What is your most memorable wedding?
Wedding of Casey and George. I had a pleasure of taking pictures of the most unique and funny couple ever. George being a UCF fighter and Casey a school teacher added a lots of magic to my portfolio and fact that their wedding took place in fantastic venue De Vere Estate in Horsley, which hosted many film productions like Alice Through the Looking Glass, series 2 of The Crown, Call The Midwife and many others only enhanced my own experience as photographer.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Start planning your wedding at least few months ahead including booking your photographer in advance. That will prevent any potential errors and allows your wedding suppliers to create the perfect experience for you.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
After being contacted by my clients, I send off all information necessary to complete booking process: total price, contract, info I need to prepare. After deposit is paid and contract signed I usually meet with my couple either in person or via Zoom if requested. Every wedding is as unique as the people who are getting married but usual process is taking picture of bride or/and groom dressing, guests arrival, ceremony, little session ONLY with my couple, drinks, wedding breakfast, speeches, mingling among the guests, cake cutting and up to the first dance or even longer if required.
What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?
First kiss is usually the most desirable moment every wedding photo album should cover. Having said that everyone is unique and has personal preferences. Its always good to ask which photo would be the most precious for them.
