A selection of wedding favourites.

Here’s a collection of images from weddings I’ve shot over the past few years as an international and destination wedding photographer. I love that each and every wedding I attend is completely different to the rest; each one a reflection of the couple.

A couple drives away in a vintage convertible car as their wedding photographer captures the moment. The passenger, holding a bouquet, raises their arm in celebration. The car, surrounded by trees, sports the license plate V80 MOG.
A couple holding hands crosses a street towards a lush, grand hotel. Captured by a creative wedding photographer, the woman in a white dress smiles back in sunglasses, while the man in a dark suit looks ahead. A red car and another person are visible behind them.

My aim is always to provide my couples with a consistent visual story of their day, with moments and atmosphere creatively captured. My style is very much in line with a reportage/documentary ethos, with influences from art, design and cinematography. 

I like to see my work as genuine and authentic, there’s nothing overly posed or stylised. I want the frames to feel natural, and I hope that when people look through my images, they feel like they were at the wedding, even if they weren’t.

From the second I arrive at a wedding, I’m constantly looking to be creative with my work, it’s never taken for granted. For me, every single second of a wedding day is an opportunity to capture and create something unique for my couples.

A visual story of your day.

Genuine and authentic moments, creatively captured. I never plan a shot, it happens, it’s in the moment, I’m constantly observing and reacting, building a body of work that reflects and captures the atmosphere of the wedding day.

The light, the location, the people, the moments, the speeches, the laughs, the tearful moments, each and every one is unique to that day and unique to each and every couple. My job is to react and document those elements in a creative, consistent and unobtrusive way.

Genuine moments that wedding days provide can’t be staged or re-created, they just happen, and I love that I get to capture those moments. I completely immerse myself within the day, becoming more of a wedding guest than “the wedding photographer”.
