Choosing the experience you deserve to have

How I can help you have the best memories of your wedding day

You have probably never planned a wedding before and therefore haven’t hired a photographer or videographer to capture it! All of this is new and you probably don’t know where to start.

Let me guide you through how to get the memories you want from your wedding while having a great experience!

Length of coverage

This will depend on the format of your day and the plans you have made. I offer 3 types of coverage.

Most couples are looking for all day coverage, starting with preparations 2-3 hours before the ceremony, all the way through until well into the evening at least an hour after the first dance. This way you get the whole story of the day.

Everyones plans are different though, so for smaller, shorter days I offer a half day coverage or if you are planning an elopement or micro wedding I can provide a bespoke quote based on your unique requirements.

Photographs

The current standard for delivering wedding photos is as digital images in an online gallery, I use Pic-time to deliver my images as I have found their gallery to be the nicest looking and easiest to use. Depending on the length of the coverage you can expect different numbers of edited images delivered, this will be several hundred.

The gallery has the option for you to order prints directly online at the click of a button, or you have the option for me to design for you a beautiful fine art album produced by Folio Albums. There is something so special about having tangible memories of your wedding to be able to touch and hold, YOU CAN READ MORE ABOUT ALBUMS HERE….

Films / Videos

Shorter, creative highlight style films have become very popular in recent years for couples to be able to relive their day in something short, concise and impactive. A film full or emotion and personality that can be watched regularly. With experience I have found the best length for these films to be around 5 minutes, these are the films you see on this website – I call them a ‘Story Film’.

But there are so many memories captured at your wedding that I know you will want to experience and keep as a legacy. This is why I also offer the option of a longer feature documentary film which is a more traditional style of edit, but still has my creative touch, which makes it engaging to sit down and watch on those more special occasions when you have a little more Tim.

Social Media Content

Many of us want to be able to share the excitement of our wedding in the days after it happened and don’t want to have to wait for the full photo gallery or films to be created. This is why I offer a small sneak peak photo gallery and/or a teaser trailer film for every wedding that will be delivered to the couple within 2 days of the event.

For couples who want even more content to share on social media I can offer a content creation add on package with a dedicated member of the team. This will give you a series of at least 5 short vertical video clips and a larger sneak peak gallery of at least 100 photographs ready for you to use in your online posts on Instagram or TikTok.

Wedding Storytelling Collections

We believe in straightforward and transparent pricing, but as every wedding is unique and we offer multiple services it is difficult to offer something where one price fits all.

So we have three packages for just photography, three for just videography and three for photo and video. There are then a number of options that you can add on as required.

  • Video
  • Photo & Video

If you love my work and like the sound of what I offer then I would love to learn about you and your plans. Click the button below to send me an enquiry and start the ball rolling!

Here are some of the additional options we offer:

Additional Storyteller

Additional Storyteller

An additional filmmaker or photographer (depending on the service we are providing). This enables more of your day to be captured, from more angles to show you even more of the story!

This may be important if you would like to capture both people getting readyTitle * before the ceremony and you are in different locations. It is also useful when there are multiple venues/locations so that we can provide a less interrupted coverage.

Additional Coverage

Start Early / Stay Late

For those extra long wedding days where you have things planned that cannot be missed or where there are cultural, ceremonial aspects of the wedding that require capturing earlier or later than a typical western wedding celebration.

I am really flexible and want to ensure that everything that is important to you is captured as part of the visual story of your day. All that I ask is we are compensated appropriately for the extended time we need to be available to you, and the potentially longer process of editing your wedding.

Pre-Wedding / Engagement Shoot

Engagement / Pre-wedding Shoot / Story Session

Do you like the idea of having the opportunity to meet up prior to the wedding day to take some photos or capture some video clips? Maybe a short interview, or some images of you doing something that you love, this can really help to enhance the story of your relationship and your wedding day.

This is great for making you feel more comfortable in front of the camera on the wedding day, for us to get to know each other better and for you to have some nice photographs to use for your wedding invitations or a signing board etc.

The price includes travel within 45 minutes of our studio in S75 and up to an hour and a half at a location. We typically suggest meeting at your venue or at a favourite location/somewhere meaningful to you, but we can also suggest locations if you like.

After the shoot we will send you a selection of images from the shoot (typically 50+ images) in an online gallery or/and some clips to add to your wedding story when we create it after the wedding day.

Destination Coverage for Weddings Abroad

For weddings outside of mainland UK

I love to travel and see different parts of the world and if you are getting married and want the piece of mind of bringing someone you trust with you to capture your wedding then I would love to join you.

The additional charge is to cover the flights, other travel expenses and accommodation costs. As part of this you will also potentially get additional coverage the day before or the day after the wedding depending on the timing of the flights.

This is charged as a flat fee per person (so is dependent on the number of storytellers you require) for European weddings, a bespoke quote will be put together for weddings elsewhere in the world due to the fluctuating cost of travel.

Content Creation Package

Dedicated Content Creator As Part of Our Team

An additional member of the team working dedicated to capturing additional wedding content in a more raw and behind the scenes style for fast turnaround social media content. The majority of this content will be shot in the moment using a mobile device/phone or action style camera.

The day after your wedding you will receive a bundle containing photo and video clips captured throughout the day as well as at least 5 edited reel/tiktok style vertical videos ready to post.

Live Stream Coverage

A Way For Guests to Join Remotely In Great Quality

Live stream coverage of your ceremony that can either be added onto a photography or videography package, or booked independently. This is a multi-camera live production to match our video coverage with clear, high quality audio so people can hear you speak your vows even if they are at the other side of the world!

USB Drive with Personalised Portfolio Case

Handcrafted Hardcopy of Memories

As standard we deliver you your memories digitally online. But if you would like a keepsake physical copy of your films or something to give as a gift to family members, we offer gorgeous handmade, personalised portfolio cases with USB drives containing your films.

Albums and Prints

Beautiful Luxury Prints & Albums

Display your photographs the way they were intended by printing them in one of our gorgeous, handmade and customised Fine Art Albums. A perfect keepsake to have from your wedding day. Albums are supplied by a world renowned, local supplier – Folio Albums.

How much does it cost?

The reason I don’t list the prices on my website is a practical one, it is not intended to frustrate you.

I capture weddings all over the UK and abroad and I get enquiries for everyday of the week and all year around. There are times of the year, for example Saturdays in summer that I could book 10 times over, but a Wednesday in January is usually pretty quiet!

For this reason I may offer discounts if your wedding is local to me and is outside of peak season, because I would like to space my work out across the week and the year as much as I possibly can. This is the main reason for not displaying the price before I understand the nature of your enquiry.

How do I set my prices?

Wedding photography and videography prices vary considerably and are unlikely to make sense to you, unless you work within the wedding industry or the visual art world – even then you might be left confused!

My prices are based on my experience, reliability and exceptional, individually focussed service. I invest a lot of time into each story I tell, not just on the wedding day, but preparing before hand and editing afterwards – the actually wedding day is the easier part!

My business is run in a sustainable way, so that I can guarantee that when your wedding day arrives I will be there to capture it because I charge enough to cover my costs, plan for unknowns and earn a salary from doing this that means I can live comfortably. This is not how every wedding supplier operates and this is something to consider when comparing prices.

Wedding Photography & Videography | Your Story Studios

Emma & Rameen

Balbirnie House - Scotland

I’ve never written a more well deserved review. My wife and I spent almost a year looking at potential videographers for our wedding until we stumbled across Lyndsey and Jules (Your Story Films). From watching their footage and seeing them at work, they are complete masters at what they do and have a genuine passion for it. Their dynamic and cinematic videos are the future of wedding videography and they are a step ahead of anyone else we came across in the industry (we searched high and low!) On our wedding day they absolutely nailed the balance between staying discreet but also capturing the shots and moments that really matter. Straight from initial contact they were professional, attentive and did everything they could to make sure that they captured the day exactly how we wanted it. We were speechless with the videos they put together from our big day. The editing and creativity is incomparable and watching it really brought back the familiar flood of emotions from the day. Lyndsey and Jules are a warm, down to earth, genuinely kind hearted couple and you can trust that will look after you and deliver exactly what you want on your wedding day. We wish them all the best of Luck (not that they need it!) Lots of love, E&R

Thicket Priory - York

Jules an Lyndsey are fantastic and I would highly recommend. We were so happy to have them film and photograph our big day. From the moment we first met them (over video) after reviewing their work, we knew we would be in good hands. They were attentive to our needs and really listened to what we wanted from our photos and how we wanted our wedding to feel. They really took time to get to know us and understand what we wanted, they are both so lovely and personable too and were great to have around at the wedding, Lyndsey even helped my mum getting ready! They stuck with us through the Covid rollercoaster and were so easy to work with, supporting our changing plans. The photos are stunning and we absolutely love our video- such special memories. We can’t thank them enough and would not hesitate to recommend them. The video in particular, with Jules’s incredible editing, is outstanding- don’t miss out by just having photos!

The Parsonage Hotel - York

It’s difficult to put into words how perfect our wedding film turned out, but I know it’s something we will cherish forever and show our children ❤ Jules came highly recommended and its easy see why. From the first conversation to the dance floor at the wedding Jules was kind, professional and provided a gentle guiding hand the entire wedding process. Jules listened and saw what was important to David and I, making it all the more personal and unique. You’re probably thinking, I don’t need both photos and a film. But take our advice you do! We will never regret choosing Your Story to capture the day and their amazing craftsmanship made our wedding complete.

Family Farm - South Yorkshire

Jules and Lindsey were the perfect videographers for our special day. They listened to our requirements which were to be discreet and capture candid, natural footage and that’s exactly what they delivered against a backing track that totally suited our style. Each time we watch the videos it takes us straight back to those special moments and we look forward to watching them on every anniversary in years to come. I couldn’t recommend this duo enough, and we’re so thankful that we managed to book them so the memories won’t ever be forgotten, priceless. Thank you, Em & Matt

As soon as soon as we saw Jules and Lyndsey’s story films we fell in love with their work and when we met them we knew they were the film makers for us. They are such lovely genuine people. We were so looking forward to seeing the film and when we did we were so overwhelmed with just how they got us and exactly what we wanted. In fact we couldn’t have imagined just how beautiful it could be. They have a rare and wonderful skill to be able to listen and produce films that reflect couples perfectly. Our friends and family are bowled over by it. Lyndsey and Jules are so discreet, most of our guests said they didn’t notice them filming and Lindsey was wonderful on the day helping out with bits and bobs which was so hugely appreciated. We cannot thank and recommend Your Story films enough and will be forever grateful for the precious memory and story we have in this film.

Holly & Jamie

Yorkshire Sculpture Park - Wakefield

After spending 11 years together it finally can to our wedding day, all I really wanted was someone to capture us as we are, we met Julian and Lyndsey and instantly I knew it had to be them, after watching their other films on repeat I knew no one could come close, these are not your average photographers/videographers! They spent time with us, learning what we loved and who we are as people, they kept in contact on the run up to the wedding and then the day came. I honestly cannot express enough how truly amazing these people are, their work is flawless and not just that, they are the most amazing people too, it felt like we had known them for years. I can never say thank you enough, you are an exceptional couple and I’m so happy you were there, if you are looking for your wedding photographer, look no further, these are everything you are looking for!!!

Some further questions you may have

You may have some additional questions that we would love to answer in person over a video/phone call, but for now maybe your thoughts can be addressed below:

4
How do we arrange a consulation?

After you enquire with us through our contact form, or email/call we will send you some more information and invite you to have a video/phone call consultation. We love to get to know people and give you the opportunity to ask any questions directly. You are welcome to visit us in person if you prefer.

1
How do we book?

The booking process is really simple and can all be done online through our client portal. When we send you a quote over you will be able to select the options you want from a list, and once you accept the quote you will be provided with an online contract to review and sign electronically. Following this there is a short form to complete collecting your contact information and following this an invoice for the 20% booking retainer will be generated. This can be paid via bank transfer or card payment, the process is then complete and we are officially your storytellers!

2
How do we pay?

Your balance is usually due 2 weeks prior to the date of the wedding, unless you have requested an alternative arrangement with us. Before this date an invoice reminder will be sent via email and the final payment is preferred via bank transfer but card payments are also available.

1
What am I paying for?

It may feel like the prices you are quote seem expensive for providing a service on your wedding day. However, consider that we have invested tens of thousands of pounds into equipment, even more into education, and there are the ongoing costs of running a business.

Thats before we add in the time spent planning and consulting with you before your day and the days after the wedding it takes to edit your story into the finished product we send to you. Although we love what we do, we have to charge enough to run a sustainable business and have a reasonable standard of living.

Expensive weddings are a luxury and we are providing a luxury service – but we know how valuable our service will be to you in the future.

2
What happens before the wedding?

Before your wedding we will have sent you a questionnaire to find our a little more about you both and details about the wedding day timeline and the key people involved in your day, these questions are key to us creating your unique story. Then a week or two before the big day we arrange a video call to go through all the fine details and become acquainted with each other before we spend the day together!
