Weddings ARE…
An incredible mix of people, family, moments, romance, characters, hopes, gestures, emotions, happiness, nerves, excitement and love. Lots of it. It’s all there, crammed and squished tightly into one long, lovely day. And I love that I get to share in days like this through my photography, capturing those lovely, authentic wedding moments as I see them, for couples who get excited about photography and understand its value – not just for now but for the future too. For their children, and their children’s children…
I’m a creative storytelling wedding photographer…
Capturing things as they’re happening, in a relaxed and candid way. I’m a Londoner, now living in beautiful Sussex by the sea, and love what I do and will travel anywhere for weddings. I’ll blend those authentic, real wedding moments with some romantic and creative portraits of the two of you. My approach isn’t about one size fits all, no boxes to fit into or the photography taking over your wedding day, far from it. I don’t interrupt the day’s events but simply let things flow. Weddings are all about moments… funny moments, romantic moments, silly moments, family moments, unexpected moments, tender moments, in-between moments. I’m there to capture all those moments and to let me photos tell your story.
Moments that become your stories…
For those couples who want to do it their way and aren’t afraid to show the world how much they mean to each another. I pour my heart and soul into every single wedding I shoot, and want all my couples to feel they’ve had real value, 100% of me, my energy, all my TLC and my creative take on your wedding day. Weddings are collaborations and I’ll tell you what I need from you as well as letting you have lots of help, guidance and support along the way so you don’t feel overwhelmed or lost. I’m a very experienced wedding photographer and have shot over 700 weddings. Most weddings happen without a hitch and a truly fabulous day is had by all. But they’re not always perfect and they don’t always go to plan. At times they can be a bit stressful, time slips and nerves kick in… but rest assured, I’m here to help and guide you throughout the run up to the wedding, and will be there with you 100% on your day, a safe pair of hands, a calm assuring presence when you need it.
