There is something about film that helps you step outside of the curation of a moment into its spontaneity. A digital image can be taken, revised and tweaked but film gives us the rare opportunity to truly step back into a moment as it actually happened.

As I capture your vows, your portraits, your real lived moments I have the immense privilege of slipping in and out of your world, so intricately and deeply woven throughout your lifetimes. To see relationships formed through the decades and experiences and brought together in a flower laden, sun drenched afternoon, a moody candlelit feast or a moment stolen away to sit and breathe in your day. I’m able to see the depth in the moments behind your moments and gift that back to you in your galleries. 

I am always so enamoured with couples that steer away from trends that exist outside of their realms of experience and lean into their own loves and proclivities. 

I have always been an artist and have had the immense pleasure of allowing each art form to feed into the next. This artform has resonated the deepest and for the longest as it brings together two of my very great loves - creative process and people. As much as I love the process of capturing your day, curating your galleries and all that is involved in this work, I love people more. The depth and nuance of each person is the driving force behind the beauty I capture and the reason I will die on the hill is that the more “you” your wedding is, the more deeply beautiful it can be. 

In the words of Martin Scorsese "The most personal is most creative,” and while we don’t aim for creativity in and of itself it is absolutely a delicious overflow of you leaning into who you are as people in the planning and living of your wedding day.

The most consistent two threads I have seen through couples and days that encapsulate this is an openness to the day (how it will unfold, how it will feel) and a deep realisation of who they are (and a fearlessness to express it).The incredible role I get to then fill on your day is then observing and guiding you within that!!So when I say I can’t wait to hear more about your day, I truly truly mean it.
