Wedding Photography

I offer a very competitively priced wedding photography service, offering a mix of candid/reportage and formal photographs. You can see examples of my work from recent weddings in the gallery section.

Prices start at £475 (plus travelling expenses) depending on how much of your day you would like photographed.

Details of wedding photography packages:

  • I shoot a mixture of candid/reportage and formal shots. I can adapt this to suit the taste of the bride and groom. I try to shoot unobtrusively where possible, but it is necessary to request people's cooperation for some shots, especially formal photographs.
  • If available on the date of the wedding, my assistant may take extra candid photographs during the day, working in a similar style to the main photographer.
  • A comprehensive selection of photographs will be provided in high resolution on CD-R or DVD-R, along with an order form spreadsheet for easy ordering and calculation of costs.
  • All prints are produced by a professional quality photographic lab.
  • You are free to print as many copies as you like from the digital files provided. (See notes)
  • I encourage the bride and groom to provide a list of things that they would particularly like to have photographed on the day, and I endeavour to provide all of these. However, it is not possible to guarantee that I will be able to photograph everything on the list. I also request a list of any formal group photographs that are required.
  • I use Nikon digital SLR camera equipment, including a backup camera body and lenses.
  • I follow a strict double data backup policy to protect the images of your special day once the images are transferred to computer. In addition I keep an off-site data backup.
  • Backup options: Should I be unable to attend due to illness or other emergency, I would contact you as soon as possible and endeavour to find a replacement photographer. However, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to find a replacement. In either case, my fees would be refunded in full if I were unable to attend.
  • I am based in the Three Bridges area, please contact me to discuss travelling expenses

Package 4 Full day £665 £740
Additional hours Per hour not agreed in advance +£45 +£45
  • All above packages include prints up to a value of £40.
  • Albums not included. Many couples find creating their album to be an enjoyable and rewarding activity, allowing them to tell the story of their special day in the way that they remember it. I do not currently provide an album design and collation service, but if required, I can supply blank wedding albums from £50 (price depends on the album type required) in which the couple may arrange the prints themselves.
  • Engagement portrait session (at another date before the wedding, up to 2 hours): add £50
  • Print costs:
Size \ Quantity 1  -  9 10  -  24 25  -  49 50  -  74 75  -  99 100+

(Note: quantities are for each print size ordered together.)

Payment basis:

  • 30% non-refundable deposit payable on booking, remainder of fee due on the day or I will accept payment beforehand if preferred.
  • In the unlikely event of cancellation by the bride and groom, any fees paid beforehand (except the non-refundable deposit) will be refunded. If the wedding is postponed and I am not able to photograph the wedding on the new date, the deposit will not be refunded, but any other fees paid beforehand will be refunded. If I am able to photograph the wedding on the new date, an extra charge of 25% of the total amount will be payable due to the earlier cancelled date.

Notes:

  • The copyright for all the images created on the day remain the photographer's intellectual property. However, if the bride and groom are willing to provide model release consent for the photographer to use images in which they are recognisable for promotional and commercial purposes, I will grant permission to the bride and groom to make unlimited print copies for non-commercial use.
  • Reasonable use of electronic images up to a maximum width of 800 pixels (for example, on the bride and groom's website) is permitted on the condition that images are always credited to David M Ebling and the original high-resolution files are not made publicly available. Written permission may be granted for other uses on request.
  • If the reception is to be covered, I will not require a formal place at the reception, but something to eat during the day would be appreciated as carrying food as well as camera equipment is not practical.
  • Please provide me with a full timetable for the day. If you have planned any unusual features in your special day, such as an order-of-service that is in any way out-of-the-ordinary, or fireworks being let off, please be sure to mention these. This will help to ensure that I am in the right place at the right time. It may be beneficial for me to attend the rehearsal the day before in some cases, so advanced notice is appreciated.
  • My liability is strictly limited to the amount of the fee that has been paid.
