We have experience with many popular wedding venues across Colchester and Ipswich, but even if we haven’t previously photographed at your chosen venue, you can rest assured that it won’t affect the quality of your photos.
We make it a point to arrive early to familiarise ourselves with the location and prepare a plan of action based on the light we have available that day.
For more insights into how we adapt to new venues, please check out our dedicated article on this topic.

I, Eleth, am your primary photographer and am fully equipped to beautifully capture your wedding on my own. However, for larger weddings or at venues with multiple key areas, having a second photographer can greatly enhance the coverage.
With two photographers, we can capture more moments and memories from various angles, enhancing your overall wedding collection.

After your wedding, every photo undergoes individual color correction and quality checking to maintain our signature style across your entire collection. You can expect to view and download your photos in full resolution via an online gallery within six weeks.
If you’re eager to relive your special day sooner, consider our Priority Gallery Delivery option, which allows you to access your photos as early as 2-3 weeks after your wedding.
