Blending documentary photography with an editorial feel

My clients value images that capture their weddings as it is; they prefer people-focused imagery, layered with atmosphere, joy and they value images that will be passed on. Memories for future generations.

What to expect

Weddings have a lot of moving parts, so I like to keep things seamless. Both in how I shoot and in booking.

On the day, I arrive early and leave late.

I prioritise observation and capturing images that are full of life, energy and joy.

My approach is documentary-led but not passive; letting moments unfold. I direct when it is needed - approaching portraiture with intention.

Portrait sessions are relaxed, involve movement and subtle direction. I’m led by the light on the day and the environment.

I use film at every wedding I shoot. It’s part of my workflow and is here to stay; I love that you have 36 exposures and have to use it with precision and purpose. There’s something human about using film.

What you're left with is a gallery that looks like your day actually happened and one that will be viewed by those closest to you.

"When he took us aside for our couple's shots, it never felt staged — it was just a genuine, intimate moment, and he captured it perfectly." - Nadine + Sam
