Thank you for visiting my Gretna Wedding site and congratulations on your forthcoming marriage. You will find listed below a comprehensive range of PHOTOGRAPHIC & VIDEO packages which I believe to be among the best value on offer in and around Gretna.

Prints

Large size 10 x 8 prints offer great value for money in our Budget and Standard Packages and are not cropped in any way to fit in the Standard Album.If you would rather have smaller print sizes of 8x6 or 7x5 this can be arranged.

Premier Package Albums are Hand made and leather bound and are of the highest quality and accept a maximum print size of 8 x 6 . Free DVD Slide Show with all PremierePpackages .


Parents Albums

Please call for prices for parents albums as we have to many combinations to list.


DVD Slide Show
Why not have all your photos put onto a DVD Slideshow complete with music and Transitions.(Genuine DVD not a video cd) Only £35 each

Photography

All our photographic packages are either shot by my self or one of our small team of caring staff photographers who shoot to the same format as the pictures displayed on this web site, all our processing is done in house on state of the art Kodak processing machines so print quality is to the highest standard and packages can be turned around extremley quickly.

Reprints
I always have a few prints left over which do not make your package.These are made available to you by way of a contact sheet from which you may select any additional prints if required for family and friends. Reprint prices are kept to a minimum to match my package prices.
 

Why You Need A Photographer

Whether you care to choose me or one of the other Gretna photographers there is one thing certain, you do need a professional photographer, whether its six or thirty-six photographs, you need a photographer. The one scene I see to often is couples and their guests wandering around aimlessly after the ceremony not knowing what to do or where to go for the best locations for wedding photography, they think they will take their own photographs and find on the day they haven't got a clue where or what to do.

Not only where to go but how to pose the best shots, its your wedding day and for a relatively small amount of money you can have the difference between some family snapshots and proper professional photographs, all photographers at Gretna offer prices at a fraction of most professional's and the same people cover more weddings in a year than most others cover in a lifetime.

You will be receiving for your money experienced professionals with thousands of happy couples between them, simply look around the various websites and make your choice, ask whoever you booked your wedding with to recommend or verify your choice, this is important, its your big day, you want to be confident in your choice

 


Please note that all the packages listed are for Gretna Weddings only. Prices are kept to a minimum as weddings are so short and I can cover 3 - 4 a day. . In the event that we can not cover your wedding I can organise someone else suitable to photograph your wedding for you .All packages are for venue only.

I would like to take this opportunity to say how pleased Stephen and I are with the video and also the professional and friendly service that you provide.We would have no hesitation in recommencing you to friends/family/future clients and we would like to wish you every success in the future.Cathy Fox

Hello Colin.

When we booked our wedding photos we were unsure what quality of pictures we were going to get for our £80 package!! I have to say that we were far from disappointed as the complete set we received are all first class and we felt so relaxed while doing the shoot. Many Thank's.Emma & Phil Sharwood

Hi Colin

Just a note to say a big thank you for the photos we were so pleased that they arrived at Comlongon before we set off on our honeymoon!

We were delighted with the selection you sent over, they really were lovely, and we both thought the mix of black & white, colour etc was fantastic.

It was a bit of a risk booking over the internet, but I really am pleased I took the gamble. We had a lovely day and everyone agreed that you were great and made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. ( neither of us are very at ease having photos taken). Really excellent and we would be glad to recommend you to anyone

Hi Colin

Thanks so much for the great video, it had me in tears (again), my whole family
love it and iv had several requests to borrow it, which as you can imagine I am
reluctant to do....
Thanks again, you've made our special day into a timeless film

Thanks and Best Regards

Louise Cain

Dear Colin,
Just a quick note to say thanks.Our Wedding photos arrived on Thursday and are fantastic.
Each photo was lovely, we couldn't of asked for more. We were really suprised at how quickly
you managed to get them to us. After looking at the proofs you will be hearing from us soon
as we, along with some of our families ,would like to order some more prints. Also the album
was just what we wanted ,beautiful but simple. So once again many thanks for doing a very
professional job. Hope to be in touch soon when we've all decided what we want!

Dear Colin

The photos have arrived on Saturday for our Wedding which took place on Valentines Day 2005. They are ABSOLUTELY SUPERB and we are over the moon.... You have to trust complete strangers will come through for you with regards to photos,flowers, reception, hair make up etc on this very important day and we can not believe how wonderful everyone and everything was .It 'Made Our Day'....(literally) Without you and everyone else's kind assistance it would not have happened.  Photos are one of the most important parts of the wedding as they have to give people who weren't able to make it, a reflection of our special day. You have certainly managed to achieve this, and for that we are very grateful. You may or may not be aware that we made the local and National Press (The Daily Record !!) so that mader it extra special. I'm sure people will be in touch for copies of photos and I for 1 will be ordering a copy of No 38...!! Kind Regards & THANKYOU Louise & Peter McCarrick

Hello Colin,

Just a note to tell you and Hazel how happy we are with the wedding photos/video you provided us.Since our return we have received numerous compliments on the photos you took. We have been told that they really reflect the joy of the day.We would like to add our compliments too. During and following the ceremony you and your wife were highly professional and clearly knew what you were doing. You captured several beautiful, candid pictures. You quickly and efficiently took the photos with a minimum of fuss. Your suggestions for the posed shots produced natural pictures that captured the moments perfectly.The service you provided went well beyond our expectations. Your warmth, friendliness and expertise made working with you a pleasure.We recommend you highly to anyone who needs outstanding, professional photographic services for a wedding or other event.

We had such a fantastic time in Scotland, it's been difficult to get back into life in Washington DC - all the usual "busyness" of the American way of living. We'll just have to look forward to another trip to your wonderful country!

Cheers,
Evelin and Bill
