Wedding Photography Packages
Luxury Full Day Wedding Photography
Your wedding is not a photoshoot. It is a day filled with people, emotions and moments that will never happen in quite the same way again.
Our wedding photography packages are designed for couples who want their whole story captured naturally, without spending the day being directed from one photograph to the next.
With two experienced wedding photographers, relaxed documentary coverage and no restrictive hourly limit, we can photograph your day as it genuinely unfolds. From the excitement of getting ready to the emotion of the ceremony and the energy of the evening celebrations, we are there to preserve far more than the obvious moments.
We offer three full-day wedding photography collections, each providing the same attentive service and complete digital coverage. You can then choose whether you would also like an engagement shoot, printed photographs or a bespoke wedding album.

Inside, you will find an engraved wooden USB containing your finished photographs, alongside either a miniature linen accordion album or a collection of 30 printed photographs.
Why Choose One Thousand Words?
Two Photographers, One Complete Story
Weddings rarely happen in a neat sequence.
While one of you is getting ready, the other may be welcoming family or sharing a drink with friends. During the ceremony, one photographer can focus on the vows while the other captures the reactions of the people around you.
Having two photographers means we can be in two places at once. It allows us to tell a richer, more complete story without repeatedly interrupting the day or asking moments to be recreated.
It also gives you:
- Coverage of both partners getting ready
- Different perspectives during the ceremony
- More photographs of guests and natural reactions
- Greater flexibility when timings overlap
- Additional professional support and backup throughout the day
Experienced Wedding Photographers You Can Rely On
We have photographed more than 400 weddings together, from intimate Dorset celebrations to large UK and destination weddings.
That experience helps us anticipate what is about to happen, adapt when plans change and remain calm when timings do not go quite as expected.
We can offer guidance when you need it, but we will never try to turn your wedding into a production. Most of the time, we work quietly in the background, observing what is happening and capturing it naturally.
When it is time for group photographs or couple portraits, we provide enough direction to help everything run smoothly while keeping the experience relaxed and enjoyable.
What Does “No Time Limits” Mean?
Our full-day packages do not restrict your coverage to a rigid number of hours. We plan our photography around the natural shape of your wedding, from the preparations through to the evening celebrations.
This allows us to photograph the complete story without you worrying about additional hourly charges or rushing important moments to fit a timetable.
We will discuss your plans during the consultation and help you work out when coverage should begin. On the wedding day itself, we remain flexible and respond to what is actually happening.
Relaxed Documentary Wedding Photography
Our approach is centred on real moments rather than staged perfection.
We look for the nervous glances, unexpected laughter, proud parents, emotional embraces and brief interactions that can easily go unnoticed during such a busy day.
We will not spend hours pulling you away from your guests. Instead, we create space for you to enjoy your wedding while we document it from within.
Of course, most couples still want some family photographs and beautiful portraits together. We plan these carefully, keep them efficient and provide relaxed guidance so that you never feel abandoned in front of the camera.
The result is a gallery that looks beautiful but still feels unmistakably like your wedding. You can see more examples in our wedding photography gallery.

Engagement Photoshoots
An engagement shoot is included with both the Deluxe and Library Editions and can be added to the Digital Edition. We also offer engagement photoshoots as an individual service for couples who want the experience before booking wedding photography.
