A short dress, a very long veil and a little look back.

Add pink platforms and heart-shaped sunglasses and you’ve got my full attention. I love a bridal look with personality, especially when there’s a whole city to take it for a wander through.

If you love the idea of a few evening portraits, this is the sort of thing I have in mind. I love shooting with flash for that glint off the glass and the way the satin catches the light.

Bring your drinks and we’ll slip away for a few minutes. We’ll find a corner with a bit of character and I’ll give you a little direction while you settle in together.

There’s something about being curled up on a sofa with your favourite person and still looking straight out of a film. 🖤

That little newlywed wander 🤍

I love an editorial portrait, but you’ll also find me watching for moments like this.

The faces around the tables. Someone catching their breath between laughs. Your favourite people completely caught up in the day.

This is the documentary side of my work, and it shapes so much of how I photograph a wedding. Knowing when to offer a little guidance and when to step back, watch and let things unfold.

While you’re enjoying yourselves, I’m paying attention to the people you’ve brought together, capturing the moments you saw and a few you might have missed.

Because you’ll want to remember them like this.

Everyone looking at the camera? Optional.
The little three-piece suits? An excellent decision.

A family wedding photo with plenty of personality 🤍

Taking the photography duties very seriously 📸

Toni told me their boys had a list of photos to collect throughout the day to keep them occupied at her & Kieran’s wedding. Two disposable cameras, a shot list and, judging by the concentration, absolutely no time for small talk.

Easily the best-dressed photographers in the room. I’d love to see their version of the day.

What bride doesn’t love a little gallivanting in her wedding dress?

Shoes off, skirt gathered, taking the scenic route through the gardens. You’ve spent months choosing the dress - you might as well enjoy every inch of it.

And if that means a little barefoot wandering, I’ll happily follow with my camera.

Something blue, with every detail considered.

Beautiful stationery by Mama Inc. Studio - soft blues, delicate lace and sweeping script. So many textures to get lost in, and such a lovely suite to photograph.

Couple portraits can feel a little daunting, but you don’t need to know what to do in front of the camera. That’s where I come in.

I’ll find the light, give you a little guidance and let you settle into being together. There’s room to chat, move around and make each other laugh - often, that’s when my favourite photographs happen.

My approach is documentary-led, with a thoughtful eye for composition and the little details. Knowing when to guide you and when to step back keeps your photographs feeling like you.

Lucy & Callum demonstrating that nicely. 🤍
