They're all about love and connection with a hint of intimacy. If the people in your life are your world — and you laugh, joke and cry together — this wedding story is about you all. If you value photography, we are going to get on. Only couples that have value in photography will work with me. If you need a camera for hire, that isn't me. If you’re drawn to artistic moments, meaningful memories, romantic couple photos, and the emotional narrative of your wonderful love story — then we should talk. I’m a very emotional person. I often cry when editing. If you mention me in a speech, I'll cry, and if you share a hug with an elderly relative, I'll be there to capture it (through misty eyes). I’m a romantic. It's not just about how the day looked, it's about how it felt to be there. It's more than just hiring a photographer; it's an investment in someone who understands your vision for the day, your love for those around you, and how to make that into art.

Movies and good photography books. Over the years, my photography and spare time have intertwined. Whilst this is my full-time job, I do all I can to invest my time in photography. Whether that's talking to wedding photographers who have been / are at the very top of the game, investing money and time in studying education courses from the very best out there or picking up a book to look at physical photos. It all helps me when capturing your day. I love the photography work of Rodney Smith, Peter Lindbergh, Helmut Newton, Douglas Kirkland, Terry O'Neill and most of all, Norman Parkinson. Film-wise, I love romantic movies. My favourite films I've watched this year are Living, Poor Things, Past Lives, Betty Blue, Where the Crawdads Sing, The Dreamers and Cold War. Most of these are recommended by couples just like you. Filling my eyes with these books and films is something that I have learned really helps me when telling a love story like yours.

We can talk as much or as little as you want in the build up to your day. The more we know each other, the easier the wedding photographs become.

Of course, let's chat about this when you're ready.
