Everything you need to know about your wedding photography
THE FULL STORY
Full Day wedding Photography Package - £1100
Up to 10 hours of relaxed, natural wedding photography — from the excitement of getting ready right through to your first dance and a few songs afterwards.
This is the package for couples who want the full story of their wedding day captured. The nervous excitement while you're getting ready, the happy tears during the ceremony, the hugs you didn't see coming, the little in-between moments, the chaos, the laughter, the cake, the first dance — and, of course, those slightly questionable dance moves once everyone has had a chance to loosen up.
We'll chat beforehand about exactly when you'd like your coverage to begin, but for most couples this works out at around two hours before the ceremony. This gives me plenty of time to capture both of you getting ready, all those little details and those lovely moments with your friends and family before the day really gets going.
From there, I'll be with you throughout the ceremony, celebrations and reception, staying until your first dance and for around 2–3 songs afterwards. That means I can capture the proper dance floor chaos before I disappear and leave you to party!
❤︎ Up to 10 hours of wedding photography coverage
We'll work out the perfect start time together, usually around two hours before your ceremony.
❤︎ Getting ready photography
I'll capture the excitement and anticipation as you both get ready, including the little details, your outfits, your people and all those moments that happen before you even make it down the aisle.
❤︎ Your ceremony
From the big moment you've been waiting for to the little glances, happy tears and reactions happening around you.
❤︎ Reception coverage
I'll be there to capture the celebrations, drinks, food, speeches, cake cutting, hugs, laughter and all the wonderfully chaotic bits in between.
❤︎ First dance + dance floor coverage
I'll stay for your first dance and around 2–3 songs afterwards, giving me plenty of time to capture the fun, ridiculous and wonderfully energetic dance floor moments.
What's Included
❤︎ A minimum of 500 professionally edited images
Every image is carefully selected and individually edited in my signature natural, timeless style.
❤︎ Password-protected online gallery
Your finished photographs will be delivered in a beautiful online gallery 4-6 weeks after your wedding day. Download and share your images with your favourite people.
❤︎ Sneak peeks within one week
You won't have to wait weeks to see your photographs. I'll send you a little selection of sneak peeks within a week of your wedding — and I'll usually try to get these to you sooner.
❤︎ Half-price pre-wedding engagement shoot
Want to get comfortable in front of the camera before the big day? Your wedding package includes a pre-wedding engagement shoot at half price.
❤︎ No travel charges within 2 hours of Stafford
Your package includes travel within two hours of Stafford, so there are no surprise travel costs for weddings within my usual coverage area.
A lITTLE LOVE STORY
Half Day wedding Photography Package - £700
Perfect for couples who don’t need full-day coverage but still want all the meaningful moments captured beautifully.
With 5 consecutive hours of photography, we can choose the part of your day that matters most to you. Whether that's arriving in time for the final bits of getting ready, capturing your ceremony and portraits, staying through the speeches and celebrations, or being there for your first dance and some brilliant dance floor chaos — we'll plan the timing around your wedding.
❤︎ 5 consecutive hours of wedding photography coverage
We'll work together to choose the perfect start time for your day. Because your wedding doesn't have to follow a set formula, your five hours can be shaped around the moments that are most important to you.
❤︎ Your ceremony
I'll capture all the big moments, along with the little ones happening around them — the nervous smiles, happy tears, stolen glances and reactions from the people you love.
❤︎ Couple & group photographs
We'll make time for some beautiful photographs of the two of you, as well as any important family or group photographs you'd like. I'll keep things relaxed and natural, so it doesn't feel like you've disappeared from your own wedding for an hour of posing.
❤︎ Reception & celebrations
Depending on when your coverage begins, I'll capture everything from drinks and canapés to speeches, cake cutting, hugs, laughter and all those lovely in-between moments.
What's Included
❤︎ A minimum of 250 professionally edited images
Every image is carefully selected and individually edited in my signature natural, timeless style.
❤︎ Password-protected online gallery
Your finished photographs will be delivered in a beautiful online gallery 4-6 weeks after your wedding day. Download and share your images with your favourite people.
❤︎ Sneak peeks within one week
You won't have to wait weeks to see your photographs. I'll send you a little selection of sneak peeks within a week of your wedding — and I'll usually try to get these to you sooner.

THE SHORT & SWEET
2-Hour wedding Photography Package - £300
What's Included
A lovely little package for couples who want the most important moments captured without the full-day fuss.
With 2 consecutive hours of photography at one location, we'll focus on the parts of your day that matter most to you — from your guests arriving and the excitement before the ceremony, through to your vows, confetti, family photographs and some relaxed time together for a few beautiful couple portraits.
It's perfect for intimate weddings, registry office ceremonies, elopements and couples who simply don't need hours and hours of coverage but still want something meaningful to look back on.
❤︎ 2 consecutive hours of wedding photography
All at one location, with the timing planned around your ceremony and the moments you most want captured.
❤︎ Guest arrivals & pre-ceremony moments
I'll be there to capture the excitement as your guests arrive, the hugs, hellos, nervous smiles and all those little moments happening before the ceremony begins.
❤︎ Your ceremony
From walking down the aisle to your first kiss, I'll capture the important moments as well as the little glances and reactions happening around you.
❤︎ Confetti & celebrations
We'll make sure there's time for your confetti moment and those lovely photographs immediately afterwards as you celebrate with your favourite people.
❤︎ Family & group photographs
We'll make time for the important family and group photographs you've requested, keeping things organised so we don't spend your entire two hours lining everyone up!
❤︎ Relaxed couple portraits
We'll sneak away for a little time together to capture some beautiful photographs of the two of you without making it feel like a full-blown photoshoot.
❤︎ A minimum of 150 professionally edited images
Every image is carefully selected and individually edited in my signature natural, timeless style.

Your finished photographs will be delivered in a beautiful online gallery 4-6 weeks after your wedding day. Download and share your images with your favourite people.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
-
If your wedding day is running longer than planned or you'd simply like me to stay for a little longer, additional photography coverage is available at £120 per hour.
If you'd like to add extra hours to your booking from the start, just let me know and I'll include them in your quote.
If you decide you'd like a little more coverage while your wedding day is happening, that's absolutely fine too. Additional hours can be added on the day, where possible, and the additional balance will need to be paid before your final gallery is delivered.
-
I can arrange beautiful wedding albums, prints and canvases featuring your favourite images from your gallery.
These are available as optional extras and are quoted individually, depending on what you'd like and the size, style and finish you choose.
If you'd like to create something special from your wedding photographs, just ask and I'll be happy to put together some options for you.
-
I love photographing weddings in new places, so don't feel like you need to be local to Stafford to book me! Travel within 1 hour of Stafford is included at no extra cost with most packages, while my full-day package includes travel within 2 hours of Stafford.
Planning something a little further away? No problem. I'm happy to travel anywhere across the UK, and I'll simply work out a travel quote based on the location and include it in your quote before you book. I'm always up for the adventure.

Once your wedding is getting closer, I'll set up a WhatsApp group for the three of us — you, your other half and me. And I genuinely want you to use it.
Ask me questions. Tell me things. Send me updates. Tell me about something you've just booked. Tell me what you're excited about, what you're nervous about or what you're absolutely determined to have on the day. If you've found something you love, have a question about timings or suddenly realise you've forgotten to think about something, message me.
Think of it less like a formal photographer-client chat and more like having me in your corner while you're planning the wedding.
I'll use everything you tell me to get to know you both and understand what's important to you, so when your wedding day arrives, I'm not just turning up with a camera — I already know the people, moments and little details that matter to you.
We'll also use this time to chat through your plans and work out exactly how your photography coverage will flow, including when you'd like me to arrive and what you want captured.
-
Once I've packed away my cameras and you've finally had a chance to catch your breath, I'll start working through your photographs.
Within one week of your wedding, I'll send you a selection of sneak peeks so you don't have to wait too long before getting a little taste of your day.
Then comes the big one. Your full wedding gallery will be delivered within 4–6 weeks of your wedding.
Every photograph you receive will have been carefully selected and professionally edited, ready for you to download, share, print and relive your wedding day all over again.
And yes — you can absolutely keep chatting to me on WhatsApp while you're waiting. I know how hard it is to be patient when you're desperate to see everything!

If you think we'd be the perfect fit, simply click the button below and fill in my enquiry form. Tell me as much (or as little!) as you'd like about the two of you, your wedding plans, and the vision you have for your day. I absolutely love hearing all the little details.
Once I've received your enquiry, I'll be in touch as soon as possible to chat through everything and answer any questions you might have.
When you're ready to make things official, I'll send over your booking form, which includes your contract and booking questionnaire. To secure your date, all I require is a signed contract and a 20% booking fee. Once those are complete, your wedding date is officially in my calendar!
I can't wait to hear all about your plans and hopefully be a small part of such a special chapter in your story.
Love,
Charlize
