Wedding Photography Investment | Lake District Wedding Photography

How much?

Don’t you find it annoying when some photographers lure you in and then ask you to contact them just to find out their prices. Not me, I’m super honest and transparent and treat others how I want to be treated, that’s all.

If you’re already on this page then I’m hoping you connect with the style and approach of my work. If so then get in touch and let’s chat as I’d love to find out all about your wedding plans.

That’s why the investment you make in choosing the right photographer is arguably the best decision you will ever make in the whole wedding process apart from the person standing next to you when you say your “I do’s”.

Investment is so more than “just’ price as the images should evoke feelings and stir the soul. The price of not investing properly, unfortunately comes at a cost.

Below you’ll find my rates whether for just a few hours, right through to full unlimited coverage including the 4 stages of Bridal preparation right through till fireworks.

You, me, We!

What is fundamental is getting to know you as a couple, which is more than just what makes you laugh, cry, and tick.

I want to know where you met, your back story and so much more so that I get you!

This way I’ve got your back and will always encourage you to be you, as I’ll do me, and that way we will work well together.

My couples say how relaxed I make them feel and we almost always have fun as it’s a wedding after all!!!

Full Day

If starting the day with a 7am skinny dip with your tribe is your thing, then I’m there right through to fireworks at midnight!

Elopements, Micro, & Magical Mystery

Sometimes your circumstances may mean you don’t need unlimited wedding coverage and since lockdown these types of wedding are now on the increase.

Lake District Wedding Photographer, David Rucker

Elopements – just the 2 of you and me having a blast at whatever location you have in mind. Given my background, I’m happy to suggest some options if asked for the more adventurous couples.

Micro – these are sometimes known as small intimate weddings, typically around 20-30 people as opposed to the UK’s average of 82.3 people. I’ve not yet met that 0.3 of a person though.

Magical mystery – this is where people put their complete faith in me and I take them on a magical mystery tour. This could typically be The Lakes, or any area of The UK as spent 4 years at Uni in North Wales and have worked at various Outdoor Centres in Scotland so know this Island of ours pretty well.

A pre-wedding consultation so we get to know each other.

Your very own on-line gallery (including slideshow) which you’ll download all images

Outdoorsy Lake District
Wedding Photographer

Being the Outdoorsy type means I’m up for any adventure you have in mind, whether that’s an elopement wedding on a remote Icelandic peak, or at your special go to place.

I do offer shorter coverage for elopements and micro weddings.

I receive roughly in the region of 300 enquiries per year, so if you are interested in working with me, please fill out the contact form.

If you’re getting married abroad or more than 3 hours from The Lakes, then there are additional travel costs involved which I’m happy to discuss. Usually a budget B&B works plus fuel costs, all very reasonable, so there are no hidden surprises.
