What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
I think all candid is amazing.....but its nice to have a couple of portraits looking at the camera, with a squish of the dress, hopefully smiling! - just so its one for all the family to frame ( ie Grandma!) My portriats have laughter and emotion / movement and naturalness but people do like one when they are both looking at the camera!
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
4 blokes in a bed reading a paper, dont get asked that a lot....
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
well, an umbrella and a sense of humour.... i look to see where the breaks in the rain are and go into action station mode to get some outside stuff..... you need to embrace it and see what happens, thats one train of thought, inside portraits are fine but sometimes a bit restrictive depending on venue..... I have a fluid approach to find the right solution
