My first wedding; no-one forgets their first!
Relaxed, natural, fun, creative, adventurous
The kind words each of my Brides have had to say about their wedding photographs. It means the world to me to know that they have been happy with me and my work.
Get to know your suppliers. Personality is important - if you get on with them communication will be easier.

Upon enquiry, finding out what they are looking for. I like to meet in person if possible, to really get to know the couple, hear all about their plans and provide further examples of my work.
Once chosen a £250 deposit secures their date. I stay in contact throughout the lead up to keep up to date with plans and answer any questions. If having an engagement shoot I like to do this around 2 months before the wedding date, with final plans confirmed and balance paid 6 weeks prior to the big day.
I always aim to provide a sneak peek on social media within 24 hours, and final images ready within 8 weeks.
Laughing. I like happy people and want to capture the happiness of your day!
Beautiful sunset shots - stunning!
Wellies and an umbrella - dancing in the rain makes great fun images!
Photographing my children, my friends, my travels. It naturally evolved into me taking the plunge and setting up my own business.
