Photographer?

HappyBrownDiamonds179, 26 February, 2015 at 13:43 Posted on Planning 0 17

Hi all, we have just booked our venue at Smeetham Hall in Sudbury... after much indecision! We are now looking at trying to lock in a decent priced but great photographer and all the other details. Has anyone got any suggestions / reviews for photographers?

Thanks for any hints or tips

    You could try the supplier directory here at Hitched!

    I'm a wedding photographer and travel across the UK. You'll find that many of us here will travel to Suffolk - lucky you!!

    You can have a nosey at my work via the links below.

    Fairclough Photography are based in the North but I think they travel all over the country and their pictures are amazing ?

    Smeetham Hall in Sudbury ? quite close to Hengrave Hall where I am a recommended supplier? Lovely looking venue by the way.

    Have you looked at the photographers listed on Smeetham Hall site.

    Do you have an ideas as yet what kind of budget you'd be working with, or what style of photography you are looking for? That may help with suggestions Smiley smile

    We work in Suffolk quite often so feel free to have a peep at our site (link) and we might be able to point you in the right direction.

    Hi, I am not quite sure as to style etc, price seems to be a minimum of 1000 pounds from what I can see looking around, would love for it to be under that. The photography for me is really important, I really want some great beautiful photos. It was actually one of the reasons I chose the venue as I thought the photos there would be amazing.

    Could anyone let me know what the different styles are I should be looking at?

    Thanks all

    "great beautiful photos" come at a price I'm afraid, the more experienced a photographer the more it will cost and as you say you have chosen a beautiful venue to get beautiful photos.

    Have a look at my site, mainly Documentary (story telling) if one of you doesn't like a camera in your face this this is ideal but I do do the group photos of family and bride & groom photos if you want. https://www.nevilleplanes.com/

    I've found this article about wedding photography styles for you: https://www.herecomestheguide.com/wedding-ideas/photography-style-glossary

    Personally I prefer an artistic and photojournalistic approach with some posed candid shots . It's more contemporary and non intrusive so your wedding flows naturally.

    I think there is a typo in that url Bruce.......? those interested (and its worth a looksee) try http://www.bruceneville.co.uk

    Generally, I would always suggest a photographer who knows the venue or is local...they know the other vendors at your wedding, the maitre'd, the chef, the planner , the venue manager, the registrars etc etc......this relationship helps with the flow of your day and more often than not, allows more flexibility on the day itself.

    Did the venue give you any help in finding a photographer? It is a stunning venue so I'm sure they will have a long list of names.
