weddings michellewildman.co.uk Welcome and Congratulations! What an exciting time! I’m a wedding photographer dedicated to capturing the story of your special day in all its glorious detail - working unobtrusively alongside you in a relaxed and fun way. Once the honeymoon is over, your dress is packed away, and the leftover champagne has been drunk, you’ll love nothing more than looking at your beautiful photos and reliving those special moments! It would be my privilege to be part of your big day, so please get in touch for more information or to arrange a consultation. michellewildman.co.uk michellewildman.co.uk My Style My photography is a reflection of me and my passion for telling stories and capturing and sharing beautiful moments. I love what I do and bring that with me when I work with you - my aim is to put you at your ease, listen to you, and have some fun along the way! I believe the most beautiful photos emerge when people are just being themselves, and that’s why I work discreetly in a photojournalistic style to capture your special moments and experiences without getting in the way. I’ll be with you all day, including your preparations, ceremony, reception, wedding breakfast, speeches, and into the evening for the first dance. Plus it’s always fun to sneak away for a few portrait shots of just the two of you before the party really kicks off! michellewildman.co.uk michellewildman.co.uk We love your relaxed style, but How does the process work need some traditional poses too. before, during and after the Is that possiblr? wedding day? Of course! As your photographer, I am more than happy to capture some beautiful group shots of your special people to frame and treasure after your big day. A small section of the day (usually just after the ceremony) can easily be dedicated to some posed, traditional group shots, if you so wish. But I hate having my photo taken! That’s where the engagement shoot comes into its own, and exactly why I include them in all of my packages! It’s really important to me that you feel relaxed and happy in front of my camera, and spending time together with no pressure during an engagement shoot can help you get used to having your photo taken, and show you how gorgeous you really look! Do you travel for weddings? Yes, I do. I am based in London, but can and do travel all over the UK for commissions. For an event that requires an overnight stay, I charge accommodation rates at cost. If you are getting married abroad, please contact me for a bespoke quote. michellewildman.co.uk I understand that planning a wedding can sometimes be a busy, and occassionally stressful, time! Usually, we’ll start off with a relaxed consultation to discuss your requirements in more detail, and decide exactly what you’d like. Once that’s done, it’s onto the Engagement Shoot, which takes around 1-2 hours and is arranged at a mutually convenient time and location. As for the Big Day itself, all you need to do is relax and enjoy yourself - I’ll take care of the rest! I will be with you from your preparations to just after the first dance, capturing all your precious memories, funny moments and tears of joy. If you have chosen a frame or album as part of your package, we’ll then have a short viewing session 3-4 weeks later, to select your favourite images for printing. How do we book you? If you are interested in finding out more, please get in touch using the contact details overleaf and we can arrange an informal chat to discuss your options. Following that, if you’d like to go ahead and book, I ask for a 50% deposit to secure your date, with the balance due 6 weeks before your wedding. michellewildman.co.uk “On our engagement shoot, we had so much fun! You made us both feel so comfortable. and guided us in what we should do which made everything so easy. On the wedding day, you slotted in with everybody perfectly. You captured the day so, so beautifully, showcasing many of our amazing memories. We’re so happy to have had you as our photographer. We’d definitely recommend you to our friends.” Charlotte & James “We were so nervous at first, as we weren’t used to being in front of the camera. But you were fantastic and really put us at ease, encouraging us so the whole thing felt natural and fun – and as a result the smiles we have in the photos are very real! We’re so happy that these pictures will last a lifetime, capturing that special moment as we became husband and wife.” Michelle & Barry “You were absolutely fantastic because of the way you blended in, were so unobtrusive and natural, and yet managed to capture loads of great shots. I usually hate having my picture taken but with you I felt relaxed and didn’t mind. I don’t think other people noticed you were there (I mean that in the nicest possible way!), and even my mum was happy! You really, really captured the atmosphere perfectly – so thank you!!” Henrietta & Richard michellewildman.co.uk michellewildman.co.uk Get in touch - I ’d love to hear from you!
