Do you do formals?
Absolutely, I like to think that my clients only want a limited number and I always strive to complete them in 15 minutes.
But yes, formals have their place for those clients who want them and I am more than happy to oblige.
Do you travel?
Within reason. For all weddings where the action takes place less than 50 miles from Liss, Hampshire (by road),
travel is free. Over 50 miles I do have to charge for time and expenses. As we all know, petrol is like gold.
How do we book you?
By giving me a Ferrari? Hardly, a signed contract and a non-refundable retainer of £500 secures your date.
Once booked and cheque cleared I'm yours for the day. I encourage all my clients to meet me first.
But I understand that this isn't always possible when you might live a fair distance away.
Are you insured?
Yep. I'd be crazy not to.
Do you carry backup equipment?
Its more a case that I have enough kit to ensure that if something breaks I've got everything I need to keep going.
3 camera bodies, 2 flash units and more lenses than SpecSavers.
Where does your son get his stunning good looks?
Ah...you've been reading the blog. His mother, naturally.
Your packages include a CD. But can I print from it or are the images too dinky to do anything with?
Full size, full resolution, you can print without an issue. Use a proper lab to get the best results. Oh...and make a copy. Giving you the ownership comes with the
responsibility of keeping track of your CD.
Can you describe your style?
Ah...the loaded question. I try to steer clear of the copycat descriptions like 'unique, fun, different and contemporary'. Often
times you find folks who say that are at best fun but unique and different they most certainly aren't. I suppose I see it that if
I have to tell you I'm different then you probably didn't notice anyway. But as for my style I would say that it falls into three distinct
area throughout the course of a shoot. If you take a small bit of reportage, throw in a generous helping of photojournalism and add
a dash of glamour and you've got my style in one. Some folks might call it Creative or Artistic Wedding Photojournalism. I can't honestly
say that I'm entirely photojournalistic. I love details, love to splash around a little light and sometimes like to hang back and crop tight.
What I will say is that my style is my own and I think that after surfing the site of 20 photographers you'll find 18 of them all
look the same. BTW...I'm one of the other two.
We've read other photographers websites and they seem to speak about themselves in the 3rd person. Why don't you?
Man...that drives me nuts. But for the record Rob never likes to talk about himself in the 3rd person. He strives to give that
extra personal approach. Rob truly is a great guy. Just ask the 3rd person.
