Experience

AN EPIC WEDDING EXPERIENCE TAILORED TO YOU - BECAUSE YOUR STORY TOGETHER IS UNIQUE
 

wedding-photographer-essex13

Choosing me to document your wedding will mean you have a guiding, creative voice, but also someone who champions everything you desire for your wedding. I don't just book you in and see you a year later for your wedding!

 

I invest time into growing a mini friendship with my couples and will keep in touch with you throughout your journey to your wedding day. The entire experience is tailored to you. We will carefully plan the details of the day in our consultation where we will also get to know each other.

​

On the day, my easy going photographic style focuses on a documentary storytelling approach with a touch of an editorial vibe. With your couple's photos, I will help you feel at ease, unforced and completely in the moment with each other. Your images and videos will reflect the fun and emotions of your day and be a detailed, true representation of your own unique love story.

ALL BOOKINGS WITH ME INCLUDE:

WEDDING CONSULTATION

We will have a detailed meeting for me to understand who and what is important to you, so I can capture all the key people and elements of your wedding.

IMAGE PREVIEWS

You will receive a collection of the stand out images from your wedding within 48 hours for you to share with your family and friends.

RIGHTS TO PRINT & SHARE

Lifetime rights to print and share your images wherever you like, no restrictions.

FULL CREATIVE EDITING

I edit each and every image in my signature style to ensure they are perfect and ready for delivery to you.

ONLINE GALLERY

A beautiful interactive downloadable online gallery, password protected for you to share with your guests.
