Question 1

When should we book?

Accepted Answer

Without panicking you... as soon as you can!
My calendar is open for dates as far as 3 years.

I tend to get fully booked up around 12–18 months in advance, especially for summer weekends. But if you’re planning something super last-minute, always drop me a message. You never know!

Key dates do go super quick, I do a little sob when couples get in touch and I'm already booked. So, if you think we might be the perfect fit it's super important to get in contact when you know your date and venue so I can check my availability.

Question 2

Are you LGBTQIA+ friendly? (Spoiler alert: YES!)

Accepted Answer

YES loud, proud, and with confetti cannons!

I’m part of the LGBTQIA+ community myself, so creating a safe, joyful, and inclusive space is at the very heart of everything I do. You deserve to feel completely seen, celebrated, and comfortable being your full, fabulous self and I’ll be cheering you on every step of the way. Your love is magic, and I’m here for all of it.

Question 3

We hate having our photo taken!

Accepted Answer

Me too!!!

Let's be honest, having a snog and copping a feel in front of camera is a smidge weird and not something you do every day (unless you do, no judgement here!!) but I promise to try my best to make you feel as comfortable as possible! 
(Normally by falling into a bush or something similar!)

I want to capture the real you!! If you've got a special way you hold hands or maybe a way you snuggle each other? Every couple fold into each other a certain way, and that's what I want to document!
We have fun, a giggle and hopefully you'll not even notice me crawling along the floor to capture you belly laughing together!

Question 4

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes, of course!
Full public liability insurance and professional indemnity cover which I can happily send over to your venue if required.

Question 5

Do you travel for weddings?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely!

While I’m based in Norfolk (with lots of love for my old stomping ground Essex too), I’m always up for a road trip. Whether you’re tying the knot in a London warehouse or a Scottish castle — I’m there, bags packed.

Question 6

Do you charge for travel?

Accepted Answer

I love to travel!! I literally will go anywhere for a slice of wedding cake!!
Travel expenses up to 100 miles are included in all full day packages!

If the wedding is over 1 hour away from me or if prep coverage starts before 10am I will ask for accommodation the night prior to the wedding to be paid for so I’m close to you to reduce stress and worry. The cost of a low priced hotel like a cheeky Premier Inn is fine by me. Don't worry, this will be booked by me and added to your final balance. If you’ve booked two of us, we always share a twin room too so no need to pay for two rooms.

Question 7

Do you offer shorter coverage for small weddings or elopements?

Accepted Answer

Sure do! 
Whether you’re having a backyard bash with your besties or running off for a quiet ceremony just the two of you, I’ve got bespoke options that fit more intimate plans. 
Let me know what coverage you're looking for and I'll make a package just for you!

Question 8

How do we book?

Accepted Answer

Email me! (or get in touch here)

I do a little happy dance and also do my best to reply to all enquiries within 24 hours, so keep an eye on your emails (and that pesky spam folder) and I'll come back to you with all the info.

We can set up a chat over email and I’ll give you all the next steps or we jump on a zoom call if you fancy “meeting” me (and probably my pyjamas). When you're ready to go ahead, I will send over my contract and details for the 25% deposit to be paid to secure your date (and then the rest of the balance is due one month before your wedding).

Question 9

What actually happens before the big day?

Accepted Answer

Once you're all booked in, I’ll check in with you in the lead up and then around 3 months before I send you my on the day questionnaire.

Then we'll arrange a meeting around 4-6 weeks before your big day, this is usually after you have had your final timings from your venue so you know your final plans. We natter about your timings and your family dynamics as we like to learn everyone's names so we're part of your 'I do crew' and fully immersed in your day!

Question 10

We're awkward in front of the camera - can you help?

Accepted Answer

Of course!
I never pose you, but if you want, I’ll happily give you very gentle directions and prompts but I promise to make it fun. I just want to capture you, being you! It’ll feel like hanging out with a mate, not a photoshoot.

(Basically, I’ll stalk you from a bush while you have a chat and a cheeky snog.)

Question 11

Do you take group photos?

Accepted Answer

Of course, if you want them!!

It's normally the only time that families are all together in one place so we can happily make the most of it! I do feel they are super important however I wouldn't recommend any more than 6-8 group combinations, which shouldn't take any longer than 30 minutes (unless we're hunting for Grandma as she's propping up the free bar!!)
I'll make it fun but the last thing you need is an aching jaw from standing in one spot and smiling for too long! At your final details meeting we will chat all about your important people and prioritise your list.

Trust me, it can be like herding cats at times! (Drunk feisty cats on cat nip haha)
Please don't feel like you have to be pressured by an Aunt to have 16 photos with your second cousin that you haven't seen since your 4th birthday party either!! Obviously if you just want super chill documentary candid coverage with no formal group shots, that's totally cool too!
Your day, your rules!!

Question 12

Want to find out more?

Accepted Answer

Pop to my helpful wedding timeline guide here:

Question 13

Do you offer a sneak peek?

Accepted Answer

I select a few special images, edit and then upload them to a mini private online gallery a few days after your wedding so you can have a little taste of what's to come.

I then proudly share them for the world to see on my social media.
(With your permission, obviously!)

Question 14

What happens when you edit our photos?

Accepted Answer

All your photos are lovingly hand edited in my signature style, bright, true-to-colour, and full of warmth. I want them to feel like your day actually looked, no crazy filters or trendy tones that’ll age in five minutes.

Question 15

So how long do we need to wait?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the time of the year and how far into the wedding season your date is, but on average somewhere between 8 - 12 weeks after the day.

Sometimes it's a little less, sometimes it's a little more!

When you get your sneak peek I will also let you know how many are in my edit queue before you so you have a more accurate timescale. You are also more than welcome to check in with me to see where you are on my list!

Question 16

How many images do we actually get?

Accepted Answer

Honestly, it really varies from wedding to wedding.
It depends on all sorts of things, the weather and what's happening, it’s such a hard question!

However for a full day package I would expect at least 900 colour and black & white images uploaded to your online gallery. If your wedding is in the summer, and lots is going on, more than 1200 images is not uncommon, at present the biggest gallery had just over 1,600 images.

That said, part of what you are paying me to do is spend hours curating the best of the best and quality over quantity is still very important to me too.

Question 17

Do we get high-res images and an online gallery?

Accepted Answer

Oh yes!! You sure do!

All your final images are delivered in a beautiful password protected online gallery — perfect for downloading, sharing with family and friends, or printing to your heart’s content. 
And yes, they’re all full resolution and ready to go.

Question 18

Can we order prints or albums from you?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely.

You are more than welcome to source your own products but I offer gorgeous, professional albums and prints that will make your photos sing. 
No flimsy photobooks here—these are the real deal, made to last and be loved forever.

Question 19

Are you available for pre-wedding or proposal shoots?

Accepted Answer

Yes please! 
I love getting to know you before the big day, and proposal shoots are always bursting with joy (and happy tears). They're also a fab way to feel comfy in front of the camera before the wedding.

Question 20

Do you photograph non-traditional weddings? (Yes please! The quirkier the better)

Accepted Answer

YES!

Give me costume changes, hand written personal vows, tattooed rings, drag performances, whatever feels like you. 
I live for the non-traditional, offbeat, colourful and creative. Let’s make it totally unique.

Question 21

Why is it "Pinky Promise" Photography?

Accepted Answer

As the blurb across my website says,
“The most sacred, serious vow anyone can ever swear to.
These promises come straight from the heart and are sworn to value”
(Thanks Urban Dictionary!)

Insert more cheese, but it's true. Marriage is the strongest 'Pinky Promise' you can make with anyone, so I thought the name was pretty fitting. You swear to annoy the same person for the rest of your existence, and that's pretty special!

It also stands with my ethics and ethos, I don't plan to annoy you but I swear I will make sure your day is as awesome as it can be and I'll be there with my camera to capture it!

Question 22

The million dollar question....Why should we pick you?

Accepted Answer

Without sounding super cheesy, I feel so honoured when couples pick me to capture their day! *cringe*

I feel so lucky to call this my 'job'. To be able to drop into one of the happiest days of your life and to document it for you is pretty awesome if you ask me!
At the end of the day, I'm just a 'normal' person (I'll admit, slightly nerdy and a little bit weird!) who gets to work with 'normal' couples.
​
If you want Colin the Caterpillar as a wedding cake, you do that! (We did!!)
A bride that wants to do a speech as their partner is too nervous, hell yeah, team work!
People that don't want to put on a front to please everyone and do it how they imagined it!

Amazing humans who want to do their wedding day their way.
