‘We are really pleased we chose Ashley to photograph our special day. He captured our wedding superbly as a story which unfolded from the early morning preparation to the service and then reception, speech-making and dancing in the evening.
Shots of our family and friends captured relaxed and happy people, with some wonderful expressions and moments.
Ashley blended into the day and we did not even notice him yet he captured everything. Ashley's photo essay of the day was translated into a beautifully created album where he mixed individual images with double page montages set against a backdrop of scenes from the day. We could not have chosen a better way of recording our day. Thank you Ashley.
- Melanie & Ian
‘Ashley was magnificent from the first time we met through to his marvellous after sales care. His attention to detail and dedication to produce wonderful photographs of our special day was second to none. Ashley's professional eye and artistic knowledge produced an album that is unique and a pleasure to look at time after time. All that have seen our album have commented on it being the best wedding album they have ever seen and what a wonderful way it is of telling the story of the day - and what a wonderful way it is of telling the stpry of the day. We have recommended Ashley to everyone and would not hesitate to ask him to carry out further photographic services in future’.

The wedding package I offer is one where I devote my whole time to your wedding, combining classic posed pictures with informal, natural shots (in colour and black & white) so that I cover the complete story of your special day and capture all the essential moments. I also employ an experienced assistant to help with those extra shots so that nothing is missed. Both of us are award-winning, qualified photographers with the Society of Wedding & Portrait photographers and carry Public Liability and Professional Indemnity wedding insurance.
My wedding package also includes the creation (by me) of a special wedding album which would contain single and double-page images as well as multiple-image pages (essentially montages). Most of the wedding bookings I obtain come from word-of-mouth recommendations from the wedding couples who buy one of my albums.
The attendance charge for this wedding package is £950.
All albums are extra to the attendance charge but are very reasonably priced. You can see examples of the double page layouts for several weddings on my website. Here are direct links to a few of them:
Andrea & Andrew at Hassop Hall
Sally & Alun at Meynell Langley Hall and Bentley Brook Inn
Laura & Jon at Breadsall Priory
Anna & Stewart at Shottle Hall
Melanie & Ian at Alstonefield Church & Peveril in the Peak Hotel
Lucy & Russell - Meynell Langley Hall
Jenny & Anthony at Newton Park Hotel
Lorna & Paul at Kilburn Hall
Claire & Michael at Blackbrook
Judith & Rob at East Lodge Rowsley
I use an award-winning Italian company called GraphiStudio who produce high quality, hand-bound wedding books. All the couples who have ordered these albums are thrilled by the quality, as you can tell from the accolades at the top of this page.
What's especially exciting about GraphiStudio is that they produce ‘parent copies’ (smaller versions of the main album) and even smaller ‘pocket books’ (again, actual replicas of the main album). These are wonderful as gifts to parents and other relatives and wedding guests. The wedding couples who ordered these guest books really love them.
To learn more about GraphiStudio, click here to view the GraphiStudio website. However, I really would urge you to see the actual wedding albums for yourself as you’ll be able to see the pages close up, and I just know you will be impressed by the magnificent print quality. I would be very happy to come and visit you in order to show just how marvellous these albums appear ‘in the flesh’ so to speak.
I hope you like the images you see on my website. If you would like to discuss my services further, please don't hesitate to contact me.
