LOOKING FOR A DESTINATION WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?

There are a few things that are pretty magical about destination weddings and getting married in an unfamiliar environment. Be that in a gorgeous vineyard in Southern France, a villa in the mountains of Italy, or a deserted beach in Mexico, destination weddings bring a real sense of adventure and romance to an incredible experience.

One of the best things about destination wedding photography is that I can spend longer with the bride and groom before or after their big day. This is a great way to get to know each other further and help make your special day even more incredible.

Due to the distances involved and potential flights, I usually try to arrive at the wedding destination at least one day before the wedding itself. This way, I can explore the venue and surrounding areas and have an engagement shoot. It’ll also mean you get more photographs of your special trip! I always include this option for all of my destination weddings.

Since photographing my first destination wedding in Florence, Italy, in 2017, I always get excited when I am contacted to photograph a destination wedding!

I love travelling, and I have visited many different countries, such as Japan and Iceland, and have travelled around America. I also love seeing different cultures. If I can combine the two, then it is a dream come true.

“I knew I wanted Phil to capture our day even before my husband proposed! Phil photographed my cousins wedding and he was so amazing. We provisionally booked our wedding date, but didn’t confirm it until we knew Phil was available, I would have happily changed the date to make sure we had him!”

More Information

Destination weddings and choosing a UK-based photographer are becoming super popular, and for good reason—more information about why, apart from the fantastic weather and surroundings, can be found below.

I am involved in destination weddings, and if you are thinking of having one, please contact me to discuss your requirements.

My camera bag is small enough to carry as hand luggage on the plane. I often check luggage to split my kit so that I have backups if one bag goes missing. Thus, there are no concerns about my equipment being damaged, stolen, or lost.

Frequently Asked Questions

why choose a uk based photographer for my destination weddings?

That is an excellent question. In my experience, the language barrier is always mentioned. Still, one of the biggest influences is that you can build a rapport with your home photographer before trusting them to capture your special day. This also means you can quickly check their style, options, packages, after-sales and most importantly, their personality. One of the surprising advantages is actually the cost. Hiring a photographer for the same amount of coverage as a UK photographer in mainland Europe would be very expensive!

how do we arrange your travel for destination weddings?

More often than not, I will arrange my own travel. This will help take the stress off you and allow me to plan my trip accordingly to make sure I get the most out of the venue for your destination wedding. In terms of cost, I will look for the cheapest and best way to cover the wedding and submit the cost and details to you.

will you travel for engagement sessions as well?

Certainly! This also applies to vow renewals and elopements. I will do my best to photograph anything unique, including traveling to amazing locations, in order to help you obtain incredible images!

what additional costs are associated with destination weddings?

The cost will be any package plus travel and accommodation for my videographer or me if you want to book the Photo + Video package. I would always contact you to discuss your requirements for your destination wedding.

can we book for our home wedding?

Most of my couples with destination weddings will have a home wedding/party on return. I offer a discounted price to cover this event. This means you will have all your photos from your destination and home weddings in one place and will only have to deal with one photographer for both, saving time and money!
