Experience
What is your most memorable wedding?
Photographing the £25,000 dream wedding of Royal Marine Andy Thomas to his childhood sweetheart Karly at Castle Hill, Devon, the home of Lord and Lady Arran. In a heartwarming campaign led by one of the countries oldest aristocratic families the wedding was funded by North Devon businesses. My part was to document the day for the Sunday Express. It was a truly stunning event and , as I feel with all weddings, an absolute privilege to be part of.
