What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Have a schedule but don't be a slave to it - weddings are happy and relaxed - things might not always go to plan but it will be fine on the day !
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
There are many but rings delivered by owls had a WOW factor !
Describe your typical process with a couple.
We meet initially to get to know each other. If booking is confirmed (£50 deposit only)then contracts are exchanged. We then meet for a pre wedding shoot (if Options 1 and 2 selected) at a location to suit the couple. After that I meet with the couple about a month before to confirm timings, numbers, group shots etc and then onto the day !
What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
The First Kiss !
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
The couple paddling in the sea holding surfboards !
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Don't stress and worry about it - it is the UK after all. Check with the venue for suitable alternative indoor locations but bring golf brollies because we can generally do something outside - some of the most dramatic photos can be taken in rain !
Describe how you got into photography.
Always had an interest as a child which grew and I have been lucky to be able to have carried on this interest professionally
