Twenty-Two in Review
Completing a review of 2022 has been amazing, to look back on the amazing weddings I have photographed and been a part of has been amazing - thank you to all of my couples, their familes and friends and everyone that has supported me.
Oxfordshire Wedding - Hayley & James
I’ve always been a fan of Caswell House - it’s a wonderful venue which feels like it was built to be photographed. Hayley and James celebrated their day in style and from the moment I got out of the car to hear the laughter from the bridal suite, I knew it was going to be a good one.
Netherlands Beach Wedding - Kiarna & Roman

Sandhole Oak Barn Wedding - Nikita & Ashley

Engagement Sessions
Getting to know my couples before the big day is something that I really love doing. Sometimes it’s a chance to talk about the fine details of their wedding and help with suggestions and discuss timings - on other occassions it’s the opportunity to calm any pre-wedding photo nerves and help get the couple settled in front of the camera.
But one thing it never turns out to be, is a waste of time.
