Booking & Fees

The practical side — how to book, what to expect, and the reassurances that matter.

  • Get in touch via the contact form with your date and venue. If Kevin is available, he'll reply personally with package details and fees.

    To confirm the booking, a signed contract and a non-refundable booking fee of £200 secures the date. No date can be held without both. The balance is due 28 days before the wedding.

    If you'd like to talk things through first, you're very welcome to visit the studio in Malmesbury for a coffee — just say so in your message.

  • In almost twenty years of shooting weddings, this has never happened. In the very unlikely event that it did, Kevin has a close circle of highly capable photographers who work in a similar documentary style and whose work he trusts completely. They would step in without hesitation.

    If none of that circle were available, a full, unconditional refund would be given immediately. No caveats.

  • Yes. Full professional indemnity insurance and public liability insurance are in place. Many wedding venues insist that every supplier holds appropriate insurance — if yours does, details are available on request at any time.

    It's also worth checking that any photographer you consider uses has both types of cover in place, not just one.

The Photography

How Kevin works, what he shoots with, and what you'll receive.

  • Yes, always. Every wedding is photographed by Kevin personally — from the morning preparations through to the last dance. The editing is also Kevin's own work, not outsourced.

    You'll never find your wedding handed to an associate or processed by someone who wasn't there on the day.

  • Documentary — sometimes called photojournalism. The job is to observe the day as it unfolds, unobtrusively, and photograph it honestly.

    That means blending in rather than directing, working close to the action without drawing attention, and capturing the real moments — the glances, the reactions, the quiet in-between parts of the day — rather than asking you to recreate them for the camera.

    A small number of formal group photographs can be made quickly, if you'd like them. But they'll never be the focus.

  • Kevin shoots exclusively on Fujifilm. He was the first wedding photographer ever to be appointed a Fujifilm X-Photographer ambassador — a relationship that has shaped how he shoots for well over a decade.

    He works with two professional-grade Fujifilm bodies throughout the day, with full backup equipment to hand at every point. If you'd like the specific gear breakdown, the Fujifilm Hub covers it in detail.

  • Every image is hand-edited by Kevin personally and delivered in both colour and black and white. The editing involves careful colour correction, cropping, and the application of Kevin's custom LUT-based film-profile looks — built from scratch, not off the shelf.

    Everything included in a booking is set out on the fees page.

  • Yes. A small number of formal group photographs can be made quickly and efficiently — three to five is usually the right number. Guests don't want to stand around waiting, and your time is better spent with the people who came to celebrate with you.

    For weddings where a larger number of formals is expected — multicultural celebrations, large guest lists, specific family requirements — a second photographer can be arranged to manage those specifically, leaving Kevin free to continue with the documentary coverage throughout.

  • About a month before the wedding, Kevin sends a detailed questionnaire covering the final logistics: timing, the schedule for the day, names of key family members, and any specific moments that matter to you.

    He shoots with two professional-grade Fujifilm cameras and carries full backup equipment throughout. He checks in with the venue in advance where it's useful, and always leaves with enough time that traffic isn't a problem.

Travel

Where Kevin photographs, and what that costs.

  • Yes. Kevin is based in the market town of Malmesbury and travels throughout the UK for weddings. Travel and accommodation within the UK are included in every package, with no additional fees.

    He photographed a great many weddings across Europe in the past. Following Brexit, working as a photographer within the EU is no longer legally possible for a UK-based supplier. Kevin is, however, available for weddings outside the EU — please mention it in your enquiry if you're considering an international location.

After the Wedding

What happens once the day is done.

  • Kevin edits the wedding personally, giving the images the same care and attention they were given on the day. Most galleries are delivered within six to eight weeks — often sooner outside of the busiest times of year.

    You'll receive a link to your private online gallery with everything included: colour photographs, black and white photographs, the photofilm, and every file at full resolution to download and keep. From there, you can design and order albums, prints, or framed photographs at your own pace — directly from the gallery, at any time.

— ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER

A few other things worth knowing.

  1. Welsh, rugby-shaped, and a Judo black belt

    Kevin is Welsh, played rugby for many years at London Welsh, and holds a 1st Dan Black Belt in Judo.

  2. The first Fujifilm wedding ambassador

    He was the first ever wedding photographer appointed as a Fujifilm X-Photographer ambassador, and has photographed with Fujifilm cameras ever since.

  3. Talks around the world

    Kevin has given talks and lectures about wedding photography in Japan, the United States, Argentina, and across Europe.

  4. Country music on the radio

    Away from photography, he presents a Country Music Radio Show on The Incapable Staircase.

  5. Bill Gates, Kylie Minogue, and a hot dog

    Kevin once bought Bill Gates a hot dog because Gates did not have the right change. He has also appeared on television with Kylie Minogue. Both of these things are true.

  6. A perfectly reasonable fear of toads

    He has a strange fear of toads. No further explanation has yet improved the situation.

None of this affects his photography.
