Sandman Signature Aberdeen Wedding Photography.
As your Aberdeen wedding photographer, I know the city quite well. I spent over five years in college there many years ago, and there have been a few changes. Now, living an hour away, I am ideally situated to attend your wedding at Sandman Signature Aberdeen. 
 
I'll start your Aberdeen wedding photography at prep in the morning. I primarily work candidly throughout the morning, capturing hair, makeup, and fun moments. I'll also get some beautiful photos of your dress and any jewellery you have.
Once you and your bridesmaids are in your dresses, I'll capture some moments together, whether staged in beautiful light or fun moments with a glass of bubbly.
Right before you set off, I will capture your Dad's first glimpse of you in your dress and a few with your parents. 
With the Robert Gordon Ballroom ceremony over, it's time for your drink’s reception on the mezzanine. But before we get that far, I will use the lobby for a big group photo of everyone looking down from the mezzanine. Family group photos are out of the way. I will take you away for a moment's pause, using this stylish hotel's features, whether the LED-lit corridors, the umbrellas adorning the lobby, or the Freedom Whisky Bar.
After your wedding meal in the Robert Gordon Ballroom, it's time to welcome your evening guests so they can arrive in time for the dancing. 

Sandman Signature Aberdeen Wedding Photography Packages.

I've recently streamlined my Aberdeen wedding photography packages. I have now added hybrid wedding photography as an option to my packages (which are included in the Premium). What is Hybrid wedding photography? It's where I switch between photography and video highlights, which is easily achieved by having mounted video cameras ( on and off camera), and my cameras are capable of the best video as well. It doesn't replace a full videographer but gives up to a 10-minute highlight film to music without audio. For full details on my hybrid wedding photography, please visit this blog.
 
Starting with the Digital package, which is as it sounds. Start as you get ready and continue to your first dance or two. Your wedding photos are delivered to your password-protected gallery.
 
My Classic package is similar to the digital except it contains a handmade Italian wedding album alongside your gallery photos. 
 
The best value option is my Premium package, packed with many extras, including a pre-wedding session with video highlights, a second photographer for all those candid moments, video highlights content, and an Italian handmade wedding album with two matching parent albums.
 
If you are planning your Aberdeen wedding at the Sandman Signature, I'd love to chat and hear your plans.
