What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Plan well ahead it takes all the pressure off, an example is we take bookings up to 4 years in advance.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
Having great entertainment at the reception some of the best weddings we seen have singers, magicians and photo booths this keeps everyone entertained and keeps the party going long into the night with everyone having a great time.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
After booking we keep in touch planning in a meeting either at our studio or the venue 4/6 weeks before the wedding we talk through the wedding and plan out the photography we then do a test shoot to provide poses and to alleviate and nerves. We always do a venue visit prior to a wedding to plan everything for the day. Every wedding and couple are different so we Taylor our planning to meet a couples requirements.
What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
It’s probably not the favourite from every album but a great group shot of everyone attending is a must as it’s a good one to look back on over the years and remember who was there.
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
A photo on the beach in Sunderland with the bridal party behind holding coloured smoke flares
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Embrace it, in England it’s going to happen we always always have a plan B for every photo that’s outside. We always carry umbrellas and a photo poking fun at the weather is a great way of remembering yes it rained but it didn’t matter, lastly prepare from a dash outside at the last minute when there’s a break in the weather to get some photos
Describe how you got into photography.
I bought a camera as a hobby fell in love and quickly started buy more and more expensive gear I then put in for my advanced diploma and shortly after qualifying got asked to do a friends wedding and it snowballed from there.
