Wedding photography prices in Essex

If you are looking for a simple, documentary approach to your wedding, my packages are based on how much of the day you would like photographed, without any stiff posing or long photo lists.

The Essential Moments Package, from £695

Around four hours of relaxed, documentary coverage, ideal for smaller weddings or when you mainly want the ceremony, couple time and speeches covered.

The Storytelling Package, from £995

Full day coverage from morning preparations through to the evening, with a ten image preview within three days and an online gallery for sharing with family and friends.

The Signature Package, from £1,295

Full day uninterrupted coverage with an eco conscious focus, a fifteen image preview within three days and a digital mini album that is easy to share.

All wedding packages include a password protected online gallery, and extra hours can be added at £125 per hour if you need a little longer. A 30% deposit secures your date, with the balance usually due on the day, or on invoice for commercial style weddings.
