Weddings ARE…
An incredible mix of people, family, moments, romance, characters, hopes, 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 DISCREET storytelling wedding photographer…
Capturing things as they’re happening, in a discreet, relaxed and authentic way. I’m a Londoner, now living in beautiful Sussex by the sea – I really love what I do and will travel anywhere for your wedding. I’ll blend those authentic, real wedding moments with some romantic and beautiful portraits of the two of you. My approach isn’t about one size fits all, forcing fake shots or letting the photography take 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. Real, authentic moments. I’m there to capture all those moments and to let my photos tell your story.
Moments 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. Authentic emotions, not a show. I pour my heart and soul into every wedding I shoot, and want all my couples to feel they’ve had real value, 100% of me, my energy and my natural, creative take on your wedding day. Weddings are collaborations – 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 an experienced wedding photographer and have shot over 500 weddings. Most 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 will 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, reassuring, experienced presence when you need it.
