THERE’S A MILLION WAYS TO Laugh
AND EVERYONE’S A pATH
One of Pete’s (The Who) lighter songs quoted above. As a wedding photographer that’s pretty much 80% of my job, getting the laughs, catching the camaraderie. Every guest’s smile leads me back to the couple. I take a documentary styled approach which allows the preparation, ceremony and reception events to naturally unfold without much posing. With over 10 years experience in the wedding industry. I’m confident your day will be recorded not just professionally but with a relaxed and humbled approach.
Photography is seeing through the eyes of another
Yes. No doubt that the main story of the day (your love) is the thread that holds the event together. But woven throughout the day are the little stories of everyone else involved. From flowergirls burying their dolls in dirt outside the church. Umbrellas collapsing at the worst moments. Hats taking off like kites. Temper tantrums of anxious children. Heels getting caught in grates. Nose picking children. Tired yawning children. Thrown shapes on the dance floor. These are moments on the other side of traditional wedding photography. The story of others that give you an alternative to the wedding photography on your day.
yes to family photos
I find it equally important to not just focus on the couple but to have a good ol’ banter with the family too. It’s about making everyone feel welcomed when they pose. I’ve also no problems with photographing not just your family but friends too. I try my best to remember everyone’s names, I’m around for just one day but I like to walk away knowing that I got to know everyone that made time for me.
AUTHENTICITY MATTERS
Don’t do something that you’re not willing to do for wedding photography. If you love to kiss and cuddle in front of the camera then I’m photographing it. If you prefer to just hold hands then I’m there too. Lot’s of family photos then let’s do it. Just documentary – Absolutely! I won’t force you to be someone that you are not. My biggest reward as a wedding photographer is being told that I captured the day as the couple and guests experienced it on the day. Keeping it true to your good selves!

we’re all light
I appreciate the similarities of weddings and I respect the differences of all weddings. At Give us a goo, we embrace and welcome all. Regardless of gender identity, no matter orientation or religion or however it is that you are you. The singularity I’m looking for in every wedding is love and how it relates to those around you on the day.
