The Truth About Wedding Photo Turnaround Times
Why are you waiting months for your memories?
If you’ve spent any time on wedding forums or talking to married friends, you’ve heard the horror stories. “We got our photos back four months later,” or “We’d almost forgotten what the cake looked like by the time the gallery arrived.”
In the industry, the “standard” wait time is anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks. Personally? I think that’s rubbish.
The “Honeymoon High” is Real
There is a specific kind of magic in the week after your wedding. You’re still buzzing. You’re likely on a beach somewhere or settling back into “real life” as a married couple. That is exactly when you want to see your photos.
I’ve made it my mission to deliver full, professionally edited galleries within 3 to 5 working days. Why? Because I want you to relive those “blink-and-you’ll-miss-it” moments while the champagne is still fizzy in your memory. Whether it’s a high-energy party at The Oak Tree of Peover or an emotional ceremony in the heart of Manchester, those feelings shouldn’t be put on a shelf for three months
Does “Fast” Mean “Rushed”?
This is the big myth. Some people think that if a photographer is fast, they aren’t being careful.
It’s actually the opposite. Being fast means I have systems. It means I’m a full-time professional with a dedicated workflow. I don’t have a “backlog” because I sit down the very next day while the atmosphere of your wedding is still fresh in my mind. I remember the jokes, the tears, and the lighting, and I use that energy to edit your story.
What You Should Expect
