Telling the story of your wedding day
My approach
My approach to photographing weddings is pretty relaxed, I like to just go with the flow and whatever happens, I’ll be there to capture it. I will take some images with a bit of light posing and guidance so I can get some beautiful creative photos of you both. I’m friendly and chatty a bit more like a guest than just some bloke with a camera. I do encourage people to come and ask me to take their photos after all that is what i’m there for, and this makes for a more varied and interesting set of images.
Getting ready
I love these moments, which are full of excitement and nervous energy. I grab candid and sometimes intimate moments that can be easily overlooked during all the madness. These mixed with portraits, detail shots of shoes, bags, bouquets, and of course the dresses, make for a great beginning to your wedding story.
Ceremony
Obviously the most important part of your big day! I’ll keep a low profile here and will capture all the wonderful little moments that make the ceremony so emotional and amazing photos.
Group photos
These usually happen shortly after the ceremony or when arriving at the venue. I would recommend keeping these photos to a minimum or they can easily overrun the timings of the day.
Early reception & speeches
This is where I blend into the background whilst you catch up with your friends and family. I take time to get images of the surrounding location, room settings, table layouts and other details like the flowers and cake. I will also be there for the speeches, capturing the laughs and emotions that often come with this part of the day.
Couple shots
This is a great chance for you to take five and enjoy a little quality time together and make the most of the venue’s surroundings. Grab some bubbly and a couple of glasses for a nice wander around getting some lovely natural & lightly posed couple shots.
Evening reception
I love to get right in the middle of everything that’s going on in the evening do, dancing, singing, drinking. I will try to capture all the atmosphere of the night as it unfolds. These images are great fun and are fantastic way to end the story of your big day!
