Wedding FAQs
For weddings I ask for a £300 non refundable booking fee. I only shoot one wedding per day, so this fee secures your wedding date. If your wedding date were to change, this fee will be transferred so long as I am available on your new date. The remaining payment is due a week before your wedding date. You can see the full range of wedding packages that I offer by clicking here.
Yes, I have both professional indemnity and public liability insurance (every wedding photographer should have this!).
Absolutely! It’s your wedding day, the most special occasion with those nearest and dearest to you, some of those which you may not see regularly. To have the whole family in the same place very smartly dressed is a rarity, so I want to preserve those memories to you. Please bear in mind that the more group shots you ask for, the less time we will have for photographs of the 2 of your and less time capturing the general atmospheric photographs.
I’ve mentioned before, but I love vibrant colours, so with your wedding day photography I like to keep the colours as true as possible rather than having the latest ‘filtered’ look, but that doesn’t mean I’m stuck in my ways; I will try something new at weddings to keep your wedding unique and fresh. I tell the story of your wedding day as it happens rather than filling it with staged/unnatural moments, so that you will remember exactly as it was for years to come.
Definitely! Your wedding photographs come with a personal use license, enabling you to share with friends, family and social media (feel free to take me @juliahealeyphotography). However, if any of your other suppliers from your wedding request the photographs, or the photographs are wished to be used in any articles or any professional use, please point them my way as this will change the way they need to be used.
Please see my latest 5* Google reviews here, or my testimonials page which both show a vast amount of fabulous reviews left by my lovely clients.
For full day wedding packages, I arrive around 2-3 hours before your ceremony time for your wedding preparations (make up, hair, general hustle and bustle) right up until your first dance and just after. Full details of my full day wedding photography packages can be found here.
If you don’t need for a full day that’s no problem, get in touch and let me know your requirements and we can have a chat.
I aim to have your wedding photographs with you no later than 4-6 weeks after your wedding date, but during peak times this may increase a little, but I will keep you updated. I do however like to show you a couple of sneak peaks within a few days, which you are welcome to share online (feel free to take me @juliahealeyphotography).
What Clients Say
Testimonials
Julia was a complete life saver for our wedding! When our original photographer cancelled 10 days before the wedding (!!), we were lucky that Julia happened to be free for our date. Not only we were lucky, we’re actually now certain it’s the best thing that could have happened! Julia fit seamlessly into the day and made sure to identify key family members and friends. In fact, many of our guests later complimented Julia to us for her professionalism and attention to detail! The photos were everything we hoped for and we have a wonderful mix of both staged and candid shots – we couldn’t recommend Julia highly enough.
– Beth & TobyJulia is a phenomenal photographer, my husband and I met her five years ago when she was photographing a wedding and we knew then that she would be our photographer when we got married. Julia is incredibly friendly, conscientious, professional, thorough and really goes the extra mile. We highly recommend her!
– Tanya & MikeWhere do I start? Julia is incredible! I was only completely sure of one thing with our wedding photos, which was to get the most natural poses & boy did Julia deliver! Our photos are absolutely beautiful and so natural. Julia helped with ideas and directed us perfectly for some amazing pictures. I still look through all of them and love every single one, and I can honestly say it takes me right back to our perfect day! Julia made us feel so at ease, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. She’s very professional and really did do our day justice, thank you so much Julia for supporting me, for being a friend when needed and for just simply being so fantastic to us and our guests. We have some photos that will allow us to re-live that perfect day every day.
– Lauren & JoeJulia did our wedding photos a few weeks ago and she was amazing. We absolutely love our wedding pictures and she made it very enjoyable even though we were all freezing down by the river (February wedding) she was very patient with our son, he was crying most of the ceremony and she still managed to get some nice pictures. The confetti shots are brilliant!!! I am so happy. 100% recommend. Thank you so much.
– Bex & OliverJulia did our wedding photos and I can not thank her enough; they are absolutely stunning exactly what we wanted. Working with Julia was amazing, she was great to contact and spent time getting to know us and exactly what we wanted. She really knows her stuff and wants to capture your day/event the way you want. We had a few special requests on a few of our guests and she was more accommodating. We had such a laugh on the day of the wedding and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to spend the day with. Definitely clicked and just had a laugh from start to finish. Made a friend in the process. Thank you so much!!!
– Natalie & MattWhat can I say… having Julia photograph at our wedding was an absolute dream. So incredibly friendly and an absolute pleasure to work with… she made us feel so comfortable, and the shots on the day were just beautiful! Thank you so, so much for helping us capture some of the most memorable and beautiful moments of our big day. Wouldn’t change it for the world.
– Lori & GraemeSo happy I found Julia to be our wedding photographer, she was so friendly and made us all feel really at ease & relaxed, nothing was too much hassle for her & the communication before and afterwards was fantastic. Thank you again Julia.
– Paula & PeterWhat can I say, Julia is amazing! She fit in at my wedding better than some of my guests, it’s like I’ve known her for years, nothing was too much hassle for her, she went above and beyond her photography duties for me & although I haven’t got all my photos back yet, the few teaser ones I got were absolutely stunning, I can’t believe it’s us in them pictures!! Would highly recommend her, 5* Thank you so much Julia
