Experience
What is your most memorable wedding?
I've been lucky enough to shoot all kinds of beautiful and interesting weddings over the years, from inside boutique hotels to beaches, in several treehouses, in lovely old barns and more than once in Nan’s back garden. I couldn't possibly choose a favourite; they're all unique and special in their own ways.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Colourful, contemporary, stylish, fun and romantic.
What about your business are you most proud of?
Having so many super happy clients who have also become good friends over the years.
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Enjoy the planning process and keep sight of the fact that no matter what, you're marrying your BFF which is the best part of the whole thing.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
I love it when instead of favours couples have donated to charity in honour of someone they love and have given their guests pin badges from that charity instead.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
If at all possible I'll always strive to meet clients before they book so we can chat in person over a glass of vino and get to know each other a bit. Then once the booking is confirmed I make it clear to my clients that I'm always there for them if they need any weddingy help or advise and am more than happy to recommend other fab vendors to them. I then meet them again a few months before the big day at the venue for a look around together and a proper chat about family photos and timings so we all feel lovely and organised before the wedding day.
What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?
I always make a point of asking if my couples would like an individual photo taken with each parent present as I think one day down the road this will become a very special memory for them.
What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?
I have had a few couples who have brought their pets along to the wedding, so taking photos with their beloved animals is always rather unique and fun.
What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?
Embrace the rain! Let's make a feature of it and create some spectacular shots. Trust me! :)
Describe how you got into photography.
I did a degree in photography in Brighton in 2004 and have never looked back.
