Your Wedding, Your Way

Capturing the essence of your day through a series of photographs

Photography is not just a financial investment, it is an emotional investment. A good picture will evoke emotions, convey a story without the need for words. Every picture taken will become part of your story, each moment frozen in time, allowing you to relive your day over and over again. An investment that will last forever.

A day you will remember for the rest of your lives

The Experience

When we first meet and chat about the exciting plans for your wedding, wether that is a rustic barn wedding, an elopement in a castle or a Boujie wedding, you can guarantee I will listen to what you want and how you would like your day photographed. From the moment you book to on the day itself you will receive support and guidance every step of the way.

Manorbier Castle Wedding

It's your wedding, your story, your adventure.

On the day your wedding will be photographed in a natural and unobtrusive way allowing me to capture authentic, beautiful pictures that reflect your story. So be yourselves, bring the dogs, go bare foot on the beach, climb a mountain. It's your wedding, your story, your adventure.

You can trust me, as your photographer to document every beautiful moment and you will have the best experience ever.

The Wholehouse wedding

It doesn’t stop there

Once the day is over, the experience doesn’t stop there. Yes, you will receive awesome photographs but you will also receive a personal album design service and on-going support for your gallery, print and wall art orders.

Plus you would have made a new friend who will be there to photograph the rest of your exciting journey.

Let me capture your story

NO WEDDING IS THE SAME

You are unique and every couple deserves photos that are different to everyone else’s. Pictures that capture your individuality, personality and story.

STAY CLAM AND CARRY ON

Your wedding will be a stress free fun day that flows with virtually no interruptions, and with minimal “allocated” photo time. You will get time together, where you can run away and be yourselves and have the best adventure yet.

NOT JUST YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

With over 20 years experience I am here to make sure you have the best day ever. From advise on timings, what happens if it rains, supplier recommendations, a free guide with help and tips and unlimited free consultations.

Steve Wheller

Your personal ninja

A lot of my couples call me a ninja, not sure why, maybe because I’m stealthy and sneak around capturing the photos without being seen or just because I’m a short arse at 5ft 5″. With over 20 years experience and 100’s of weddings photographed all over the UK, couples have trusted me to photograph one of the most important days of their lives. So the best things do come in small packages.

 

Steve Wheller | South Wales Wedding Photographer

Steve is an absolute genius. If we could do it all over again, and only hire one person/vendor for our day, it would be Steve 1000 times over.

Melissa & Dio

When it came to our couple photos, he made us feel calm and relaxed and made it a time where we could run away and just be ourselves

Lauren & Ali

Honestly if you are looking for a stress free, unique, professional photographer and a photographer that adapts to you as a couple Steve is your man

A break from the chaos of day where you breathe, be together and feel like you’re the only two people in the world.

Magical photos out of what could’ve
been pure chaos

When my husband and I talk about how perfect our wedding was, we always end up talking about Steve. He is so friendly and was extremely helpful on the day, managing to wrangle our guests into order and creating absolutely magical photos out of what could’ve been pure chaos. He made everybody feel at ease, and allayed any jitters or discomfort we had by the notion of posing or being photographed simply by being so approachable and kind. Our photos turned out so dreamy – hiring him really was one of the best choices we made around the wedding. We’re recommending him to everybody we know going forward x

Please let me know If you are thinking about having a video of your wedding day. I work alongside some amazing videographers whose style and creativity match my own. It is also important that we work as a team and in harmony with each other. If this is something you are interested in then I will send you my wedding guide where you will be able to choose from a wide range of recommended videographers.

This means you get to choose the videographer for you, within your price range and guarantees you get the perfect partnership for your day.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Get in touch via my contact form and check availability. Sometimes I can get booked up 1 to 2 years in advance. If available we can then arrange a free consultation.

A booking fee (£250 for a full day collection) is required to secure my services for your wedding. The balance is then due 6 weeks before the day. This can be paid by BACS or card and receipts are provided for all payments. The final balance can also be paid in instalments up to your wedding day.

Yes of course. Most of my weddings are based in South Wales but happy to travel throughout the UK and abroad. Travel costs are included for weddings throughout the UK. If a wedding is over 1.5 hours drive from Bridgend then I would usually stay overnight the day before and accommodation costs would apply.

YES – I have public liability and personal indemnity insurance. I also have two camera bodies, back up flash guns, batteries, memory cards etc. Plus all your images are backed up forever offline and online.

After the initial meeting you are welcome to email, message or call me with any questions you may have. After all I am going to be with you on the biggest days of your lives so it’s nice to become friends and get to know each other and this is how you build your trust in me to capture your day. If the venue is local then I am happy to meet up have a walk around and have a chat about the final details of your day.

My all day coverage is around 10 – 12 hours but sometimes it can be longer, depending if your party is rocking. Your coverage is natural, uninterrupted photography telling the story of your day. This means making sure they have time to enjoy the day, mingle with their guests, soak in the atmosphere, have a few group photos and enjoy each other’s company with a timeout shoot which includes some creative portraits. I capture the story as it unfolds – from the final wedding preps to the dancing in the night.

Don’t worry and enjoy the day as it happens. As long as there is some space at the venue for group photos we still go outside for the couple portraits. I always advise the bride to bring a change of shoes or even wellies so you can go outside and not worry about your shoes getting dirty. Whilst the both you are dry under an umbrella I usually get soaking wet whilst capturing some beautiful natural moments. If you don’t want to go outside then I use the venue’s rooms to shoot the portraits in.

I aim to deliver the full wedding gallery to you within 2 to 4 weeks (longer in high season). You will receive up to 30 preview images within 48 hours to share on social media

I have been very fortunate that over the last 20 years I have never not covered a wedding. But in an extreme situation where this might happen I have the support of a large network of professional photographers who will be able to cover your wedding.

As part of my service I send you my wedding guide full of advice and supplier recommendations plus  will run through the timings with you for the day. Making sure there is enough time for couple portraits, group photos and most important time for you to enjoy every moment with your friends and family.

Yes I provide beautiful 12 x 12 albums in a range of cover finishes and styles. You can either choose an album collection at the time of booking or you can purchase an album any time after your wedding. I also offer the a voucher service where family and friends can purchase gift vouchers to a certain value which you can then put towards the cost of an album or prints.

Yes I provide full resolution digital files for you to print or share. These are for personal use only. If a venue or publication approaches you for use of your images then the venue or publication has to get in touch with myself for  permission and usage rights.

I choose to work on my own 90% of the time. That way I can blend in with your guests and capture all the natural moments. Nobody wants a group of photographers following them around all day. If the wedding party is over 120 people or if you would like groom prep coverage, then I do offer a second photographer for different coverage options (Charges apply and you can choose your option at the time of booking).

At the time of booking you can add optional extras to your collections. Optional extras include a second photographer, ceremony video, engagement/pre wedding shoot, content creation and stay late option.

All parts of the booking are done online. To start the booking process I will email you my photography quote where you can choose what collection you would like plus add any optional extras to that collection. Once you have chosen everything and accepted the quote my contract and invoice will automatically be sent to you. Please fill in and sign the online contract. The invoice will show the total collection price chosen and the booking fee amount required to secure the date. 

You then pay the booking fee and advised when paid. I will then confirm that the booking is secured. Your balance is then due 6 weeks before the wedding date or can be paid by installments so you can spread the cost. 

Thank you for immortalising the best day of our lives

Honestly I wish we could afford to hire Steve full time to capture all of our moments in life – he is just an absolute master and deserves to rise to fame in this industry. We love you, Steve!! Thank you for immortalizing the best day of our lives in such an incredible, beautiful way. We will never be able to thank you enough!
