Pricing
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
Prices start at £695. This is for the digital only package - details below.
I also offer a single album package which costs £1045 - details below.
Digital Only Package - £695
• Full-day coverage (typically from wedding prep. through to the first dance)
• All images from the day - Approximately 250+ fully-edited images provided in full-resolution online and on a free USB stick
• Free pre-wedding/engagement photoshoot at a mutually agreeable date & venue/location prior to the wedding date.
Single Album Package - £1045
• Everything as listed under the digital package
• Plus a 30x30cm 15 spread (30 pages) album. I design the initial layout, with your preferred colours/style and then I provide a digital preview so that you have final approval of the design/style/layout before it is printed.
A booking fee of £100 will need to be paid to secure the date and confirm the booking.
This is deducted from the total cost - for example the Digital Only Package at £695 - you would pay the £100 booking fee to secure the date and the remaining £595 would be due 1 month before the wedding date as the final payment.
I don't currently offer a further tier beyond the single album package as I prefer to offer a more bespoke package at this point as it all depends on what you want to include - these can be extra pages in the album, an album box, extra albums, fine-art prints etc. We can discuss this and a total cost will be provided before you commit.
If you're undecided about whether you will want an album or prints, please feel free to book me for the digital only package to start with. The album option above, as one example, can be added at the same price (£350) whenever you want, even after the wedding if you'd prefer.
THE PRE-WEDDING / ENGAGEMENT PHOTOSHOOT
Once you have decided to book me we can discuss setting a date for this. It is a great opportunity to get to know each other a little better and also for you to get used to having your photograph taken together, to see how I work and to get some relaxed photos/portraits of you both away from the pressures of the wedding day itself
This can be at a location of your choice, maybe somewhere that is special to you both, or I am happy to make suggestions as well.
THE VENUE & PRE-WEDDING DISCUSSIONS
If your venue is one I haven't worked at before I always make a point of personally visiting in advance, this I arrange directly with the venue myself if necessary.
As we get close to your wedding date I will also be in touch for a last chat/discussion to ensure that we have everything covered and I have all the details I need.
This meeting could be combined with either the pre-wedding photoshoot or even better if you plan to visit your venue in the last few weeks before your wedding date, as I can combine my visit to the venue at the same time.
WEDDING DAY, GROUP SHOTS & DETAILS
I will be your photographer for the duration of your wedding day but on some occasions I may have a 2nd photographer with me. What they capture can be seen as an extra as I will capture the key moments of the day whether there is a 2nd photographer or not.
My style is probably best classified as documentary, meaning I like to capture natural photos of the wedding and the guests, the emotions along with the details and the venue itself, to tell the story of your day.
I combine this with the more standard portraiture as it is important to try and allocate some time for group shots and portraits. These are a chance to have some more formal portraits with family and friends, and also of you both on your own.

If you'd like to book me as your wedding photographer, firstly thank you for considering me, and secondly please feel free to use the webform on the contact page, email me at simonnicholasphoto@gmail.com or call on 07398 644992 (please do leave a message on my voicemail if I am unable to answer your call).
FAMILY PORTRAITS & NEWBORN PHOTOSHOOTS
Prices start with a digital only package at £200 for both Family Portrait and Newborn photoshoots, this includes:
• Flexible photoshoot timings - this can be as long as is needed - typically 1-3 hours is enough time to capture a variety of images.
• Fully-edited digital images provided in full-resolution via an online service (usually Google Drive), where you can download them. Usually this would be 10-20 photos.
This does not include any printed media, but you are of course free to use the digital images I provide to source your own printed products.
I am also happy to provide quotes for any prints or albums you may want - I have a couple of high-quality print suppliers I use frequently. The cost will be in addition to the digital-only package cost.
Unfortunately I do not currently have access to a suitable indoor location, but I am happy to come to your home, or use an outdoor location as long as the weather is good.
I do have portable battery powered lighting and a backdrop kit which I can use at your home, or we can just use your home as the backdrop - the choice is yours!
I generally use a white backdrop (which can provide a brilliant white to muted grey background, depending on lighting) but if you have a specific colour backdrop in mind let me know, I am always happy to source additional backdrops as and when needed.
Please get in touch if you would like to discuss and/or book me for your family photoshoot.
As above I can be contacted via the webform here, by email: simonnicholasphoto@gmail.com or by phone: 07398 644992.
EVENTS/PROM PHOTOSHOOTS
As above except prices start with a digital only package at £200 for Prom photoshoots, this includes.
• Flexible photoshoot timings - A couple of hours is usually enough time to capture a variety of images.
• Fully-edited digital images provided in full-resolution via an online service (usually Google Drive), where you can download them. Usually this would be 30-40 photos.
Prom photoshoots usually mean I would be shooting portraits, some documentary styles as well perhaps and pictures with the car if you're having one, at your home or chosen location. In addition I am happy to photograph the arrival at the Prom venue.
