Experience
What about your business are you most proud of?
I would have to say that I'm pretty proud of the fact that I do my utmost for each couple and family that I find myself working with - if I can go the extra mile then I will! Whether that's a little extra surprise when you receive your prints, braving a nettle patch for a great angle or helping a guest down some steps, I like to treat my clients with the same thought as I would my dearest friends.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
When I first receive your enquiry, I will email you back as soon possible with some further details and probably a few questions. I'll then hopefully get to chat to you over the phone to get a little more information and hear a bit about you both and your day. I love to meet my couples in person and this is a great time to understand what you both aspire to see in your images and work out how you plan to use them. I will present you here several package options and we work together to curate it perfectly for you. After this, the deposit payment secures your booking, and the contracts are signed. We keep in touch right up until the big day whenever you have something you'd like me to know, or ask me anything (always happy to help), and I make sure I get in touch with you too! After your big day, I beaver away with your images, editing and curating your gallery, before delivering any product you have chosen. If it's possible for you to come to the office to see your images before they go live on the online gallery, it's a really special opportunity for you to share this moment privately as a couple, and select any prints or album images over a cup of tea or glass of prosecco!
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Wellies! And maybe an umbrella, but most importantly an optimistic spirit and the spirit of good time! As they say, "There's no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing"... but if it's really not an option (given that wedding attire may in itself not be the most practical with severe weather) we can find an indoors solution that works just as well.
Describe how you got into photography.
My grandfather was a passionate photographer who would set up a projector screen to show all his holiday images (back in the days of slide film) and I found myself with my own camera in hand at 9 years old. It was a 35mm film point and shoot - no zoom! - and would click at things that took my fancy, anything I found had a beautiful shape. I remember crawling on the floor of the soggy woods aged 12 with this camera to photograph the way the light hit the leaves fallen on the floor, and creating my own rough hewn wooden box frame mount - my mother despaired! But that passion and enthusiasm has never left me (and nor has the camera, although it now belongs to my little boy).
