Extended Celebration Coverage Price £195

Sometimes the best stories are told after the sun goes down. Whether your speeches are running over or you want to ensure the energy of the dance floor is fully documented, you can extend your coverage for £195 per hour.
Adding extra time allows for a more relaxed pace, ensuring I can capture those spontaneous, late-night moments—the heartfelt hugs, the 'unofficial' speeches, and the full atmosphere of your evening party. If you aren't sure how much time you need, I can help you map out a timeline that ensures not a single chapter is missed.

The 'Camera-Shy' Connection Session Price £195

Think of this as a relaxed dress rehearsal for your wedding day. For £195, we’ll spend an hour at a location of your choice—perhaps where you got engaged or a favorite Manchester park—to get you comfortable in front of the lens.

There are no stiff poses here. My goal is to break down the '
camera nerves' so that by your wedding morning, my presence feels like a friend in the room rather than a stranger with a camera. You’ll receive a gallery of natural, high-resolution images that are perfect for 'Save the Date' cards or wedding décor, but the real value is the confidence you’ll feel when the big day arrives.
