Hey, I’m James

The guy that genuinely cares about your wedding. I want to help you create the wedding of your dreams. The vision you already have is beautiful, but together, we can make it incredible. I’m not just a wedding photographer, I’m a laidback 3rd wheeler that lands to your prep with an Iced Latte, and I won’t say no if your mammy offers me a sausage bap (truth). I create stunning imagery, a story to be told for years to come, I want to help you bring your love to life.

Derry Wedding Photographer, Northern Ireland

Why choose me?

 

Every couple’s story is unique, and I make sure that’s reflected in your photos. I always take the time to understand what’s most important to you. Through my wedding questionnaire, you get to highlight the moments and people that matter most, so I can focus on capturing what truly reflects your love story. 

Wedding Consultations are great, but what stands out most is a timeline for your wedding day, this enables you to have a stress free experience with me on your team. You will know exactly what’s going to happen next. 

Don’t just take my word for it, read my reviews at the bottom.

WEDDING ALBUMS

My wedding albums are a beautiful keepsake that I highly recommend for your home. They’re not just a way to relive your special day—they’re a timeless treasure for future generations.

My top-of-the-line Paisley-style albums are truly stunning, and past couples have absolutely loved them. It’s more than just photographs; it’s the experience—the touch, the scent, and the overall feel of the album—that makes it stand out.

Once your wedding day has passed, your online gallery provides all the tools you need to select your favorite images for the album. From there, I carefully design each spread to create a seamless, storybook-style layout that beautifully tells the tale of your day.

The album process is simple and stress-free, and I promise you, this final step will be the perfect finishing touch to your family heirloom.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT MAKES YOU DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER PHOTOGRAPHERS

Me? I’ve been told from my past couples that I’m fun, passionate and an all rounded great professional third wheel.

My style of photography is documentary with a twist. I want to capture the heartfelt moments, the unscripted, the flow but also the planned. I’m abit of a wildcard, but I truly love this approach. It’s not all about taking photos, its more so the planning of your unique day and showing you that I wont miss a photograph that you require.

My go-to words are Relaxed, Romantic and Fun Loving.

WE HATE HAVING OUR PHOTO TAKEN, WE DON'T WANT LOADS OF POSED SHOTS, IS THAT OK?

Sure thing!

I know at first-hand what that feeling is like. It can be daunting standing in-front of a camera but I promise you, I can help with your anxiety on this with little actions I’ve picked up over the years – I used to model and have a camera randomly pointed at me too – yikes.  Most of the photos I take during your wedding will be natural, unposed and relaxed. Occasionally I will steal you for 10 – 20 mins to capture some intimate moments of you both, but trust me, you will look back and love them.

Camera Shy? Here’s some info that might help

Can we request specific shots?

I completely understand that every couple has specific photographs they want from their day. That’s why I include a section in my questionnaire where you can tell me exactly what’s most important to you. Whether it’s a particular moment or a set of shots, I’ll make sure to prioritize them based on your preferences, so nothing is missed and everything that matters most to you is captured beautifully.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR OUR PHOTOS TO BE READY?

During your wedding day, I’ll share a little sneak peek of the moments we’ve captured so far. After that, you can expect to receive your full gallery within 4 to 6 weeks.

How do you approach wedding day timelines?

In the first intial meeting I ask you what your wedding day looks like. Once I know all the deeds, I will be able to form a rough timeline of your day. If you decide that I’m the guy for you, then 6 weeks before your wedding day I will send you a questionaire for you to fill out, this is where you spill absolutely everything about your wedding (and you will know alot more about it then). 4 weeks before the day – We meet up for another coffee (Yay) and go over a more structured timeline so you know everything about your wedding day as it flows.

Do you require a deposit, and when is the balance due?

In order to secure your wedding date, I require a non-refundable deposit of £300. However, if you prefer, I also offer a flexible payment plan: a cost-of-living deposit of £150 per month for 2 months. After the date is secured: You can choose to pay whatever amount you’re comfortable with, whenever you’d like, and any payments you make will be deducted from your overall balance.

DO YOU HAVE INSURANCE?

I sure do! I have only but the best protection for myself and for you on your wedding day! If you or your venue would like a copy to view this, I can give you a copy as proof. Safety first.
