FAQs
Where are you located? Do you travel?
I am based in North West London, but happy to travel to you/your chosen location. Any travel expense will be factored into the final booking rate.
What is your photography style?
I am very flexible in this area and often resemble a chameleon as I got with the energy. I am a big fan of the photo-journalistic (candid) shots where we can get those natural, unique photos but am also happy to give direction on poses etc if required. You tell me what you want and I will shoot - simples :).
Do you shoot with a flash?
Yes, if needed and is dependant on the lighting. Most often I will shoot with a flash indoors and no flash outdoors.
Do you have a second photographer?
I do 95% of my photography alone as I enjoy the bond I form with my clients when it's just me by myself. It's easier to feel like just another friend and seamlessly blend into the day rather than a team of people documenting things. However, I can bring along a second photographer if required, this additional service will be factored into the final booking rate.
Do you have a back-up camera body?
Yes, i always shoot with 2 camera bodies and use a dual-SD card system to ensure all is backed-up as the day progresses.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, I have liability insurance and all of my gear is covered.
How do I book you?
Head over to the Bookings page and send me an email or give me a call and we can go over the details and get to know each other. Once we have agreed on all details and a date, I will send across a very clear contract and usually take a deposit of 50% upon booking, with the remaining balance due on morning of the event (before the event). I am already taking bookings for 2025!
What happens if I get injured before my shoot?
If it's a photoshoot, I will happily reschdeule with you and your deposit will move to a new date.
If it’s a wedding, I do have a limit of liability clause in every wedding contract in case something really bad happens and I am unable to make it to your wedding day. Essentially, if I get injured, I will try my hardest to make it to the wedding no matter what. If I can’t, I will do everything in my power to find a replacement photographer for you. If I am unable to do that, I will give you back your money.
Can I/we meet you before the booking?
Yes, of course! I highly recommend this when it comes to weddings as I like to see the venue before the session.
How long will it take to get my photos back?
For weddings: It usually takes between 6-10 weeks to finish editing a weddings. Each wedding is different, as the volume of photos taken will differ. If you have a specific deadline, I am happy to work with you.
For photoshoots: It usually takes 2-4 weeks, but alike weddings, each photoshoot is different.
Can I have all the unedited photos?
I don't usually give out the unedited photos without an extra fee. If you want to have a chat about this, let me know and we can discuss more.
How will I/we receive the photos?
I can send them in 2 ways, either via a link where you have full access and can download them directly or I will upload to a secure online gallery, where you can download and also order prints.
Can I post the photo on social media?
Yes, of course! I love when people share their images online to friends/family. My one request however, is that you be sure to give me photo credit and include a link (tag on insta) back to my page/website. Oh, also I ask kindly that you do not apply any filters to them or alter the images in any way.
Hey! You made it to the bottom of the page! Congratulations to you. That was some boring stuff. But if you’ve stuck around this long, I think you really should contact me right now about your booking with PoeticVizion photography. I can’t wait to get to know you!
