A Little About Me

  1. I’m a fully qualified Primary School teacher.

  2. Currently embracing parenting - nappies, no sleep and screams, I love it. All joy, all the time.

  3. I love music and will talk most people’s ears off about it.

    Currently listening to:

    Hall & Oates

    Led Zeppelin

    Bonobo

  4. I am a big fan of Rugby Union - Six Nations is one of the best times of the year.

  5. I travel and my route into photography was through landscapes. I’ve been to New Zealand, Fiji, Thailand, Cambodia the list goes on. My goal is eventually to complete Te Araroa and document it.

6. We are the proud owner of a whippet called Morris - he’s an absolute whirlwind as most whippet owners will tell you

7. Coffee is life. I genuinely don’t know what I would do without it. I spent many of my salad days working in coffee shops, thrived of the buzz, the pace and chatting to customers always a good blast and stories to hear.

8. When with friends, we love a board game or game of cards (hearts anybody?). Currently we have discovered a love for the Dead of Winter, but always mixed in with a few classics such as Settlers of Catan and Risk.

9. Myself and a group of friends cycled from John O’ Groats to Lands End for charity and raised over £6000 for Muscular Dystrophy. A spectacular adventure and for a very important cause.

10. Partial to a couple of whiskys now and then. Standard.

  • I say this frequently to my couples. It is your day. Nobody else’s. The build up to your wedding is busy and chaotic. The day itself is 100 miles an hour and you will spend all day with your photographer. They need to be calm, flexible and able to move with the rising tides of the day. That’s me. You need laughs, someone you can be comfortable around, someone who gets on with your family, your kids, your dog. Relaxed isn’t me sitting back; it is me ensuring that the pressures of the day are my responsibility. I’ve got your backs.

  • When I capture a day, you’re both at the heart of everything I set out to achieve. The little interactions between guests, the conversation in your partner’s ear, the smiles, tears and the laughter. Your day will have its own timeline and its own unique set of moments. I’m there to capture them as they occur. I’m not one to force moments and take the joy out of it. Short prompts, kindness and empathy is how I work; just being a good human with a camera, it works wonders.

  • I love films and cinematography. I love books. Stories are how we as people have communicated for generations. A camera is a tool for doing that. Combined with an eye for composition and you’ve got what I offer. I love a good story and we all have one to tell.

“A gentle giant in the flesh, but a savage behind the lens . . . we wouldn’t have wished for any other photographer to capture our day”
