I have had so many beautiful weddings and engagement shoots. I couldn't possibly pick one. I do love military weddings, one of which I done recently. I love their wedding traditions. I also have an elopement coming up in Sorrento, Italy which I think is going to be pretty memorable!

I'm so proud to be an integral part of people's wedding day. I get to share the day with the couple from start to finish and I feel so lucky and especially proud that people choose me to do that. I get to see and feel all of the emotions from nerves and anticipation during bridal prep, to excitement walking down the aisle or the love and all the feels throughout the ceremony and finally the relief and pride once you are married and everything you have been waiting for has finally come together. It is such a joy!
Only invite the people you want to invite - not who you think you should.
I've seen lots of beautiful and quirky things at weddings. I love the way some of my brides remembered their loved ones by attaching lockets to their bouquets or a couple once had a surf board as their seating plan - that was very cool.
I love to meet with my couples a few times before they get married and that includes a casual meet up (with coffee or Prosecco) to discuss wedding plans and how I work on the day, a pre engagement shoot as soon as we can get that booked in and a pre wedding venue visit (this doesn't always require the couple to attend) so I am familiar with the venue before the big day.
This is SO HARD to answer - if there was only one image a couple should take then why have a photographer! There are so many glorious moments throughout the day that must be remembered.
Be open to Mother Nature. Sometimes it rains and there's not a thing we can do about it. We improvise! We can either dance in the rain (would love that) or I find an alternative location within the wedding venue/area. There is always somewhere to take beautiful images.
I've always loved photography and I've always gushed over other peoples work until I picked up a DSLR for the first time. I knew straight away that I had to be a photographer and capture beautiful couples.
