Sky Photography, wedding photography in Northamptonshire

Sky Photography is a wedding photography and video studio based in Northampton, in the English county of Northamptonshire. It is made up of Simon and Karla, a married couple who work together on every wedding and who present themselves with more than 16 years of activity and over 700 weddings covered. Their approach is documentary and natural, without forced poses or interruptions to the celebration.

Two photographers for a single wedding

The studio's distinguishing feature is that every wedding has two photographers, which makes it possible to cover both partners' preparations simultaneously and follow parallel stories that are later arranged chronologically. As the company itself explains, this translates into more angles, each person's reaction during the ceremony and a greater volume of images: usually more than 700 per wedding. The team works with time-synced cameras so that the photographs from both narratives fit together.

Documentary and guest photography

The working method consists of blending in among the guests without drawing attention and recording moments as they happen, including displays of emotion and laughter during the speeches. The company accepts lists of group photos with family and friends, which it handles quickly to get the couple back to the celebration as soon as possible. It also includes a short couple session, conceived as a break without awkward poses and designed to produce images intended to be hung at home.

Wedding videography and difficult lighting conditions

In addition to photography, Sky Photography provides wedding videography, so clients can relive the sound and emotions of the day in motion. The studio presents itself as a specialist in winter weddings and low-light situations, when natural light is scarce or the venue's lighting is poor. To do this it uses discreet lighting equipment that it employs not only as a backup but also to create creative images, and it states that it performs confidently in any weather condition and season of the year.

Pricing and coverage

The website indicates that digital coverage rates range from £450 to £2,195, depending on the part of the day to be documented. The catalogue distinguishes reduced coverage, from two hours to half a day, from £450, and full-day coverage from £1,795. The company also offers packages for small weddings, engagement shoots, family sessions, studio and outdoor portraits, and maternity and baby sessions, as well as party and event photography in Northamptonshire.

Service area

The studio operates from Northampton and regularly covers weddings in Milton Keynes, Warwickshire, Bedfordshire and Oxfordshire, as well as Leicestershire, Buckinghamshire, Rutland, Cambridgeshire and the Cotswolds. The company notes that it can also travel to other locations. Among the venues where it has worked it lists Dodford Manor, Fawsley Hall, Dodmoor House, Crockwell Farm, Rackleys Barn, Deene Park, Delapre Abbey, The Barns at Hunsbury, New Lodge, Lawns Wood Farm, Wicksteed Park, Whittlebury Park, Dibbins Wood, Brampton Grange, Bredenbury Court and Hawthorn Grove, and states that it is recommended at several of them.

Recognition and reviews

The company itself states that it has accumulated more than 200 five-star reviews across Google, Facebook and Trustpilot, and presents itself as an award-winning wedding photographer in Northampton. The testimonials it reproduces highlight smooth communication from the first consultation, discretion during the wedding and the speed of delivering a preview of images on the same day and a teaser video weeks later.
