My fascination with photography came early in life. Back then I did a good line in photos of my thumb and people with their heads not in frame, but I persevered and (*I think*) improved! I thrive on capturing moments, people and things as they are, but with an artistic eye, looking for the most arresting visual aspect of them or their surroundings to create beautiful images and tell a story.

Since completing my postgraduate degree in photography I have worked primarily in wedding and music photography. My other passion is travel photography / photojournalism and I also do portraits/headshots. Promotionally I have produced images for a range of clients from musicians to architect firms.

My live music work has been featured on BBC and Guardian blogs and I’ve recently been photographing a fashion blog for Virtual Festivals on behalf of the charity Sightsavers.

Each wedding is unique and my work is tailored to the look and feel of your wedding. I offer a range of photographic ‘packages’ - from standard to deluxe - starting at affordable prices. Your photos will include a mix of wedding photojournalism photos and more traditional posed photos. I have experience photographing a variety of wedding ceremonies; including Registry office weddings, ceremonies from various religions including Christian, Muslim and Hindu, and also Civil partnerships.

Enjoy the galleries here. I look forward to hearing from you concerning whatever photographic project you have in mind, be it portraiture, fashion, features, weddings, live music and events, music promo, architectural or something completely different!

Pinterest

You may not have heard of Pinterest but it's a social network/communal blog of photos and images. I have created mood boards of weddings that I think look fantastic and the kind of images I hope to take and enjoy shooting. It also gives you more of an idea about what I like visually. See my mood boards here
