I wouldn't describe myself as a traditional wedding photographer. I don't consult 'The Handbook of Wedding Photography Cliches' beforehand. I favour a more observational, creative, documentary-style approach rather than the stiff formality of endless group shots. My eyes will be peeled for those unexpected moments that can make a day. My shots are unposed, candid, spontaneous. They are moments captured rather than created and will tell the story of your big day in a naturalistic way. You'll hardly know I'm there as I move around like an f-stop ninja clicking away like my life depends upon it. But the focus will always be on you and your guests.

On the day I'll arrive early. I may even have visited beforehand to get the lay of the land if time permitted. And I'll stay as late as you need me to. I'll be nervous; not as nervous as you two, obviously, but I know it's your special day and I want you to be happy with the shots I take. It's a big responsibility and one I take seriously.

Even after shooting more than 150 weddings, I still get butterflies in my tummy until the first click of the shutter because I want to get things right. At some point during the day I like to spend a bit of time with you both; away from the crowds, away from distractions, to give you some breathing space and to take the opportunity for some relaxed, informal shots. Or, and, if you wish we can create some beautiful fine art couple portraits that only you will have.
