Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use images I take on my social media & website?

Of course! The whole purpose of the destination wedding mentorship is to build an authentic portfolio of images from real destination weddings.  The only thing we ask is that you wait until the couple receive their full gallery from us before posting.

Are couples made aware that I'll be there on the day?

Yes!  We always make couples aware that up to two additional photographers may be present on their wedding day.

Will I have to do second shooter duties? Carry your bag? Or get boring shots from the back?

Absolutely not! There will of course be sensitive or quiet moments where it’s necessary to give the couple space, particularly during the ceremony, but generally, you can shoot the wedding however you wish.

What's the accommodation like?

It varies between different venues.  We usually stay as close as possible to the venue, typically in a large privately rented home (AirBnb etc.) or a good hotel if nothing suitable is available nearby.  We’ll share details of accommodation with you several months before the day.

Can I bring my partner or friend along with me?

Of course.  You’re welcome to bring a travel companion, and people often combine a destination wedding with a longer trip.  Please be aware that although they can join you at the accommodation, they will not be able to attend the wedding.

Can you give advice on travelling with camera equipment etc?

Yep.  We’ll chat about all the logistical aspects of the trip in our pre-wedding call.  But we’re always available via email or WhatApp if you have questions.
