What to Expect
Before the Wedding
Before your wedding, I’d love to meet you both and hear all about your plans — whether that’s in person or over Zoom. It’s a lovely chance to ensure I’m the right fit for your wedding photography desires and to chat through your day.
If you’d like, we can also visit your North Wales venue together, especially if it’s a location where I haven’t photographed weddings before. This gives us a chance to explore the best photo spots and discuss any ideas you have.
I’m always here in the run-up to your wedding to offer support, guidance, and reassurance wherever I can.
Each of my wedding photography packages also includes a complimentary engagement session, which is such a valuable part of the experience. It gives us a chance to get to know each other, helps you feel more relaxed in front of the camera, and allows me to understand what feels natural and comfortable for you both before the big day.
On the day
The day before your wedding, I’ll check in with you to go over the final details and answer any last-minute questions regarding your wedding photography packages. On your special day, I’ll arrive early—smart, professional, and ready to capture everything as it unfolds, from morning preparations and venue details to the ceremony, family photos, natural moments, and your first dance, all part of my natural wedding photography style. I’m confident, friendly, and happy to gently guide guests when needed. At the same time, I know when to blend into the background to capture those beautiful, natural moments without guests feeling overly aware of the camera. My approach is always led by you, your plans, and the atmosphere of your day, ensuring your gallery reflects the relaxed, personal vibe of your wedding, completely true to you.
After the Wedding
You’ll be relieved to know that the first thing I do when I get home from photographing your wedding is to double back up all the RAW images. These images are now ready to be edited in my signature style, perfect for natural wedding photography.
Just 24 hours after your wedding, you’ll receive a picture gallery preview of your day, so you don’t have to wait ages for that first glimpse.
Approximately six weeks after your wedding, you can expect the complete wedding photography package to be delivered, including all your wedding gallery. Once received, be sure to download the entire gallery to two different devices for backup purposes.

"From the moment Stephanie arrived, I felt completely at ease. Neither of us are naturals in front of the camera, but her guidance during our wedding made everything feel effortless. Looking back at our photos, they reflect who we are. So many genuine, emotional, and filled with moments we didn’t even realise were happening. She truly captured the essence of the day perfectly"

“Isla Lacey Photography was always going to be our first choice. We have enjoyed photography sessions in the past and have fallen in love with Steph's natural style and how relaxed she makes us feel. Receiving our wedding gallery made me cry happy tears. It captured our day so beautifully without ever making it feel staged. Half the time, we didn’t even realise she was there, yet she somehow caught every important moment. The photos bring everything back exactly as it felt.”

"I was so nervous about being photographed all day for our wedding, but Stephanie made our engagement session feel completely relaxed; my nerves were nonexistent on the big day. Nothing felt forced or awkward, and the photos truly reflect that. I would happily recommend Isla Lacey Photography to anyone getting married."

"We explored numerous local Photographers and attended most, if not all, of the North Wales Wedding events leading up to selecting our suppliers. Stephanie truly stood out as a professional Wedding Photographer with an amazing personality, making her a breath of fresh air to be around. She is not only a talented photographer but also a compassionate and down-to-earth person. With her calm presence, which is exactly what you need on your wedding day, she blended in seamlessly and captured all the little in-between moments that we’ll treasure forever. We also appreciated the different wedding photography packages she offered, which made the entire process even more meaningful and personalised."

“We didn’t want anything too posed or traditional for our wedding, and she understood that perfectly. It didn't feel forced or like a photoshoot! which is what we ultimately wanted. The whole experience felt natural and easy. She made us feel so comfortable from start to finish. Even our guests commented on how lovely and professional she was. The photos are everything we hoped for and more.”
