Essex Wedding Photographer & Videographer – Tony Davies

COMBO 2 EXPLAINED

Combo package 2 works best for weddings that take place at one venue, from morning preparations right through to the evening dance floor. As I work solo, I’m unable to cover multi-location days such as church ceremonies followed by a separate reception venue. However, if your day does involve multiple locations, there is always the option to add one of my trusted assistants (Combo 3), keeping everything under one roof while maintaining the same relaxed, cohesive style.


Can Combo Package 2 work for you?

This option is ideal if:

  • Your entire wedding day takes place at one venue.
  • You’re a laid-back, chilled couple who want to enjoy the day rather than stage it.
  • You don’t want an endless list of formal family photos.
  • You trust me to capture the story naturally while you focus on having the best day ever.

If that sounds like you, this package works beautifully.

How Your Day Will Run
Please note that with the Combo 2 Package, photography is always the priority throughout the day. While I will switch to video mode whenever time and moments allow, video coverage is captured around the photography rather than alongside it at all times.

As I’m working solo, there will be moments throughout the day where my focus must remain on photography, meaning not every part of the day will be captured on video. Fast-moving moments such as confetti, candid interactions and parts of the drinks reception may be photographed only.

This package is perfect for couples who primarily want beautiful, relaxed wedding photography, while also loving the idea of having some video moments captured throughout the day.

The more relaxed and laid-back the schedule and atmosphere, the more opportunity I have to naturally capture additional video content alongside your photographs.

Pre-Ceremony
From the moment I arrive, I’ll begin capturing natural, behind-the-scenes moments through photography, while also dipping into video where possible. If the weather and venue allow, I’ll also capture some cinematic aerial drone footage to set the scene.

The Ceremony
During the ceremony, my full focus is on photography — capturing all the emotion, reactions and key moments as they unfold. At the same time, two discreet static video cameras will be set up to professionally record your ceremony in full, without any disruption.

Drinks Reception
Straight after the ceremony, we’ll get the confetti shot done, then I always encourage my couples to relax and enjoy 30 minutes or so of mingling. During this time, I’ll be capturing lots of natural, candid photos, and where possible, some short video clips that really reflect the atmosphere of the day.

After that, I’ll gently gather you for your family group photos. I recommend keeping this to around 5-10 group shots max so you’re not taken away from your guests for too long. Once complete, we’ll take a short wander for a relaxed couples shoot around the venue — capturing both photos and a few beautiful video moments in around 10–15 minutes.

Speeches
Just like the ceremony, speeches are recorded in full using static video cameras, while I focus on photographing all the reactions, laughter and emotion happening around the room.

First Dance & Evening Party
Your first dance will be recorded with a static video camera while I photograph the moment. After that, I continue to prioritise photography, capturing the energy of the dance floor and your guests enjoying the evening.

Where time allows, I’ll switch into video to capture a few additional clips to round off your film. I’ll usually stay for around 20–30 minutes after the first dance to document the party before packing up and saying my goodbyes.
