What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?
Bride and groom portraits ! So often Brides and Grooms have been resistant with their portraits not wanting to put much effort into but honestly these are the images you'll look back on, what your grandchildren will admire in years to come! Treat your photos like a family heirloom.. priceless
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Have a back up plan. Discuss with the venue of options for a rainy day.. if not with me then discuss with your photographer the venue ideas and back up plans to ensure you can still ahve your family photos
And don't be afraid to have your portraits in the rain!! These can be incredible creative and effective!!
Describe how you got into photography.
I went from job to job trying to work around my three girls.. always coming into issues with childcare. I left my work place after being mistreated and it was my husband who suggested I pick up a camera as I've always shown interest in photography. I started off small offering free photo sessions whilst I gained confidence and knowledge and literally watch evert you tube video under the sun!!
Covid hit just as I was finding my feet.. I took this opportunity to train myself futher and constantly used my children for models to practice skills!!
After restrictions started to lift I came back fighting and have developed the knowledge and skills I so desperately wanted to achieve! I put every ounce of passion and creativity into my work.. not just on the day but the editing also! And I truly believe I make a friend from every bride and groom!
I have now opened up a studio where I focus on family and children photography and cover weddings all year round! With my husband as my second shooter we aim to capture every moment we can of your day!
