A love of people and their story to tell
I love photographing people and I’d love to be there to capture your day. There is real magic in the everyday moments that make up our lives, which if captured with photographs can tell a story of the events which shape us as humans.
As a documentary photographer, my purpose is to see and record those special moments, to ‘document’ them and pass them on to you.
The most important times in our lives
I believe photographs may be the most important way to lock our memories into that moment. A way of looking back and remembering the good times we share as family and friends. A photograph is a gift more valuable than money to pass on to our children or loved ones. After all, what is the one thing we would look to save in the event of a fire?
Some days in our lives deserve moments and memories captured to be looked back upon and treasured. What day better to capture than the wedding day? The bride and groom in love and looking amazing, family members gathering to celebrate and having fun.
You make the moment, not me
A documentary photographer shoots in a journalistic way, and while I will be there capture your day from getting ready until the end of the first dance. It’s your day, your decor, your wedding dress and family, bridesmaids, best men, guests and you… the Bride and Groom. You are the ones who makes beautiful photographs, I’m just there to capture that moment and memory. I will provide images for you to keep that memory alive.
We spend only around half an hour on ‘formal’ photographs or set-up shots. You want to celebrate with your friends and family so we will just take a little time out after the ceremony to get some amazing photographs of you as a newlywed couple; I feel this is your day and you are the stars of the show. I won’t pose you heavily, just pure, natural compositions to try and capture the love you share.
A reference point for a lasting memory
The wedding photography I produce is created with integrity, honesty, and if I can help it; without any influence from me on you or your loved ones.
Being based in the midlands as a wedding photographer Birmingham is the ideal location as I can reach any part of the UK in many cases in just a couple of hours. I can photograph any destination wedding (travel and hotel expenses will be extra).
