Message from the team
Experience
What is your most memorable wedding?
One wedding honored the bride’s grandparents, who had been married for over 60 years. During the reception, they shared their own wedding footage, and the couple recreated a photo from their grandparents’ big day.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Candid, natural, modern, creative and fun.
What about your business are you most proud of?
I’d take pride in creating a comfortable, trusting relationship with every couple I work with. Celebrating love stories and learning what makes each couple unique would keep the work fresh and meaningful.
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
It’s easy to get caught up in traditions, trends, or outside opinions, but your wedding should reflect your unique relationship and priorities. Early in the planning process, sit down together and discuss what elements are most important to you—whether it’s an amazing meal, a lively dance floor, intimate moments with family, or jaw-dropping photos.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
Creative wedding favours that reflect the couple's passions, such as mini plants for gardening enthusiasts, or personalised spice blends if they love cooking.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
Understand the couple and their vision, spark creativity and refine ideas, translate vision into actionable plans, make their day uniquely theirs, ease their stress.
What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
This is the romantic, softly-lit shot taken during the golden hour—just after sunrise or before sunset—when the lighting is warm, diffused, and magical. It captures the couple in an intimate moment, often with a stunning natural backdrop, like a glowing sky or softly lit scenery.
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
A shot of their dog carrying a sign saying, “My humans got married!” or running up the aisle. It’s heartwarming and fun.
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Invest in clear or color-coordinated umbrellas for you, your wedding party, and guests. They’ll look amazing in photos and keep everyone dry. Consider cute rain boots for outdoor shots—they’re practical and can be a fun addition to your bridal look. For outdoor ceremonies or receptions, rent a sturdy, attractive tent. Add drapery or lights for a cozy vibe.
Describe how you got into photography.
I have always been passionate about photography, ever since my early years. After graduating, I landed a job at an exclusive wedding venue that hosted events for international clients as well as weddings. It was there that my passion for photography slowly began to transform into a career driven by love for the craft. Fast forward 12 years, and here I am, with more than 1,000 weddings under my belt.
