about me

​"If I can't take my camera, I'm not going" is my mantra

and after a decade-plus of weddings across Surrey, Hampshire, Berkshire and beyond, it's held up rather well.

Let's get one thing out of the way: I'm not going to tell you I'm "capturing authentic, unscripted moments"

mostly because every photographer's website says that, and by this point it means about as much as "may contain nuts."

What I actually do is turn up, blend in, and get out of your way. I'm not hiding in a hedge with a long lens

and I'm definitely not going to spend an hour arranging your extended family into a pyramid while your dinner goes cold.

I'm just there — laughing at the best man's terrible jokes, half a step behind your nan as she "organises" everyone,

ready when your other half pulls that face mid-vow that you'll want to see again when you're both eighty.

Picking a photographer is a bigger decision than people expect,

mostly because they're the one vendor who's with you the entire day, start to finish

through the nerves, the chaos, the crying, the dancing, all of it.

So it's worth picking someone who reads the room, keeps things calm,

and doesn't become one more thing you have to manage on your own wedding day.

I'll take the pictures. You go and enjoy the party you spent a small fortune on.

Why Choose Me ?

 

Here's the thing about a wedding: it happens once, and it happens fast.

The speeches, the first dance, your uncle's questionable dance moves later on 

blink and you'll have missed half of it, because you were too busy actually living it.

That's where I come in. Instead of pulling you away for an hour of posed shots while your guests wonder where you've got to,

I stay out of the way and let the day happen. You celebrate, I handle the documenting

that's genuinely as complicated as it gets. No standing in a line waiting for your turn with the camera. No "big smile, hold it, hold it."

Just you, your people, and everything that actually happens when nobody's being told where to stand.

Cakes get eaten. Flowers wilt by Tuesday. The photos are what's left — so they're worth getting right.

If you'd rather spend your wedding living it than performing it for a camera, we'll get along fine. Don't just take my word for it

my clients say it better than I can on my  Feedback Page.

​

If you want your day to be fun and about celebrating with friends and family as much as each other,

 I’m the photographer for you.​​

Event photography

​

​​​Available for corporate events, gigs, mini festivals, local events and celebrations.

Events move fast and nobody wants a photographer getting in the way of that — so I don't.

I work around the occasion, not the other way round,

and stick to catching the moments that actually happened rather than ones that were set up for the camera.

Please contact me for details, and visit my Events Page for examples of my work.

next steps

​

​

My style might not be right for everyone, and that's fine better you know before the big day than on it.

Have a look through the wedding gallery or events page and see if it matches what you're picturing.

You can also follow along on Instagram for a more day-to-day look.

Pricing details are on the packages page, and when you're ready, drop me a message via the contact page.

Got questions first? Check the FAQ — and if it's not answered there, just ask.

Looking forward to hearing about your day.
