Natural, colourful wedding photography for couples who want to spend their wedding enjoying it, not posing for it.
Everything you need to know before we spend one of the best days of your life together.
Planning a wedding is exciting enough without having to decipher photography jargon or compare endless lists of what's included. So here's the straightforward version. Below you'll find my wedding photography packages, what's included with every booking, how I work on the day and answers to the questions couples ask me most.
How it all works
1. We chat
We'll get to know each other, talk through your plans and make sure we're the right fit.
2. We plan
I'll help with timelines, answer questions and make sure photography fits naturally into your day.
3. You get married
You enjoy every minute while I capture it all, stepping in only when needed for portraits and family photos.
4. You relive it all
I edit every image before delivering your online gallery, ready to download, share and enjoy for years to come.

“Kate is incredible - such a genius, capturing everyone so well and all the beautiful human moments that happen at a wedding with so much fun and colour and joy - she was perfect at our wedding and her photos added even more to our special day - would recommend her to anyone planning to get married”
What's included with every wedding
A proper chat before you book
No awkward sales pitch, I promise. We'll have a relaxed video call or phone chat so you can tell me all about your plans, ask every question you've got and make sure we're the right fit.

Like a mate with a camera
I'll be in amongst the celebrations, chatting to your guests and capturing your day as it naturally unfolds. When it's time for family photos or a few relaxed portraits, I'll keep things quick, fun and get you straight back to the party.
Hand-edited photographs
Every image is individually edited by me in the natural, colourful and true-to-life style you see throughout my website. Beautiful photographs that stand the test of time.
Your own online gallery
A beautiful password-protected gallery where you, your family and friends can download high-resolution images, share your photographs and order professional prints.
A wedding photography guide
Packed with planning tips, timeline advice and everything I've learnt from photographing hundreds of weddings, helping your photography fit naturally into your day.
In your corner from day one
Need help with timings? Wondering whether to do a first look? Not sure how long confetti takes? Just send me a message. I'm always happy to help.
Travel included across England + WALES
Travel anywhere in England is included. For Scotland and destination weddings, I'll simply add travel and accommodation at cost.
“EDIT: I went to look at our pictures again right after leaving this review. If you don’t pick Kate Jackson as a photographer you’re probably making one of the worst decisions (if not the worst) of your life...not to be dramatic or anything but its true.... I also started favorting pictures but had to stop as there was too many!”
Wedding Photography Packages
Choosing the right amount of coverage
Every wedding is different, so there's no one-size-fits-all package. Whether you're planning a relaxed celebration or a full day from morning prep through to dancing, I'll help you choose the amount of coverage that's right for your timeline and the moments you'd love captured.
Not sure which collection is right for you? Don't worry - most couples aren't! The guide below will give you a rough idea, but if you're still unsure, just get in touch. I'd much rather help you choose the right collection than have you book too much (or too little!).
Full day photography starting from £1350
5 hours
Only want me there for the heart of your wedding day?
Five hours could be the perfect fit. Depending on your timeline, I can usually capture your ceremony, confetti, family photos, couple portraits and, if you're having speeches before your wedding breakfast, those too
8 hours (most popular)
Want the story of your wedding day, from getting ready through to the celebrations?
For many weddings, 8 hours is the sweet spot. It gives me plenty of time to tell the story of your day, with enough flexibility to adapt to your timeline and everything you'd love me to capture. Depending on your plans, that could include morning preparations, your ceremony, confetti, family photos, couple portraits, speeches and usually your first dance.
10 hours
If your wedding day has a little more going on, 10 hours gives us a little more flexibility.
Rather than keeping one eye on the clock, we can simply enjoy the day as it unfolds. Whether that's an earlier ceremony, a longer drinks reception, golden hour portraits or staying well into the evening, there's more time to capture the atmosphere, the people and all those little moments in between.
So... tell me everything.
I'd love to hear all about your plans, from the big ideas to the tiny details you're ridiculously excited about. Whether you've already decided which package feels right or you'd like a hand working it out, just get in touch.
Planning something smaller?
Not every wedding needs five, eight or ten hours of photography.
If you're planning a registry office ceremony, an intimate celebration or a micro wedding, I also offer shorter coverage. It's the same relaxed approach, just for less time.
