Question 1

What is your style of wedding photography?

Accepted Answer

My photography approach is characterised by a natural and unobtrusive style.  Before coming to wedding photography I shot editorial fashion and celebrities for magazines and record companies so I bring that to the mix - so, beautiful, very quick, fun and calming when needed. I've been refered to as being "stealthy" when capturing moments during Weddings Receptions. I blend into the surroundings, demonstrating sensitivity during emotional speeches to capture the most poignant moments.

Question 2

Will we meet in person before our wedding?

Accepted Answer

Certainly - if it's possible! I believe it's important for us to meet, ensuring that you are comfortable with me and letting me know anything you'd like me to include. This allows you to ask any questions about your wedding and my photography coverage. allows for a walk-around, discussing your ideas and receiving valuable  pointers. While I've photographed weddings with remote discussions, especially during Covid, all options are open based on your availability and location.

Question 3

Have you photographed our venue before?

Accepted Answer

I have been photographing weddings for over 20 years - if I haven't covered your venue I will ensure that I visit it before your wedding.  I am very quick to pick places up and will not miss out on great locations on the day.

Question 4

How long have your been a wedding photographer?

Accepted Answer

For the past two decades, I've captured weddings, embarking on this journey just after my own wedding. Transitioning from an editorial background to wedding photography, I discovered a perfect match. I thrive working with people and under time pressure, finding immense joy in the beauty of a wedding day.

Question 5

How long will the wedding photographer stay at our wedding?

Accepted Answer

I provide various packages tailored to your budget and desired coverage duration. The Full Day package is popular, starting with the bride getting ready, covering the ceremony, group and relaxed couple portraits, drinks reception, speeches, and the First Dance, with an additional half-hour. My other option includes coverage from the Ceremony until the First Dance, encompassing the ceremony, formal group portraits, wedding portraits, reception reportage, speeches, and the first dance.

Question 6

When will we receive our photographs?

Accepted Answer

I promise to deliver the best retouched, high resolution digital files to you within 6 weeks of your wedding. The number will depend on the coverage you have chosen.

Question 7

Do you provide wedding albums?

Accepted Answer

I do! I believe that you should print your pictures to enjoy but I do understand that many couples would prefer to print their own photographs.  I offer an album design service and several styles of album from classic bound albums - where the pictures are in-layed under card and bound to coffee table books where the images are printed on a page without overlay.

Question 8

Do you work alone or have an assistant?

Accepted Answer

I work independently with two cameras—one focused on what's in front of me and the other with a long lens capturing the great gossiping moment that is going on discreately in the distance.  Staying in the background, I prioritise a discreet presence to preserve the enjoyment of your day without it feeling like a constant photo shoot.  However, if you'd like a second photographer to cover all or part of your day this can, of course be accomodated.

Question 9

Do you have any reviews that I can look at?

Accepted Answer

I do! I have had some gorgeous, generous couples who, over the years have given me some very lovely reviews - hopefully, you will be able to read from them that I am very easy going and pleasant to work with.  I have a Reviews section on this website or you can see them on Google Reviews under Gillflett.com

Question 10

How do we go about booking you as our wedding photographer

Accepted Answer

So, after signing my Terms & Conditions and completing a Booking Form - where, when etc I ask that you pay me a non-refundable deposit of £500.  Your wedding is then booked.  Payment for your chosen coverage is invoice and due 6 weeks before your wedding date when your schedule will be due too, please.

Question 11

Accepted Answer

Failing being struck down I will be at your wedding!  I do however, have a list of photographers that I have known for many years who are similar in style to me if the worst case happens.
