How I work
I am a big believer in Your Day, Your Way. As you can see from my own wedding, pictured here, I believe your wedding should be unique and completely authentic to you. You can bend the rules or follow them closely. It is completely up to you; my job is to capture your day in a way that reflects who you are.
My photographic style, much like my life in general, is all about being bold, creative and full of colour, filled with authentic emotion and real moments.
What can you expect from me on the day? I come prepared for anything, and I like to keep the day calm, smooth and fun. If you need a moment to breathe, I will give you space. If you need a drink, I will make sure one appears. I am there to support you so you can relax and enjoy every part of your day with all of your special people.
