Behind The Brand

What draws you to wedding photography?

I find myself most inspired when capturing the kind of love that sets every heart in the room alight. The kind of love that has the most undeniable chemistry, it just makes me smile. There’s something so beautiful about capturing those intimate moments that present themselves on a wedding day.

How would you describe your photography style?

A fusion of my editorial photography background and documentary photography.

What inspires you creatively?

Human connection. People watching. The art of observation. When you allow space for moments to unfold and just observe, rather than trying to overly direct moments – that’s when there’s room for the real magic to unfold.

What is it that makes an image magical?

So many things, but for me those magic images often have the most dreamy lighting and a strong sense of connection between the couple.

What advice would you give couples when selecting their wedding photographer?

Make your decision with your heart not your head. You have to live with your wedding images for years to come, so find a photographer that makes you feel something, you should have an instant connection.

Your dream location to shoot a wedding?

The South of France or Italy, I’ve shot at both before but just absolutely just love that part of the world.
