FAQs
Answers to common questions about my services, process, and how I bring your creative vision to life.
I specialise in portrait, event, and travel photography. Whether you need professional headshots, candid moments at your event, lifestyle content for your brand, or travel images that tell a story, I can help bring your vision to life. I also work with influencers and small brands to create unique social media content, and I’m always open to new and creative projects. If you have something specific in mind, just reach out—I love collaborating on original ideas.
Yes, event photography is a big part of what I do! From intimate gatherings and private parties to live music, concerts, and brand events, I capture moments as they unfold, with a focus on atmosphere and genuine emotion. I use professional equipment suited for low-light and fast-paced environments, ensuring sharp, vibrant images no matter the setting. Let me know your event details and I’ll tailor a package for you.
My home base is London, but I regularly travel throughout the UK for shoots, and I’m available for select international projects. I’m always excited to explore new locations and bring fresh perspectives to my work. For shoots outside London, a travel fee may apply (I’ll always be transparent about costs upfront). If you’re planning something a bit further afield, let’s chat—remote and destination work is always possible.
Booking is simple! You can fill out the contact form on my website or email me directly at adrian@marbsmedia.co.uk. Let me know a bit about your project, your preferred dates, and any ideas or inspiration you have in mind. I’ll get back to you within 24 hours to confirm details, discuss your vision, answer any questions, and secure your booking. If you’re not sure what you need yet, just reach out for a no-pressure chat.
Pricing varies depending on the type of shoot, the duration, the number of images required, and any special requests (such as travel or bespoke editing). I offer transparent packages for popular services (like headshots, events, and influencer shoots), as well as custom quotes for unique projects. Once I know more about your needs, I’ll provide a clear, itemised quote—no hidden fees or surprises.
After your shoot, I carefully select and edit the best images to my signature standard. Most galleries are delivered within 7–10 days, but turnaround can vary depending on the project size and my schedule. If you need your photos sooner, just let me know—I can often accommodate tight deadlines or offer expedited editing for an additional fee.
Your images will be delivered in a private, password-protected online gallery. From there, you can view, download, and share your photos in high resolution. Galleries are accessible from any device, so it’s easy to review and select your favourites, or share with family, friends, or colleagues. I can also provide guidance on printing, sharing, and social media use if you need.
Yes! I offer high-quality prints and wall art through a professional print lab, directly from your online gallery. Choose from a variety of finishes, sizes, and formats to perfectly match your space or project. Prints and wall art are shipped straight to your door, with delivery options across the UK and internationally. If you need help choosing, I’m happy to offer recommendations.
Absolutely. I license images for commercial, editorial, and campaign use, both directly and through select stock platforms. Whether you’re a brand, magazine, or creative agency, I can provide high-resolution files with the appropriate usage rights for your needs. Contact me with details about your project, and I’ll provide rates, terms, and sample images as needed.
Yes, you are welcome to share your photos on your personal social media, website, or with friends and family. I kindly ask that you credit me when posting online—ideally by tagging @adrian.marbs on Instagram or mentioning my name alongside the image. This helps support my work and allows others to find my photography.
For any commercial use (such as brand collaborations, paid partnerships, or promotional campaigns), please get in touch to discuss licensing options and proper usage rights.Every photo you receive is carefully edited to my professional standard, including colour grading, cropping, and basic retouching. If you want more advanced edits—like detailed skin retouching, background adjustments, or creative effects—just let me know. I’m happy to provide custom editing on request and can quote for any special requirements.
I always keep an eye on the weather forecast leading up to your shoot. For portrait and lifestyle sessions, I offer full flexibility—if the conditions aren’t right, we can reschedule at no extra cost or adapt to an indoor or sheltered location. Your comfort and the quality of the images always come first.
For events such as concerts, live gigs, or occasions that go ahead regardless of the weather, I’m fully prepared to shoot in any conditions. My equipment is weather-sealed and I’m experienced working outdoors—rain or shine—so you can trust I’ll capture the moment whatever the forecast.
Yes, a deposit is required to confirm your booking and secure your date in my calendar. The deposit amount will be outlined in your quote and is deducted from your final balance. This helps protect both our time and ensures your slot is reserved. Final payment is due on or before the shoot date.
I’m always happy to help—just reach out via the contact form or email, and I’ll respond as soon as I can.
