Documentary Photography BSC style 📸


This package is perfect for those who don't like old-fashioned posed-style photography or those who prefer just to enjoy the day!


We've all been to one of those weddings where it feels like all you do is wade through a giant list of formal photos, along with a load of awkward posing options that drag on for hours. This is generally no fun for anyone IMO! The good news is it doesn't have to be that way to document your day 💜


No cheesy poses, no cringe! Just fun, laidback coverage with awesome photos.


An optional couples portrait session/group shot is included 🙌


Documentary Wedding Reel


Here's a photo highlight reel from a recent all-day documentary-only. Which included a super quick 15-minute couple shoot.


A frequently asked questions with this package... "Is 15 minutes enough to get amazing portraits?" Oh yes! I'll let the photos do the talking 💜


What you'll get with this package


  • Flexible documentary coverage. (options from 6 to 12 hours).


  • Optional relaxed couples portrait sessions. For those wow factor portraits.


  • One optional group shot.


  • Two sets of digital photos! All photos in both colour and a set duplicate in black & white 💜 I have a strong bias towards black and white, as you may have noticed from my portfolio 🤣. Rest assured you will receive both colour and black and white for every single photo I deliver 😍


  • There is no limit on the number of photos delivered, as our style is documentary there will be lots! A typical wedding is approximately 100 photos per hour.


  • Photos are curated and edited individually by your photographer.


  • A private online gallery to share with guests and family.


  • Print rights are included so you can make your own books/prints/etc.


  • Meet your photographer. A pre-wedding meeting about 4-6 weeks before your big day.


  • No extra travel costs for weddings within a 60-mile radius of Newcastle NE4.



FREE Extras included with this package


  • One Highlight Video. Same week sneak peek! We'll share a curated selection of the best shots from your day and create a short highlight video for you to share with friends and family.


  • Two free prints of your choice printed at our studio by your photographer.

Recommended option


Option 2 is the most popular choice as 10 hours is pretty much the perfect amount for a full-day wedding.


Coverage typically starts one hour before the ceremony (allow for two hours if you want getting ready photos) and finishes an hour after the first dance, or later if the party is jumping! This is super flexible and will be tailored to your preferences.

Feedback on our documentary style

Customer Review

We picked Graeme as our wedding photographer as we wanted a really relaxed, laid-back style of photos to remember the day by and on this Graeme has delivered. It was great to have the option of all the prints in colour and B&W too.

My husband isn't great at having his photo taken and wasn't looking forward to this part of the day but Graeme put us both at ease and we've got some beautiful memories of the day now captured forever.

Documentary FAQ


What is Reportage Wedding Photography?

Reportage Photography goes by a few different names, often called Documentary, Candid or Fly on the Wall style. It is all about telling the story of your day in a natural authentic style. Without interfering with proceedings or staging photos.


We thrive on capturing real moments and documenting your big day from start to finish. Skipping formal portraits is also less editing work behind the scenes and therefore we can offer this package at a cheaper rate.


Your photographer is friendly and will blend in, chat and mingle with guests. This is part of the service and is essential to ensure they are at ease with a camera floating around and let their guard down!


Who is it for?

This style is becoming hugely popular with modern laidback couples who just want to enjoy the day and not have to leave their guests to disappear for photos!


I highly recommend it for couples who aren't sure they want a photographer. This option is a perfect compromise. None of the cringe or discomfort.


Also works great for those who'd like a stunning professional set of images to look back on for years to come but who are a bit uncomfortable in front of the camera.


What if you'd like a few couple photos?

We'd recommend getting at least a few shots of the couple. This is optional and lasts about 15 minutes. We'll direct you and capture you together in a subtle and natural way, with no awkward poses!


What if guests want a quick posed shot?

Of course, we are happy to oblige any photo requests from your guests on the day, (so it's not super strict documentary only!) if anyone asks for a posed shot on the day we will happily snap away 📷


Can we do confetti shots?

Hell yes 🎉


Can we do a group shot?

Yes, we can squeeze in one very quick group shot if required. However this totally optional and you can skip if you'd prefer! Please make sure to request this during your pre-wedding meeting.


How many photographers?


Only one photographer is needed, this way we keep a discrete low profile. Our photographer is laidback, fun, and friendly with a canny knack for blending into the background. So you won't notice he is there most of the time. Those make for the best shots!
