We all have a story to share. Here's an opportunity to introduce myself and how I work.

 

I started  full time wedding photographer just over 10 years ago now and I would by lying if I didn't say it didn't come with its challenges but these challenges turn me in to the person a am today and I feel its made me not just a better person but a better photographer and business owner.

 

 I take great pride in what I do, shoot over. 60 weddings a year on average and feel I'm constantly learning and developing all the time. 

​

Losing my nan and Grandad so suddenly had a big impact on me and I never forget how much they loved hearing me talk about my passion in photography and my goals regarding my business. Losing not just my nan and granddad but a lot of family its actually made me look at weddings differntly, not just capturing the married couple but to focus on loved ones. Creating moments that you will look back on, reflect on and treasure for ever. 

​

Doing this job (if you want to call it that) haha has shown me that every wedding I shoot is always different so with that said I created a questionnaire for my clients that will help them and me. 

​

School was very difficult for me as my dyslexia and ADHD wasn't diagnosed. I wasn't a naughty child but I didn't stay still for long and was very easily distracted. As a child I always had self doubt, felt I had no control over my life due to being diagnosed with diabetes at 10 years of age. From as far as I can remember I always wanted to go in the military but constantly being told I couldn't due to my disease and this happened a lot through my life until I picked up a film camera. 

​

noticing lots of compliments regarding photo taking I decided to do an A level in Photography. I struggled so much developing my film and getting the correct camera settings but I feel a lot of the failure and so many wrong attempts eventually made me a better photographer. after that I went to university and did a foundation degree as well as then progressing to a BA Hons in Photography as well. 

​

I think the degree has not got me any work in the wedding industry however has got me work at colleges and university's doing lectures as well as helping me with how to run a business. 

​

It's fair to say I'm a recommended wedding photographer in 5 of the best wedding venues in the uk in my opinion. This means the world to me as coordinators get to work with so many talented photographers and the fact they chose me to recommend and attend open days is just a dream come true and something I never take for granted. 

​

Im 38 years old this year and one thing I would love to be is a father one day, I enjoy shooting weddings in any scale. Family orientated weddings are great, seeing the Grooms little girl walk down the. isle and catching them kind of memories are the best. Having that documentary approach but also having the ability to make people feel relaxed and not bothered about the camera is one of my strengths I think. Just check out my reviews to be a judge of that for yourself.

​

People always ask me about my style. I would answer by sating its a very documentary approach, vibrant, Aesthetic and a touch of fine art. Focusing on Laughter, Love, memories and not forgetting a little traditional. 

​

Always look for natural light but confident with flash photography. Always shoot on Nikon z series cameras with mainly prime lenses so they are not in your face, less protrusive and produces amazing quality every time.
