Forget the camera. Live your wedding. Tired of awkward posing? I’m a fly-on-the-wall filmmaker & photographer for couples who want real, unscripted magic without the photoshoot feel.
If you’re looking for someone to direct your day or make you pose for hours, I’m probably not the right fit. I believe the best moments happen when you forget I’m even there. I specialize in a documentary, 'fly-on-the-wall' style that captures the quiet tears, the chaotic laughs, and the genuine energy of your celebration.

Message from the team

Name of Wedding Contact: Richard
Hi, I’m Richard. If you’re a bit camera-shy and hate the idea of being 'directed' all day, you’re in the right place. I’m a documentary filmmaker and photographer who doesn't always stay on the sidelines. My goal is to capture the quiet tears, the loud laughs, and the raw energy of your day while you stay completely present. No awkward posing—just the real, unscripted magic of your day. Let’s keep it real. Let’s keep it you.

Photographing a newly wed couple on a beach in Bonaire, when I worked on the Cruise ships!

What about your business are you most proud of?

The fact that I get to spend time capturing one of the happiest days of people's lives, and being a part of it too.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Don't rule out a Videographer! It's one of the top regrets of couples not having one, but sadly usually the first thing to be cut.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

We meet, we chat, you ask, I listen, we arrange, I attend, you marry, you don't worry, I work, you get amazing, gorgeous photos or videos.

What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?

I wouldn't necessarily limit it to ONE. But if I had to pick it would be a big group shot with everyone from the day.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Always have a plan B at your chosen venue; either under a marquee or indoors.

Describe how you got into photography.

My father did photography and my grandfather used to develop his own 35mm film. Could say it's in my blood!
