE GOLDEN HOUR in which to shoot the Bride & Groom and or – the bridal party – and give yourself the best chance of getting THAT SPECIAL SHOT.

Wedding day photography bookings range from 1 – 12 hrs.
This will depend on a number of factors.
How much of your WEDDING DAY STORY you would like to be covered by a professional. How many guests you are inviting. How many group/family shots you plan for. Number of venues and how much travel time is involved.
As a starting point you can use the following as a guide…
Getting ready shots – 1 hour
Ceremony – 1/2 hour
Congratulations/family & group shots – 1/2 hour
Wedding party / Bride & Groom shots – 1 hour
Travel time – 1 hour
Reception/arrival/cake cutting/first dance – 1 hour
Speeches/dancing/departure – 3 hours
TOTAL 8 hours

On average you can expect a minimum of 60 shots for each hour of coverage.
