WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY


WARWICK | LEAMINGTON SPA | STRATFORD UPON AVON

Hello and welcome to my website ! My imagery is all about spontaneity, warmth, and sentiment. I use a reportage style of photography and I keep things light, fun, and natural.


In the months of July and August am based in Warwickshire where I grew up, but otherwise I live in Nice, France. My photography is always easy, fun, and results in imagery of people that they never imaged could be realised. The best place to explore my latest work is at my blog.

VINTAGE / CAMERA FILM STYLE WEDDING IMAGERY

film-tone colours

The unique look of my wedding photography is partly inspired by  medium format camera film. When one looks at these types of exposures, it can be as though the images are somewhere between a dream and a memory, far removed from the abrasive, hyper-realism of modern digital cameras.


The look is a timeless, subtle, and faithful way to portray all things sentimental.

No awkward posing during couple photography sessions

My experience and friendly, easy-going relationships with clients allow me to create amazing results remarkably quickly. I never force people’s behaviour to fit my vision and instead give people the space and freedom to laugh, have fun, and be themselves during photo-shoots.

 

The experience of working with me is reflected in the feel of my imagery: authentic images that resonate with real sentiment. Couple shoots can be done between 10 and 25 minutes, meaning they can be organised without being too disruptive on people’s time-tables.

Comprehensive Coverage

A photographer is usually just one of many artists that contribute to a wedding, and I’m always eager to capture the creativity of everyone involved. I rigorously and carefully apply all my expertise and attention to each part of the day – from wide angle or aerial imagery of exteriors to tight, close-ups of details and finishing touches that bring image collections to life.


This ensures image deliveries are filled with a huge variety of imagery capturing everything from many angles: faces, places, flowers, food, colours, textures, and details.


The artistic flair and creations of every supplier involved are expertly captured to create a comprehensive image collection that reflects the creativity and thought that’s gone into your day.

Customer Service

Every client is enormously valued and l listen carefully to everyone’s preferences, anxieties, and tastes to ensure I bring their creative vision to life in a way that works for them. Communication is a vital part of creating amazing wedding photography because I understand that every client’s wishes, and every event, is different.

 

I take a holistic approach to weddings, which means taking every step possible to make sure clients receive the best results. This can mean giving feedback and advice on a huge range of things to improve their day prior to the day itself; this can mean discussing a couple’s schedule, their posture, their body language, and discussing the importance of factors like music in creating an ambiance that can be reflected in wedding imagery.

A significant part of getting amazing results is ensuring couples feel relaxed, assured, and confident on the day of their wedding. A significant part of this is organisation. When clients know that I understand them, their expectations, and their preferences they will be more relaxed and they can focus on simply being in the moment. I am happy to take the time to talk with clients as much as is necessary, and often we explore images or mood-boards together so I understand the aspects of their wedding imagery that is most important to them.

 

Often couples have ‘shot lists’, or want to re-create images they’ve seen online and I love the creative challenge of re-creating existing beautiful images and the delight clients feel when it’s they see themselves in images they love.
