Message from the team
Experience
What is your most memorable wedding?
Every wedding is memorable but there was one I shot recently on the Island of Cumbrae which was really cool. We spent well over an hour driving around the island, visiting lots of different locations, and taking tons of epic photos!
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Natural, Fun, Relaxed, Candid, Emotional
What about your business are you most proud of?
I'm proud of the fact that I started the business myself from nothing and have slowly built it up over the past couple of years.
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Build in extra time for all the different parts of your day during the planning phase. Most weddings don't run on time so build in a few 30 minute 'buffers' here and there to avoid getting stressed out if things don't go according to plan.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
Having a quiz or a crossword where all the questions relate to the couple. It's a great way of keeping guests entertained during the meal and/or the reception.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
All I need is about 20 minutes with you both to capture some great images. I might throw a few basic prompts your way but I'll more than likely ask you guys to hold hands, go for a walk and just spend some time together. I'll try to keep it fun and relaxed and I promise I'll never ask you to do anything you don't feel comfortable with.
If there's some nice light later in the evening then I may come and grab you for a quick sunset session but apart from that, I want to leave you to enjoy spending time with your guests.
I'm not a fan of cheesy, posed and awkward-looking photos. I prefer to shoot in a more relaxed way with minimal posing, using natural light as much as possible. This style of photography, I believe, creates better images and is great for anyone who may be nervous in front of the camera. I would say that my photography is 90% candid with the remaining 10% reserved for family and bridal party photos and the couple's shoot.
What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
The one photo that parents and family members want on their walls is the classic couple standing side by side, one arm around your partner's waist, looking at the camera.
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
A photo dash - I highly recommend it! It's a quick and fun way to make sure you get a photo with everyone at your wedding.
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
I always have some clear umbrellas with me or we can find a nice location inside the venue for photographs. I always have backup locations in mind in case the weather isn't great.
Describe how you got into photography.
I got my first "proper" camera a few years ago and started taking photos of my two boys and my dog, but quickly realised that trying to get them to stand still and pose for a picture was a waste of time. I found that simply letting them interact with each other naturally resulted in much better photographs. I developed a knack for catching split-second emotions with my camera (a look, a smile, or a laugh) and this approach led me to photographing weddings.
I prefer to let my couples interact with each other naturally, whilst being photographed. No cheesy posing, no hassle, no stress! I want you to relax, have fun and actually enjoy your wedding day.
