£750: three hours, weekdays, the Vale coast, the Gower or the hills
Elopements and small weddings
Three hours with one of us on a weekday for a wedding of two to twenty: the ceremony at a registry office, a chapel or a beach, a walk somewhere beautiful afterwards, and a drink or a meal. The Vale coast, the Gower and the Brecon Beacons are an hour away and we know where the light goes.
More couples are marrying with a handful of people on a Tuesday and spending the money on the day itself, and it is some of our favourite work: no timeline, no coordinator, just the two of you and a few people who matter, somewhere with a view, with time to walk. Three hours covers the ceremony and the walk and leaves you to the dinner.
We meet you at the ceremony (Barry, Bridgend and Cardiff registry offices, a chapel, a clifftop with a celebrant) for the half hour before and the ceremony itself, and then go somewhere: the beach at Southerndown or Llantwit, the cliffs at Nash Point, the dunes at Merthyr Mawr, Three Cliffs on the Gower, a hill above the Beacons. An hour of walking and talking with the camera along, which is where the pictures come from, and then the first drink with your people. Three hours, two hundred or more images in three weeks, highlights in a week.
Weekdays are £750 because that is when we are free; a weekend elopement is the half-day price. We know the registrars, the celebrants who will do a clifftop, where to park at Nash Point, and what time the tide is out at Three Cliffs, and we will help with the plan if you want help. For a wedding abroad, the same three hours plus travel, quoted honestly.

Questions about elopements
Can we do a weekend?
Yes, at the half-day price (£1,250), because weekends are the days we are otherwise booked.
Where would you go for the walk?
Depends on the light and the tide: Southerndown or Nash Point on the Vale coast, Three Cliffs or Rhossili on the Gower, Llyn y Fan or Pen y Fan in the Beacons. We will suggest two once we know the date and the ceremony time.
Check your date, then tell us about the day.
The availability page says which dates are already taken. If yours is free, the form takes two minutes, we reply within the working day, and a video call that week with a £400 deposit holds it. If it is gone, we will say so and suggest two photographers we would book ourselves.
