A: Your Wedding Photography packages start at €750 with Rose Photography. This will buy you the basic package which includes your photographer from morning until your meal and all of your Wedding Photos on a disk in both colour and B&W, you can receive anything from 150 - 400 images depending on photo opportunity throughout your special day.

Obviously weekends and bank holidays are very popular for weddings so book early to avoid disappointment.

A I personally photograph all weddings booked with Rose Photography.

A I shoot candid shots, journalistic shots, formal portraits, and any special requests that you have. My style for wedding photography is 'story book' so you can look back and remember all the finest details of your wedding day that you so carefully planned from beginning to end.
