Professional Photographer

What can you anticipate from Marcus?

I possess a calm and inviting demeanor, while maintaining a high level of professionalism as a photographer.

Like many in this field, I work under a contractual agreement that outlines specific deliverables; however, my experience shows that most photographers go above and beyond these expectations. We dedicate ourselves to capturing the perfect images that reflect our vision. This sincere dedication turns our work into a genuine labor of love, which continues through the thorough editing process that follows the shoot.

My website provides extensive details, but sometimes a simple phone call can clarify any questions you may have.

Feel free to call me at 07961 695321.

Drone Capabilities

Drone photography captures stunning videos and photos from a unique perspective.

An aerial shot at a wedding offers an incredible view with the right setup.

However, several factors can affect drone usage at a location, making flights unpredictable. CAA flight restrictions, weather conditions, and venue flying rules.

If you book a diamond wedding package, we submit a flight plan to the CAA and strive to operate the drone.

I use DJI drones, known for their stunning wedding photographic pictures.

I hold all necessary insurance, operator ID, drone ID, and meet CAA requirements.

How many years of experience do you have?

For over thirty years, I've immersed myself in the art of photography, and what a remarkable journey it has been! My passion drives me to deliver exceptional work on every project, consistently striving to surpass your expectations.

When it comes to post-processing photographs, I am at the top of my game. I use Lightroom to enhance my images and add that distinctive flair.

I'm Marcus, the creative mind behind my photography business, specialising in enchanting wedding photography in beautiful Kent.

How many photos does a photographer take?

Understanding the volume of photographs can be a myth.

The short answer is thousands! But there’s more to it!

Photographers love burst settings to capture multiple wedding photos of the same moment, ensuring they can choose the best shot where everyone looks great!

I value quality, and take plenty of photos, ensuring each shot shines with the best scene, lighting, and camera settings for your wedding.

The answer is quite simple. During a wedding photography session, I typically capture between 250 and 500 stunning images each hour.

Are you LBGT friendly?

Of course!

Your wedding day transcends mere ceremony; it’s a beautiful celebration of your unique journey, your love, and the future you are crafting together.

As a dedicated wedding photographer, I provide a luxurious experience founded on equality, respect, and a sense of ease.

I will alleviate your concerns, ensuring that you feel secure, acknowledged, and supported throughout the entire process. From our first consultation to the moment you receive your breathtaking, high-quality wedding photographs.

Can you lose photographs?

This is a common query I hear about wedding photography.

Thanks to cloud technology and camera built-in redundancy, we have fantastic solutions to keep those cherished wedding memories safe.

I utilize the advanced Microsoft cloud system for securely storing every photograph captured. This cutting-edge system ensures peace of mind, knowing that your precious images are always safe.

I also rely on premium-grade, high-performance SD data storage cards in all my cameras.

Furthermore, Canon cameras are equipped with a dual card functionality that allows for simultaneous saving of photos on two separate cards.

What type of cameras do you use?

I have loved Canon cameras and lenses for over 30 years! While they can be pricey, their results are worth it, and they’re built to last!

My photography started with classic Canon 35mm and 120mm film cameras over three decades ago.

Today, I use an array of modern digital cameras and drones to create stunning photos you'll love.

My impressive collection of Canon lenses includes wide-angle, telephoto, and prime options to help me capture every shot is perfectly.

So, if you need a Professional Wedding Photographer, Marcus is your go-to.

Capturing the beauty of pets can certainly present its challenges, but it's also an immensely gratifying and rewarding endeavour. Each photography session is tailored to highlight the unique personality and spirit of your furry companion.

This agreement outlines important details such as the date, time, location, photography style, deliverables, and payment terms, helping to prevent any misunderstandings or disappointments.

It also protects both parties by defining what happens in unforeseen circumstances, such as cancellations or technical issues.

Ultimately, a well-defined contract provides peace of mind, allowing the couple to fully enjoy their special day knowing their memories will be professionally and reliably captured.
