My approach to your wedding day
Your wedding photography shouldn’t dominate the day!
My natural and relaxed approach combines a documentary style of photography with storytelling. On your wedding day, I will blend in like a guest, enjoy the day as much as they do, and jump from one moment to the next, documenting all the smiles, hugs and love candidly. I will work hard to find all the little and big moments, not just during a few parts of the day but on all of them! I’m constantly on the lookout for genuine moments that happen between you or your guests to capture the full story of your day. I will document your day as it happens without interrupting or setting up moments. I’m not the type of photographer who stands at the end of the room with a big zoom lens that no one can ignore. I like to get in close, mix with the guests and catch all those fun moments that can’t be repeated; but I also know when to back off! I truly believe that when you look back at your wedding photos, you will be able to feel it as if you were there back again.
I don’t want you to miss your special day!
I always remember my cousin’s wedding, where they disappeared for ages for photos! Your time is valuable, and I won’t keep you away from your friends and family. I want you to spend your day having the best time with all your family and friends - it’s not often you get all your favourite people in the same place at the same time.
I only need 20 minutes for your couple photos, where I give you light direction and prompts to keep things fluid and natural. Of course, I'll also take care of those important family group photos to keep everyone happy and it will only take 20 minutes rather than hours!
Do you hate the idea of posing?
If you’re not a fan of posing for photos, don’t worry; you aren’t alone! I understand that not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera, and that's okay. You're probably like me, camera-shy and someone who doesn't like having their photo taken! I’m of the opinion that a wedding isn't a photoshoot, and after long months of planning, you deserve to enjoy it with your loved ones. That's why I don't whisk you away for hours and I promise you, I won’t take up too much of your time.. I only need 20 minutes to create stunning portraits of you both while you relax and bask in the joy of being married! After all, it's the first time you two get to be alone as a married couple, a time to take a deep breath and savour the moment.
There won't be any awkward posing or clichés moments. Just unique images that reflect you and your relationship. I use a gentle approach with light direction and prompts to keep things fluid and natural. Each wedding is unique, and that's exactly how I approach it. My aim is to document the genuine connection between you two in an authentic and natural way.
I also do GROUP photos. We want to keep the family happy!
I think they are very important because it’s not very often you have all those loved ones together all in one place and later after a few years you will appreciate it. This is the only time on the day that things will get a bit more posed but even then I try to keep things fun and natural. We can also do some more creative group photos with your bride and groom party if you are up for it. I always work with the couple structuring the drinks reception in order to get these captured.
I only need 20 minutes of your time to get about 12 group photos done.
great wedding photos are the unplanned ones!
