Non-negotiable...

When we work together, there are things that are non-negotiable (& actually out of my control).

As there are many variables affect the results on a wedding, weather, lighting, backdrop, mood (or mood swings if you are one of them!), colours, energy, people (yes, some aren't worth having at your wedding!). All have a pull on your wedding day and are 100% non-negotiable once the moment has been seized.

In control...

There are things that I can control, my potty mouth being one of them - haha!

My signature style is pretty natural with a sprinkling of warmth, meaning if you are pale ginger like myself you won't look like a ghost - thank me later. Generally I like to 'dull' down greens and blues, they just don't do it for me, then what remains pops with a punch of contrast and mood. My darks are dark, my whites are white. 

When the lighting is right, if the weather is playing perfect, if there is a Northern Lights alert, I will be encouraging you to crack on.

I will pick and choose...

My ability to read the room is pretty outstanding, so I'll take things in my stride and be effective without causing (too much) mischief. I love working with animals, children and even those wild groomsmen, and don't get me started on a challenging Bridesmaid trying to run the show. I thrive my way through it all!

Of course, I will pick and choose my moments, all to often the children are best left to just be, lads are better being stupid, and that Bridesmaid is easier conned into thinking she is managing the show. 

Groups...

I keep them to a minimum and I keep them fun and informal. 
No one wants to spend 2 hours rolling through shots of guests stood in a line looking bored stiff and faking a smile. 
Most certainly, there are group shots we must capture, such as, grandparents, parents (both and either side), bridal party, immediate family. Even still, these are relaxed and swift ensuring you all enjoy the day too!

Details...

I am f*cking obsessed with details, from your stationary through to the textures of your wedding day. They are a huge part of your day, so is it important I document every little piece.

I will ask you to prepare a little details bag / box so I can get straight down to business on your wedding day! I come well prepared with my very own lovely collection of extra bits too, ribbons, stamps, and bits of stuff many wouldn't think about.

My ideal client...

A question many do ask me, and it is a very important one to answer...

My ideal clients are, outdoorsy, fun, enthusiastic, good sense of humour and uphold good morals. They appreciate quality, value good energy and are team players.
Whilst many of my clients 'hate having photographs taken' there are many that also love having their photograph taken. The thing is, because of my informal style and approach I am very much suited to those who hate being told to pose endlessly. Equally those who love alterative and eye catching photographs are keen to work with me.

My ideal clients actually boast a wide range of wonderful humans, infact it'll probably be easier to tell you what isn't for me.

NOT IDEAL - boring, indoorsy, lazy and miserable Divas - NOT FOR ME!

This is why I ALWAYS conduct an informal pre-booking meeting with all couples, it is vital we make sure we have a good connection and energy.
