Q: What is Documentary style vs Editorial style photography
Documentary has a more relaxed feel. It captures the big moments, with some posed couple and family shots, but mostly shows the wedding unfolding naturally. Overall, the photos are candid, mostly unposed, and will have you reliving the day as it was.
Q: How do I know which is the right package for my wedding?
01 — The Highlights
Perfect if you’re working within a tighter budget but still want beautiful, meaningful keepsakes from your ceremony. I focus on the moments that matter most — the bride walking in, the groom’s reaction, your vows, your first kiss, and your first portraits as a married couple. A mix of candid and gently guided shots.
Once we’ve captured these essentials, you’re free to let your guests document the rest of the celebration as it unfolds naturally.
02 — The Main Moments
This includes everything in the Highlights package, plus relaxed portraits with your family and a handful of candid moments as you first greet and mingle with your guests. It’s a lovely balance — the key moments, plus a little extra storytelling.
03 — The Signature
My most complete option. You’ll receive everything in the Main Moments package, along with getting‑ready coverage — some of the most heartfelt, electric moments of the day. The nerves, the excitement, the anticipation… these images often become favourites because they capture the emotion behind the celebration.
