FREQUENTLY ASKED

HAVE A SPECIFIC QUESTION IN MIND?

If you don’t find the answer below, get in touch and we’ll be happy to help.

 

WHAT IS EDITORIAL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY?

To us, it’s about a refined, fashion-forward eye. We blend cinematic flash with authentic storytelling to move beyond standard documentation into curated art.

DO YOU OFFER 35mm FILM WEDDING PHOTOGRPAHY?

Yes. As a multimedia studio, we offer 35mm analogue film as a curated add-on to our digital coverage. We love the organic grain and nostalgia it adds to your gallery.

WILL WE HAVE FULL RIGHTS TO DOWNLOAD AND PRINT OUR IMAGES?

Absolutely. You receive full personal usage rights and unlimited high-resolution downloads of your entire editorial gallery—completely watermark-free. While you are free to print independently, your gallery includes a professional integrated print shop for those who wish to transform their digital files into high-quality physical art.

Note: For vendor or brand inquiries regarding commercial usage licenses, please get in touch to discuss a tailored agreement.

 

CAN WE HAVE THE RAW FILES?

To maintain our artistic integrity, we do not release RAW or unedited files. Our creative process only concludes once each image has been meticulously edited in our signature style. You are hiring us for our specific aesthetic, and we are committed to delivering a final gallery that is polished, intentional, and complete.

WHAT ARE YOUR DELIVERY TIMELINES?

Anticipation is part of the experience. You will receive a curated set of digital preview images within 10 days—perfect for sharing an initial look at your day.

 
Because we meticulously hand-edit every frame to ensure a consistent, editorial finish across both your stills and cinematic video, your full multimedia gallery is typically delivered within 8 to 10 weeks. We are committed to an uncompromising level of quality for our UK and destination clients, and we promise the final result will be worth the wait.

DO YOU TAKE TRADITIONAL GROUP SHOTS?

Absolutely. However, we recommend keeping the formal list intentional so you can stay immersed in your celebration. By having a trusted friend on hand to help gather guests, we can move through these swiftly and professionally.
 
This allows us to get you back to the party, where we’ll capture those candid, high-energy group shots of your guests while everyone is relaxed and mingling. Our goal is to blend these formal requirements with our signature editorial style, ensuring every part of your gallery feels consistent and effortless.

 

WE ARE PLANNING A DESTINATION CELEBRATION—DO YOU TRAVEL?

Absolutely. While we are based in the North West of England, we capture weddings across the UK and worldwide. We are seasoned travelers and well-versed in the logistics of destination celebrations.
 
A unique advantage of working with us is Seb’s fluency in Spanish and Italian, which provides an invaluable layer of ease when coordinating with local vendors and navigating international logistics. Whether it’s an editorial elopement in the Côte d'Azur or a grand celebration in Tuscany, we ensure the process is seamless. 

 

CAN WE BRING OUR DOGS TO OUR WEDDING OR ELOPEMENT?

A definitive yes. We have seen beloved pets take centre stage at UK weddings and destination elopements alike. Whether they are walking down the aisle or joining you for a sunset portrait, if they are part of your story, they should be part of your gallery. We love capturing the unfiltered, joyful and energy that pets bring to a celebration.

WE LOVE WHAT YOU DO, HOW DO WE BOOK?

The process is simple. Start by filling out our contact form below. We’ll get back to you shortly to discuss your plans, either via a video call or email, and check our availability for your date.

 
You can officially secure your date by accepting our bespoke proposal and transferring a booking fee. Once that’s done, the date is yours—and the countdown to your editorial wedding story begins.

 

WHO IS STELLA?

It’s the question we get asked most. Stella is actually Seb. He established the brand over a decade ago, drawing inspiration from his favourite beer at the time—Stella Artois.

 
While the name stuck, the brand has evolved from a local start-up into the established name in modern UK wedding photography. Today, we bring our multi-media approach with a refined editorial eye and over ten years of experience to every celebration we capture in the North West and worldwide.
