I've spent 15 year building my expertise and I now get to travel the world shooting weddings! I never dreamed I'd get to jump on a plane to do this job!
Book your wedding photographer as soon as you have your date confirmed!
Bride and groom spray painting each other! And then jumping in a fountain!
Chat, chat and more chat. I like to get to know my couples. It helps me get a feel for their style but also puts them at ease with me. We do venue visits, pre wedding shoot and then shoot the big day. After the big day I look after them, working through the images and present them on a stunning USB.
Tough because every couple is different. But for me it's that one shot of the couple totally lost in each other, unaware of everyone around them! I love getting shots like that
"Do you mind if we spray paint each other and you photograph us doing it"
Brollies and a care free attitude!
My dad was an amateur photographer. I always wanted to play with his cameras so he brought me my first camera when I was 5. I was hooked from that day!
