Describe your typical process with a couple.
I like to meet with couples either in person or via Skype initially to get an idea of their plans and what they're looking for in their wedding photography. I'm then on hand for any questions before the wedding. On the day I'm very unobtrusive and will capture everything naturally as well as family and couple portraits.
What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
There isn't one! Every wedding is different & every couple is different. It's what is important to you that counts.

Describe how you got into photography.
