Welcome to Richard Lycett Wedding Photography. Professional Wedding Photographer covering Birmingham and the West Midlands.

I offer a totally bespoke and flexible service, with wedding and album packages starting at £399, going all the way to £1995 for a FULL day with TOP RANGE LEATHER WEDDING ALBUM.

Book me for your Wedding, you will get everything you would expect from a Professional Photographer; care and attention to the job in hand, plenty of discussion with you what you want from the day, pictures taken of the Bride's preparation beforehand (if requested - but I love this part of the day because it's so private - it's just you and your family and bridesmaids), family groups, reportage (as many photographers do today, if you want it), Reception photographs and choice of albums. I don't see my self as a "budget" photographer, though my rates are competitive, while still being able to offer top quality photographs and handmade albums. I generally shoot in what photographers call a "relaxed style" and "reportage", which, in English, means candid photography, so subjects do not always know they are being photographed and are therefore more relaxed, and that the "story" of the events of the day can be fully captured. There will also be some formal group shots, as some of your guests may prefer this for pictures they may want to purchase. It is up to you, of course, what you put into your album.

Post-Shoot

Images will be cropped and enhanced as necessary. Enhancement includes any Photoshop retouching required. Other work I will do will be:

• Removal or addition of "grain" to enhance mood of a photograph.
• Conversion of photographs to black & white / black & white and colour / sepia toning / vignetting / soft focus effects. I will do this to photographs that I feel will work best from this alteration, though if you feel you would like this done to other images, I will be happy to oblige for no extra cost. Examples of all of these treatments can be seen in my portfolio.

Photographs will normally be made available to see on my website within 7 days. This will allow others to see the day if they could not make it and enable ordering of their prints online. A wide variety of print sizes are available from 6"x4" up to 18"x12" and beyond if you wish. Other options include canvas prints, acrylic and etchings.

Book me as your photographer and you are employing an experienced photographer who is willing to go that extra bit further to make sure you have a beautiful record of the best day of your life. I have backup equipment and am fully insured.

I am able to photograph your wedding wherever you are in the country. I am based in the Midlands, but with good access to the motorway network, I am never going to be too far away from you.

Please email me now with your wedding date and location and I will advise you of my availability. Richard@RichardLycettPhotography.co.uk or 07977 596662 / 01562 861951.

If you have been to a recent wedding and need to see the photographs for viewing and ordering, please email me, stating the name of the couple, date and location and I will direct you to the appropriate web address where the pictures are located. This is purely for the peace of mind of the couple concerned, who may not always desire free access to their photographs from the whole internet. All emails will be answered within 24 hours.
