Real, unstaged, emotional, fun, relaxed.
Book suppliers who you can trust completely with your wedding, then forget all about the logistics on the day.
Thankfully I don't generally get asked to take specific photos. My couples leave me to get on and record their day.
Positive mental attitude, a white brolly and white wellies
I studied photography at school, art college and university, but ended up in a design career. Some friends asked me to shoot their wedding in 2003 and I quickly figured out wedding photography didn't have to involve bossing people around and taking boring group shots. When I looked for a wedding photographer of my own in 2005 I realised I could compete and took the plunge. It is now 13 years and 350+ weddings later.
