MY APPROACH TO
Wedding Photography
I love weddings of all shapes and sizes. Not one wedding is the same, and it is my job to create something magic and personal to you! Whether you are planning a large wedding with family and friends, or a small micro wedding or elopement, there is so much more to wedding photography than the day itself.
Before the day
I shoot a limited number of weddings each year. I make sure I have the time to get to know you and support you with pre-wedding consultations, engagement shoots, be there for you all day and get your photographs back to you in a good time frame.
Before booking, if you would like to know more about me and my approach to weddings, arrange a phone or video call, or even meet for a coffee to find out more. I’d love to hear from you!
Once you have booked with me, I am availble for as much help and communication as you need in the run up to your big day. We can meet for a pre-wedding enagement shoot if you would like to add this to your package – these can be really helpful in getting to know each other and putting you at ease on the day.
On the day
My wedding photography takes a very relaxed approach, documenting your day as it flows and letting the magic happen, with very limited staging or posing. Just a beautiful story of your wedding day from start to finish. My approach is to be in amongst you and your guests in a unobtrusive and friendly way so that I can create images that are as personal as possible. I won’t interupt, just let the moments happen around me.
Of course, I also love to take you both off for a few peaceful minutes here and there when the light is beautiful and capture some shots of the two of you together. We won’t spend hours away from your guests missing all the fun but we will make the most of moments scattered through the day, working around your wedding venue finding the gorgeous light and amazing backdrops.
If you would like to see a collection of pictures from a real wedding please see my blog to give you an idea of the whole story of a wedding.
After your wedding
I aim to make your day magical and create beautiful, natural photographs for you to relive your special moments again and again. All my images are carefully hand edited with warm, timeless tones, and when you look back at your pictures I want you to be able to relive all the feelings and moments, as well as remember how beautiful your day was.
Whilst you can choose to have just the digital images, I am passionate about printing photos to be enjoyed time and again rather than being forgotten about on a computer or phone. From your private online viewing gallery you and your guests have the choice to order prints and frames and other wall art of your photographs direct to your home.
I also offer beautiful wedding album design service. I work closely with the very best album printers to create beautiful and bespoke wedding albums for you. For more information on my wedding albums, please see the link opposite.
