my
APPROACH
YOU + ME
My approach to my clients is a personal one, I want to get to know you and give you the support you need to make your day perfect! Your wedding photos should reflect all the love and laughter of your special day, whether it’s a cheeky smile or a big ol’ smooch, you can look back and remember how you felt at that exact moment and I think that’s just bloody lovely! Never forget a moment x
HOW I WORK
“We feel super awkward in front of the camera” oh don’t we all! Trust me, this is normal. However, on your wedding day I promise you it won’t be an issue, you’ll be high on adrenaline and the buzz of it all and I’ve always got some ideas to get you feeling more relaxed!
Some of my go-to prompts to get you giggling:
Practice your first dance – whether you’re doing a little sway or getting jiggy with some salsa moves, this will always put a smile on your face! Let’s throw some twirls in too, swish that dress and spin!
The nose nuzzle – its super cute and it’ll make you laugh because it looks like your other half only has one eye – my favourite response to this was one of my brides Lara telling her new hubby that he looked like Aragog from Harry Potter and affectionately saying “Aragoggggggg” at him in a mocking tone. Hilarious, I couldn’t cope haha!
Whisper your favourite breakfast cereal in your partners ear in a seductive voice – if this doesn’t get you giggling then we probably have a different sense of humour haha!

EVERY LITTLE MOMENT
Most of the day you won’t be conscious of my presence, I’ll be flitting around like a ninja trying to capture these lovely natural moments where you’re lost in eachother or laughing with friends. These always turn out to be my favourite shots!
Whether you’re going in for a cheeky kiss or sharing a private joke, I’ll be there (don’t worry I won’t be eavesdropping I promise!)
I’m going to share a secret with you.. not all natural looking moments happen organically! Certain shots take a bit of direction. I might put you in better light, make sure you’re central to a backdrop or tell you what to do with your hands. Please don’t fear this! It’s all part of making your photos the best they can be, and don’t worry, it won’t be awkward I assure you!
Consider this:
Who do you want to have around you on your wedding day? Someone who’s really quiet and hides in the corner with a long lens, or someone who becomes like an extra bridesmaid and helps you put your shoes on and chats with your guests? If you hadn’t guessed, I think of myself as the latter! I want you to feel super comfortable having me around, I’m your new friend and hype girl!

PLEASE NOTE: I AM NO LONGER TAKING ON NEW BOOKINGS FOR CHURCH CEREMONIES AS I’M MOVING AWAY FROM MORE TRADITIONAL STYLE WEDDINGS (CHURCHES WITHIN VENUE GROUNDS WILL STILL BE CONSIDERED)
