Wedding Photographer in Yorkshire – Top Questions Answered (and My Honest Answers)
Planning a wedding is exciting, but let’s be honest, it can also feel overwhelming. With so many suppliers to choose from, couples often ask me the same key questions when they’re looking for a wedding photographer in Yorkshire. So I thought I’d put together this blog post with my honest answers. Hopefully, this helps you get to know me and makes your decision a little easier.
1. Do you travel for weddings outside Barnsley or Yorkshire?
Yes, absolutely.
Although I’m based in Barnsley, I regularly photograph weddings all across Yorkshire and the UK.
For weddings that require more than 3 hours of travel, I simply add a £60 accommodation fee, so I can arrive the day before, stay fresh, and give you 100% on your wedding day.
Destination weddings abroad? Always happy to chat about those too.
2. How much does full-day wedding photography cost?
My full-day photography package for 2026 starts at £1,299.

Each album is designed to tell the story of your day from start to finish, so it doesn’t feel like a random collection of photos — it feels like your wedding story.

You’ll receive a sneak peek within 72 hours.
Your full gallery is usually ready within 4–10 weeks, depending on the season.
Your wedding video teaser will be ready in the first week after your wedding and the cinematic highlight film usually is ready between 1-3 months after the big day.

On average:
Full day weddings: around 500+ images
Intimate weddings: 150+ images
All photos are delivered in both high-resolution and web-friendly formats.
6. Do you offer engagement or pre-wedding photo shoots?
Yes, and I always recommend them.
They help you relax in front of the camera, get comfortable with me, and start your wedding journey with beautiful, natural photos. Read more about engagement photo shoots here.

When the weather and venue allow — yes.
Drone images can add an incredible perspective to your gallery.
