Professional and experienced wedding photograper in Louth and Lincolnshire
“We can’t recommend Darren enough, he was brilliant and captured every part of the day we wanted. He made us feel so relaxed and took some amazing photographs. Clearly has lots of experience and really has an eye for detail.
We can’t thank him enough for the beautiful photos and for being such a pleasure to have on the day.”
So you’ve chosen your wedding date. You’ve picked your venue. Now it’s time to select a wedding photographer to capture all of the important moments from your most special of days. That’s where I can help you!
As an experienced professional wedding and engagement photographer based in the beautiful Georgian market town of Louth on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, I have been working with couples for many years to create amazing memories of their incredible days. I am very familiar with many venues around Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire and further afield. To find out more about some of the venues that I have photographed weddings at in the past, take a look here.
The most common question I get asked is ‘what packages do you offer’?
I firmly believe that no two couples are the same and no two wedding days are either. For that reason I offer two starting points for your wedding photography: Full Day coverage which includes practically everything throughout your wedding day so that you can relax safe in the knowledge that I am capturing images that really tell the story of your day; and Half Day coverage which, while shorter in duration, means that I am still there to photograph all of the key moments at the heart of your most special of days. Let me tell you about what I can offer you as your wedding photographer in Louth, Lincolnshire and beyond …
All Full Day and Half Day wedding photography includes:
-
The very first thing that we need to do to get the ball rolling on your wedding day photography is to arrange to meet in person. A meeting in person is always best as it means I can find out about your plans for your day, any arrangements that you have already made an to answer questions that you will have. After that we can meet again as necessary before your special day. I would always want to meet with you both again around two weeks beforehand - just to go through your final arrangements and make sure we all know what’s happening!
-
You will no doubt be excited to see your images as soon as possible after your wedding day. While it will take me around six weeks to get your finished images to you, I will get a sneak peek of a handful of your images available for you to view within 48 hours.
-
I edit all images individually using my judgement to show them to their best. I don’t use filters, instead using my experience to create images that are edited in the style you see here on this website as well as my social media.
Your images have full printing rights so that you can print them as you wish and share them with family and friends.
-
You will receive all of the images that have been fully edited in high resolution on USB which comes in a presentation box to keep them safe and secure. Your images are backed up too, so you ca be safe in the knowledge that should anything happen to your digital images I have them archived.
-
During the editing process there will be certain images that inevitably jump out at me! As I am editing your images, I will pick out my favourites and will provide prints of these images to you in your USB presentation box - a little starter set which you can add to as you wish!
Full Day
Giving you the freedom and flexibility to really make a day of it!
2024 & 2025 Full Day weddings from only £950
My Full Day wedding photography includes my time throughout your wedding day - from your final preparations and getting ready right through until the evening, this option ensures that we capture everything that your day has to offer! The Full Day option really does tell the complete story of your most special day. Depending on the time of your ceremony, time can be used beforehand to capture candid images of your guests arriving and of the venue ahead of the ceremony itself. Once your marriage ceremony is underway, I work discreetly to capture all the moments of the occasion as well as your guests’ reactions. From there, we will use the time available to photograph ‘formal’ portraits with your family and friends as well as the all-important time that you need for just the two of you in the middle of your day. If you’re having speeches, those are covered, as well as any moments that you particularly would like photographing. As an experienced wedding photographer in Louth, Lincolnshire and elsewhere, I will always be looking for opportunities to create images to make sure you have lasting memories of your day. Into the evening, I will be around to make sure we get all the moments once the party gets started and we’ll bring the evening to a close with some fun and creative images to round out my coverage of your day.
What’s more is that included in your Full Day wedding photography is an Engagement photoshoot so that we can get to know each other more and you get an idea of my shooting style, what to expect on your wedding day and many fun, comfortable and relaxed images to add to your wedding photograph collection. To find out more, head over to my Engagement photography page.
Half Day
Covering all the important moments of your most special of days
2024 & 2025 Half Day weddings from only £550
Half Day wedding photography is the ideal option when you have a more compact day, or are not so bothered about having certain aspects of the day photographed. For example, you may not want your preparations captured or don’t want such long coverage into the evening. My approach is just the same: your marriage ceremony photographed in the same way, your time together for portraits in the same style, and using every chance I get to create magical memories that you might not even realise had happened! My Half Day coverage means that you still get all of the important elements at the heart of your day photographed such as the ceremony itself, portraits afterwards, speeches and more, through until you’ve concluded your first dances. When we meet before your big day, we will discuss how to make the best use of the time on the day to ensure that I have ample opportunity to capture all of the things that you really want in your wedding images.

“My husband and I chose Darren after a number of recommendations and positive reviews - we were not disappointed! Darren planned all of the photos we wanted with us and his attention to detail over how to get the best out of the venue was amazing.”
