We did not want to be photographed and we have six hundred pictures we love. Anwen was there all day and we barely noticed; the ones of my dad during the speeches, and my gran laughing at the confetti, are the pictures we did not know we needed. Gallery in nineteen days. Album is on the shelf.
Reviews
What couples say.
Six reviews, one for each kind of day we shoot, including the four-star one. Collected by an independent platform a month after the gallery arrives; we do not choose which appear, and we answer every one.
Collected by a third-party review platform. Surnames left off at the couples' request.
A hundred and sixty guests and two venues; Rhys with me in the morning, Anwen with Dan, and the ceremony from two sides so we have each other's faces. The two-shooter package was the right call and they told us honestly that the full day would have been fine for eighty. Nine hundred and forty images.
Eloped on a Wednesday with eight people. Rhys met us at Bridgend registry office, then the beach at low tide, which he had checked. £750. We have better pictures than our friends who spent twenty thousand, and he knew which celebrant would do the clifftop.
It rained all day. All of it. The pictures under the umbrella in the rain are the best wedding photographs I have ever seen of anyone, and the library ones look like a film. Anwen said at the planning call "if it rains we will be fine" and she was right.
Beautiful, honest photographs and a gallery in three weeks as promised. Four stars because we wanted more group shots than the six we had agreed and said so on the day, and we got them but it ate half the drinks reception, exactly as Rhys had warned at the planning call. Our fault more than theirs, but a fair warning deserves a fair review.
Engagement shoot on the cliffs, which we dreaded, and ninety minutes later we were laughing and had the save-the-date picture. On the wedding day we knew what to expect and it showed. The £150 is the best money we spent on the wedding.
About the four stars
Six group photographs take ten minutes. Twenty take the drinks reception. We now say so in writing.
Catrin and Rhodri agreed six groups at the planning call and asked for twenty on the day, and Rhys did them, because it is their wedding; it took forty minutes and the drinks reception went with it. He had warned them and they said so in the review, which is fair. What changed: the planning call now ends with a written list of the groups and the time they will take, sent to both of you, and on the day we carry it. If the list grows on the day we will still do it, and we will still tell you the cost in minutes first.
