WEDDINGPHOTOGRAPHY

Throughout my time as a photographer, I’ve had the pleasure of being part of weddings both within the UK and across the world. Rather than simply take some images of your wedding, I prefer to tell a story of how your unique day unfolds.

Each and every wedding I’ve been part of, whether thats as a photographer or as just a guest, are one of a kind. My approach to capturing these truly unique moments, for the large part, I tend to stay mostly in the background and won’t be asking you as the bride and groom to “strike any poses.” Subsequently this results in less staged photos and more relaxed photography. I tend to blend in with the attendees and have a good laugh which is one of the main reasons I love my job.

So much planning goes in to making sure your day is perfect from what you’re wearing to the table centrepieces to the overall decor of the room. I al-ways make sure I take some time aside to ensure these little bits are all covered throughout the day.

The devil’s in the details

Couple Portraits

The only time I really offer any direction is during the 20-30 minutes I spend with just you and your partner getting some couple portrait shots. Commonly after the ceremony has concluded I like to give you the chance to get away from the wedding party (for the first time as husband and wife) and just have a few moments together with each other.

I’ll grab a couple of candid shots as you spend these first moments together and then look to get a couple of informal shots of the two of you. My job is to make you both feel as comfortable as possible and the more at ease you both are, the more natural the photos will be (and the more likely they will end up on the wall at home.)

Be yourself, be in love

No one likes standing in a line and being asked to smile, I know I don’t! Let’s draw out the personalities of those closest to you and create group shots that everyone loves.

Break free from tradition

Trust me

Let’s think outside the traditional box and explore together, have fun and get creative. I genuinely challenge myself at each wedding I shoot and i’m never afraid to try something different. I’m that person who will get drenched in the rain or crawl across the floor to create something truly unique for my couples.

Got any ideas you love? Just let me know.

Let’s get the party started.

I’ve always been a big believer that the last dance of the night is always better than the first!

Often some of the best and most natural shots at a wedding is when everyone has let their hair down and put their drinking boots on so I make sure that I stay to capture action on that dancefloor!

Let’s talk delivery options

Call me old fashioned . . . but I still believe that a photo isn’t actually a photo unless it’s printed. This is why each of the couples I work with I provide with a print gift. Whether that’s a framed print or a wooden keepsake box it’s just a little reminder that photos did exist outside of a social media feed.

Every couple I work with recieves a personalised Online Gallery where you can download your images and share it with family and friends. Prints can be ordered directly from this gallery if desired but there are no additional charges for downloading and printing the images yourself.

Pre wedding shootsIt’s always great to get to know each other before the wedding.

Pre wedding shoots give us the perfect opportunity to get to know each other a little better before the big day comes around. It allows you both to understand a little more about how I work and allows you to become a little more comfortable in front of the camera (if like most couples you don’t really enjoy having your photo taken!) so that when your wedding day comes around you feel completely at ease with having me around you.

Remember (... and this is a strange concept) but other than each other, your photographer is probably the person you’ll spend the most amount of time with on your day. I always encourage my couples to make sure they pick someone who can obviously deliver the images that they love but also that they like having around them. It’s such a huge part of wedding photography which is sometimes forgotten when choosing your photographer.

In terms of the pre-shoot itself, I normally advise to pick somewhere which is special to you both (maybe where you proposed), somewhere you might go walking or spent time together. I’ve shot from mountain walks in the Lake District to shooting in the local coffee shop around the corner from my couples house, it should really reflect you as a couple. The alternative is that if you have selected somewhere in the countryside to get married, some couples want to flip that on it’s head and shoot in an urban environment to get some really authentic images which will be totally different from what they’ll get from their wedding day.

The choice is all yours!

Destination WeddingsGoing International? Pack me up and take me with you...

I’d say the only thing I love as much as capturing people’s weddings is travelling to new places (oh... and my family too!) I’ve been extemely fortunate with this job that it’s allowed me to travel the world as far as Italy, Morocco and even Australia to capture the happiest day’s of peoples lives.

I get it, it’s not always economical to do so and you may well want to have someone who is based over in that country but I genuinely love the opportunity to work and shoot in new environments. Every destinaiton wedding package is completely tailored to fit in with the requirements of the coupels I work with. Got welcome drinks the night before? Got a kick ass pool party the next day? Let me know and I can cover not just the wedding day but the days around it too.

I got married abroad (at a little beach bar in Holland) and I have to admit that I enjoyed the days before and after the wedding just as much as the wedding day itself. It’s one of the only times you’ll manage to get everyone you love together abroad for a prolonged period. Take advantage, maximise the coverage and make it a trip everyone remembers.

Please do get in touch if you are planning a destination wedding and let me know all about it and I can create a package bespoke to your individual needs.
