Your wedding day will most probably be the most expensive and special day of your life which is why a good photographer who doesn't charge the earth can help bring down that cost and save you money.

Peace of mind is a must so make sure you always check the photographers work and background before you make any choices. Adrian is fully CRB checked.

Make sure your photographer has the correct equipment in order to fulfill your photographic requirements. Many wedding photographers will only carry one camera and one lens which restricts the variation in your photographs. Adrian always has two cameras and five lenses at hand to manage any situation.

If the light is low for examply in your reception where the speeches are being held, Adrian can provide mobile studio lights to combat any difficult lighting situations. These lights will be battery powered so there will be no cables trailing across your floors.

You may have 150 guests at your wedding and so need to know what sort of crew your photographer is bringing along (if any) - If he / she are on their own, then you aren't going to get too many shots of your guests throughout the day as they will be concentrating on yourselves. Adrian can accommodate for all situations and can provide 2nd photographers if necessary.

If you require a group shot of 500 guests, you need to check with the photographer that he has the correct wide-angled lens so the whole group can be captured. If you want closeup shots of your jewellery and dress, try to show examples of what you want from your own images or the photographers own portfolio as each shot may require a different lens and you don't want to be disappointed with the final result.

Adrian has the know-how and all the equipment (left) required to turn your days events into a beautiful array of images for you to treasure forever.

Always check and compare the packages each photographer may offer. Some photographers will offer themselves for around £400 but you must be aware of what you get for your money in this instance.

For example always ask:

How many photographs do you get for your money.

How many will the photographer print?

What size will the prints be?

Do you get an album included in the price?

Will the images be uploaded to a website so friends and family can access the images to purchase online.

All wedding photographers are different and offer various packages, some offer only one or two options which may suit you. For example you may only want a wedding photographer who offers ALL images taken on your day on a CD / DVD. You may pay a little more for this initially but will save money in the long run as most photographers only allow you to have a certain number of the images as stipulated in their initial contracts.

Always ask your wedding photographer what you are getting as a standard package. You may only get a set amount of traditional images of yourselves and relations, but if you have a large number of guests this can greatly affect the price of your photographer

Check how long your photographer will be at your wedding and what images he / she will take a standard. You may want the photographer to capture images of the bride getting ready in the morning which will obviously cost more. Don't assume that all photographers will be able to do this for their standard fee.

Ask the photographer if they cover the wedding reception and the evening bash. Most disappear after the mock cuttong of the cake but do offer extended options where they will stay and take photographs up to an agreed time for an extra fee.

Always tell your chosen photographer exactly what shots you do want so he can note them down. Once the moment has passed, it's more often too late to do it all again!

Never forget to ask the photographer if your fee includes VAT as this can increase your costs by 17.5% instantly
