Pat Sharpe Photography

Full wedding photography from preparations through to the reception. I offer three packages - Essentials, Signature, and Complete - covering between 6 and 10 hours of coverage. Optional extras include additional coverage hours, a custom wedding album, and travel outside the Uusimaa region.

Based in Espoo, I cover the whole of Finland. A small travel fee of €0.50/km applies outside the Uusimaa region. I also shoot destination weddings abroad - just ask.

All packages include professionally edited high-resolution images, a private online gallery, guided family photos and couple portraits, and documentary coverage of the key moments. The number of hours varies by package - 6, 8, or 10 hours depending on which you choose.

The Signature package is the most popular choice. It covers up to 8 hours - from morning preparations through to the first dance - and suits most wedding days perfectly. A custom wedding album is a popular add-on for couples who want something physical to keep.

As early as possible, especially for summer dates. I recommend booking 6 to 12 months in advance. Get in touch to check availability for your date.

Three packages are available:

Essentials €1,475 - up to 6 hours, preparations, ceremony and part of the reception
Signature €1,700 - up to 8 hours, preparations through to the first dance
Complete €1,875 - up to 10 hours, the full day from morning to evening, plus a highlight slideshow
All packages include professionally edited high-resolution images and a private online gallery. Additional coverage is €100/hr. Travel outside Uusimaa is €0.50/km.

Yes. If you need more coverage than your package includes, extra hours can be added at €100/hr. A custom wedding album can be added to any package. If you have specific requests or a non-standard wedding format - an elopement, a destination wedding, a longer day - just get in touch and we can put together something that works for you.

Get in touch via the contact form or email to check availability. Once your date is confirmed, a non-refundable deposit and a signed agreement are required to secure the booking. The remaining balance is due closer to the wedding date.

The booking deposit is non-refundable. If you cancel more than 4 months before your wedding date, the remaining balance is refundable. For cancellations within 4 months of the date, the remaining balance may not be refundable. If your plans change in other ways - venue, timing, guest numbers - get in touch and we'll work it out together.

I'm a British photographer based in Finland, which makes me a natural choice for English-speaking and international couples. You can communicate freely and naturally on your wedding day, without any language barrier. My approach is relaxed and documentary - I stay in the background, capture the real moments, and never interrupt the day to get a shot.

Documentary and natural. I arrive early, blend into the background, and let the day unfold. I capture the genuine emotions, the quiet moments, and the big ones too. Guided group photos and couple portraits are included when needed, but the focus is always on real moments over posed ones.

I let my work speak for itself. You can see my portfolio at www.patsharpephotography.com and find me on Instagram at @pat_sharpe_photography.

Book your photographer early - summer weekends in Finland fill up fast, and most couples book 6 to 12 months ahead.

Most importantly, remember that your wedding day is yours. It's not for Instagram. Don't spend the day worrying about how things look for the camera - focus on enjoying every moment with the person you're marrying. The quiet moments, the laughter, the tears, the things only the two of you notice. Those are the moments that matter, and those are the moments I'm there to capture. The best photos always come from couples who are fully present in their day, not performing for a lens.

On the day itself, trust the process, relax, and enjoy yourselves. The photos will look after themselves.
