Northampton Wedding Photography. Bridal portraits and weddings in Northamptonshire / Northants and throughout the Midlands. Wedding Photographer Northampton

We understand that not all couples want the same thing from their photography coverage and don’t all want a standard package of albums, etc. In order to meet these varying requirements we offer a three step tailor-made quotation service where you can pick the elements you want from our price list to create your own bespoke package.

1 Attendance Fee:

The starting point for our service is the fee for our time, which includes:

  • Initial consultation.
  • Two photographers providing full wedding coverage (as much or as little as you require) which may include:
    • Bride and Groom getting ready and/or morning activities.
    • Arrival at the ceremony.
    • During the ceremony (subject to permission).
    • Guests milling and chatting.
    • Group photos.
    • Bride & Groom portrait session.
    • Arrival at reception.
    • Reception room details (tables, cake, etc.)
    • Speeches.
    • First dance and general evening shots (we aim to be finished by 9pm).
  • Editing and processing of all images after the wedding.
  • Web gallery to show your friends and family.
  • Design of Souvenir Booklet for ordering through our web gallery.

Our prices assume that the wedding venue is no more than one hour’s travel from our base in Northampton and that an overnight stay is not required. In this event additional costs may be required.

2 Options:

If you wish, you can choose to add options such as a separate portrait shoot or an alternative method of proofing your images.

A pre-wedding shoot, sometimes known as an engagement shoot, is an informal photoshoot where we can get used to working with each other, often at the wedding venue. This can be useful for couples who may be nervous in front of cameras to enable them to relax more on their big day. The resulting images could be used during the celebrations in some way.

A post-wedding shoot can be useful where the couple want some high quality portraits but can’t or don’t want to spare the time during the wedding day. At its most basic it is an excuse to get dressed up again and relive the memories of the day when you are a little more relaxed and have more time to enjoy the star treatment. These shoots can be on location or in the studio (additional studio hire fees may apply).

Finally, we have the option for a Bridal Glamour shoot, sometimes known as a Boudoir shoot. This is becoming increasingly popular with brides who want to give their grooms a special present of some more intimate images featuring lingerie and more seductive posing. Please contact us for more information.

3 Presentation:

Finally, we ask that you choose at least one of our methods for the presentation of your images. You can choose from a CD of high resolution images for you to print or share yourselves or a wide range of albums and coffee table books. While only a few of these options are listed on our standard price list, most types of albums on the market are available so if you have seen any other products or types of albums offered by another photographer that you would like, please ask us as we can probably source them for you. Various other prints and photogifts are available to order after your wedding.

Our Package Price Buildup form is available on our downloads page where you can build up your own package price based on your requirements.

ABOUT US: Wildcard Photography was set up in 2004 by the father and son team of Dennis and Matthew Smith. With photographic experience spanning many decades, we decided to combine our two great interests of photography and motorcycles to create a new company specialising in images of bikes. Initially we concentrated on racing shots at club and national level following the British Superbikes (BSB), BEMSEE and MRO race series around the country. We also covered events such as the NEC Motorcycle Show, BMF Rally, etc. We became quite well known in racing circles and started doing press relations and promotional work for a number of riders and teams. This led us to having our regular press releases and photographs published in a number of newspapers, magazines such as Bike Sport News and Streetfighters, and we have had numerous covers and “Images of the Month” in The Riders Digest. Our images have been used on countless websites and we exclusively provided images for the first Superbike Grand National at Castle Combe Circuit for their race programme and event advertising. Three years of being away from home every weekend gradually took its toll however and we started to scale down our race coverage. At the same time we were approached by a calendar publisher who wanted to produce a new title featuring images of classic British bikes and wondered if we could help. Of course we jumped at the chance and it was a huge thrill the first time we saw our images on sale in high street shops. The success of that title in the first year led to us providing images for another new title, Superbikes, the following year featuring the top road bikes and exotica of the time. We have continued to exclusively provide images for these titles ever since. Moving toward a different style of photography with the calendar work and some features we had done for TRD meant that we had largely left high speed shooting behind and now concentrated more on portraits - whether of biking personalities or effectively portraits of the bikes themselves. At the end of 2008 we took this to the next logical step and started carrying out proper model portrait photography. In a short time we have become very experienced in many forms of photography and particularly lighting techniques that we can apply to portraits regardless of the subject or nature of the shot. We work in all genres, from fashion and editorial to glamour and nude. We are happy to receive commissions from individuals who are perhaps aspiring models or actors putting together a portfolio, local business people needing an image for their website or annual report, or perhaps clients that just want some nice images for their home or to use on social networking websites like Facebook. Alongside this we continued to carry out a number of ad hoc commercial assignments, including such varied work as interior shots for a local hotel, product photography for a cookery equipment company, a huge billboard advertisement for a garage and much more. Ultimately, this grew into the Wildcard Commercial division of our business and we are pleased to discuss any corporate imaging requirements. Finally, in 2009 we combined all our experience across these different genres and types of photography to create what we believe is a high quality wedding photography service. And it is the level of service that we are particularly proud of as we offer a truly flexible approach. Whether you want traditional, contemporary, reportage or journalistic style of photography, whatever extent of coverage or end product you may require, we can provide it. We looked long and hard at the established wedding photography industry and spent a long time developing our systems to ensure that our couples have a fun and enjoyable time on their wedding day with great service and unobtrusive photographers providing memorable images that can be treasured for years to come.
