Do you cover my area?
I am based in the Midlands and cover within a 50 mile radius free of charge, however, I travel nationwide for an additional charge of 50p per mile beyond the 50 mile radius,
and possibly the cost of accommodation should I be a very long way away from my home. To clarify, thats 50 miles there, 50 miles back, so you get 100 miles free of charge.

Are you available internationally?
Yes I am available anywhere in the world, as long as you organise and fund transport and accommodation, additionally to this I add a 10% charge onto the price of my packages, due to most likely being away for more than one day.

How much deposit is required?
To secure me for your special day, I require just a £300 non-refundable booking fee, which will be deducted from the price of your chosen package. The remaining balance can then be paid via cash, bank transfer or debit card, which will be paid in two instalments, the first will be 50% of the remaining balance four months before your wedding date, the final 50% is due on my arrival on the day of your wedding. Heres an example:

Rose Package - £1495 for Wedding date 04/09/24
Booking Fee Paid upon booking - £300
1st 50% Instalment due on 04/05/24 - £597.50
2nd 50% Instalment due on 04/09/24 (Wedding day) - £597.50

Do you take instalments?
Yes, the alternative to paying the way shown above is to pay monthly via direct debit, this is completely interest free, again the booking fee is taken off the agreed price and the remaining balance is spread over the remaining months up to one month before your wedding date. This is done via a website that takes the direct debits on Dan Round Photography’s behalf, its completely safe and of course you’re always covered by the direct debit guarantee. It’s really simple to set up and a great way to budget for your wedding!

Are you insured?
Yes, I'm fully insured for professional photography work, including public liability. If your venue need my insurance details, just ask!

How many photos do we get?
I’m currently averaging around 1100 photos per wedding, sometimes as little as 700 other times 1400, it really depends on what is happening on your wedding day, a relaxed slow paced day will tend to have less photos whereas the couples that end up with long speeches, singing waiters and sparklers on the evening will typical have more photos.

Is 1200 photos too many?
The online gallery is a great way to view the photos, I will often split the gallery into sections such as ‘Pre-Ceremony’, ‘Ceremony & Drinks reception’ & ‘Evening’, this makes it really easy for you to skip to a more specific part of your day. You can also create favourite lists too!

How do we purchase photobooks if they're not included in a package?
I always encourage my brides and grooms to purchase photobooks after their wedding, that way you can have a better understanding of desired page quantity and even book quality, see my photobook page for more details.

Also you get shared copyright ownership of all the images you receive which means if you know where and how, you're more than welcome to produce your own photobooks.

How long do you stay at my wedding?
I have two full day coverage packages, my Rose Package and Diamond Package are both up to 10 hour. You are able to add extra hours at a rate of £150 per hour should you wish me to stay even later or get to you even earlier.

What kind of photos do you take?
I don't have a set style that I enforce on my brides and grooms, I leave it up to you, if you want posed photos all day long, we can do that, if you don't want to pose for a single photo and want me to document your day in true documentary style, then thats okay too, and anything in between, it really is down to you as a couple. But I'll always try to give your wedding the natural look, with interaction between the bride and groom we avoid emotionless posing and look as in love as you actually are.

How many photographers do I get?
At the moment I shoot every wedding on my own, it will always be me, Dan. I will never send another photographer in my place.

However you can add on a second photographer to join me on the day, I have an exclusive second photographer that I love working with, but at the same time, It's not vital to have two, in fact I cover a wedding day really well and more often than not I do Bridal & Groom preps before a wedding if time allows. If Bride & Groom preparations are very important to you and you want lots of coverage of this and some extra coverage throughout the day then a second photographer is a great way to get all those extra angles and moments. Shaun is my regular Second Photographer, check out my Facebook reviews, you’ll see him being praised by lots of couples!

How do I book you?
The best way to book me would be to contact me to check my availability and ask any questions you may have. You can also ask to view a full wedding gallery, it’s very important whether you book myself or another photographer that you view some full weddings, it’s quite easy for a photographer to build a great portfolio over many weddings but it’s important that you know your photographer can capture a wedding day from start to finish in all different lighting conditions in the way that you would love your own day to be photographed.

What happens if I lose my memory stick after the wedding?
It is advised that once you receive your wedding photos you back them up to 1 or 2 other storage devices, this way you'll be sure you won't ever lose them, however I will keep a copy of your wedding photos for many years to come just incase the unthinkable happens, this does not mean I am liable for holding your wedding photos, as stated it is your responsibility to back the images up and thankfully we have the amazing online gallery to view and download your images which makes it so much easier than dealing with USB’s.
