Photography By Lisa

My style of photography can be described as a blend of various elements that come together to create a unique and captivating visual narrative. With a focus on candid storytelling, My images capture the natural, fun, and stylish moments that unfold during a special event or occasion.

Thinking out of the box, my approach to photography is spontaneous, allowing me to capture sentimental moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. I have an eye for capturing all the details that others may not even notice, ensuring that my clients receive a comprehensive and beautiful record of their special day.

As a photographer, i pride yourself on blending into the day, being unobtrusive yet always present when needed. This allows me to provide gentle prompts for posed couple shots, ensuring that every aspect of the event is documented with love and care.

The most important thing to be a wedding photographer is to establish a strong relationship with the couple, especially the bride, since this is likely the most important day in her life. Building a great rapport is essential, as the photographer will be with the couple for around 10 hours, and any discomfort could potentially ruin their day. Additionally, the photographer should be able to capture the emotions of the event, not just take photos, and be able to tell the couple's story through the lens whilst dealing with any interruptions and incidents on the day without being fazed.

Im there for my couples, its not a photo shoot I allow the couple to lead the day and I just give a gentle hand with prompts to capture the beauty of them both and help them see their own beauty

Weddings can be chaotic and stressful, but my ability to multitask ensures that I can handle even the most challenging situations with ease. As a single mum to 3 daughters and a previous driving instructor, I am adept at managing my time and resources effectively, allowing me to capture all the important moments without missing a beat. A can handle many things with ease and this transfers to the couple to help them stay relaxed on the day.

I also bond with my couples through the months from initial contact to the wedding getting to know them so I can get the best relationship for the wedding day, this includes unlimited messages emails calls, and meet ups, if my couple is shy I encourage numerous free sessions to help get them used to being photographed, I send questionnaires before the pre wedding meet up so I get to know them as a couple with some fun questions about them and relationship then with photo prompts i use fun and laughter rather than model style poses.

Book suppliers you feel comfortable with, I become friendly with my clients by the time the wedding is here they don't see me as the photographer therefore you relax more and I can get the natural authentic smiles. Your not a number of job your my couple that I'm being trusted with the most special photos ever.

The clients message me via social media or my website, then I arrange a telephone call or meet up with all my couples, here we discuss their day in detail and what their plans are for the wedding and what photos they would like.

I then email a bespoke booking form and invoice,

this confirms everything we discussed in detail and the terms of booking

my booking fee is 25% then the balance can be spread out as a payment plan to help couples financially if needed

i have made a 44 page colour brochure on Canva that i email them explaining the next steps and wedding day helping them answer any questions they may have and help with photo lists and timeline planning.

I'm then like a P.A to them until 3 months prior to the wedding, i send a questionnaire out at 4 months to go this is to get to know the couple even more and discuss albums, other suppliers etc

when we meet for a mini shoot at 3 to 2 months to go and work on some natural poses. this can be repeated if they feel uneasy still with no charges

Then on the day it's all natural smiles and lots of laughter as by now we have a great bond and i understand my clients needs to the t.

Umbrella and wellies!

just enjoy the day! lets embrace the rain splash in puddles and create epic memories.

Being a mum, of 16 years I'm used to taking photos daily, I love capturing them when they arent aware! magical memories I call them

Family members asked me to take weddings, newborns parties etc and I just evolved into fitting it around the children

I also know what a mum and bride looks for in a wedding I know the little things mean the world as youve spent so long planning and creating them!

I don't see it as a job in photography I see me freezing the most precious day of your life with my camera.
