Your celebration & locations
Do you photograph Sikh, Hindu and Muslim weddings?

Share your ceremony schedule and any photography restrictions with us so we can discuss coverage around the traditions that matter to you. Explore our wedding portfolio.
Do you cover multi-day Indian weddings?

Which areas do you cover?
Ikonic Media Solutions is based in Wednesbury and covers Birmingham, Wolverhampton, West Bromwich, Coventry, Solihull, Sutton Coldfield and the wider West Midlands. We also cover Leicester, London, Manchester, Cardiff and other UK locations, with destination weddings by arrangement.
Do you offer pre-wedding and engagement shoots?

Films, drones & your team
Do you offer wedding videography and cinematic films?
Yes. We offer cinematic wedding filmmaking on its own or alongside photography. Coverage and deliverables are individually quoted according to your schedule and priorities. Watch films on our official YouTube channel and tell us which moments you most want included.
Do you provide same-day edits?
Same-day edits can be discussed as an additional service. Please confirm availability, the format, running time and delivery arrangements before booking; do not assume a same-day edit is included in your photography or film coverage.
Do you offer drone photography?
Drone photography and filming may be available as part of your bespoke quotation where venue permissions, aviation restrictions and weather conditions allow. We will discuss suitability for your location when planning your coverage.
Do you bring a second photographer and backup equipment?
We can include an additional photographer when simultaneous preparations, multiple locations or a larger celebration call for a team. We carry professional backup cameras and equipment. The team size is agreed in your quotation.
04
Your photographs & privacy
How long until we receive our wedding photos?
Your quotation and booking agreement confirm the expected delivery schedule for edited photographs and any films. Photographs are delivered through a private online gallery. Ask for the expected turnaround before booking, particularly if you need images by a specific date.
Can we see a complete wedding gallery?
Browse our portfolio first, then ask during your consultation about viewing a complete gallery relevant to your celebration. A full gallery is useful for assessing coverage across preparations, the ceremony, portraits and the reception.
How are our photographs backed up?
We carry backup cameras and equipment on the day. For file storage, ask us to explain the backup process, how long your files and gallery remain available, and how to download and keep your own copies. Confirm these details before booking.
Can we keep our wedding photographs private?
Tell us about any privacy requirements before booking, including whether you want to restrict website or social media use. Ask for your agreed preferences to be recorded in writing. You can also read our privacy policy.
05
Changes & peace of mind
What happens if we postpone or cancel?
Contact us as soon as your plans change. Check your booking agreement for the terms that apply to postponement, cancellation, payments and date availability. Ask us to clarify anything you are unsure about before you book.
What happens if the photographer is ill?
Ask us to explain the contingency arrangements for illness or an emergency, including how any replacement would be arranged. Confirm the applicable arrangements in your booking agreement before securing your date.
What if it rains on our wedding day?
Discuss an indoor portrait option with your venue and photography team before the wedding. A covered space and a little flexibility in the schedule can help. Drone coverage remains subject to suitable weather and permissions.
