I favour dramatic & romantic natural light capturing authentic moments
as the day unfolds. Capturing those imperfect and unposed moments.

I do use flash when needed during receptions, but I favour capturing
the mood of the evening - I favour candles and fairy light.

As for my editing; I don't like editing too much but if I have to describe it,
it is vibrant, keeping the soft warmth of the photograph I only try to bring
out the beautiful colours.Describe your style

Photos always look amazing when printed. Invest in an album to keep all those memories in one place that you can show them to friends and family.

Printed on Lustre matt finish photographic paper to ensure the quality will last you a lifetime. The album is a lay-flat design ensuring that no pages get bent or damaged when opened. The album is covered in a wibalin (linen based paper) with the couple’s names debossed on the front cover.
