FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My most memorable wedding of recent years was one which I traveled over to Normandy in France for. I spent the weekend there in a beautiful French village. It was so lovely hanging out with the couple and their guests for a while before and after the wedding.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, relaxed, fun, genuine, timeless

What about your business are you most proud of?

I'm proud of the number of happy memories that me and my camera have captured for people over the years. The great thing about weddings is that there is so much going on as well as the wedding ceremony. Parents playing with their young kids, cousins who haven't seen each other for years, old school friends meeting up again...the list goes on.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

I'm biased, but booking a wedding photographer who you feel can capture your day in a way that suits you is such an important thing. Your wedding photos will be something that you treasure for the rest of your life.

What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?

There isn't really one photo that's more important than the others. At least not to me anyway. What's important is that your photos capture what it was like to be present on your wedding day, so that when you look at them in years to come, they take you right back to the moment.
