No, and the couples who try to pose are always the ones who feel most uncomfortable. I know being in front of a camera feels unnatural, even on your wedding day, and that's completely okay.I give you the loosest of prompts walk this way, hold her hand, whisper something in her ear. Within minutes you're laughing, talking, lost in each other and that's when I take the shot. The photos that make you cry are never the posed ones.If cameras really worry you, an engagement session beforehand is the best thing you can do. No wedding day pressure, no timeline just a relaxed hour getting comfortable with me and my lens before the big day arrives. Couples who do one always feel so much more at ease when it matters most.

We shoot in it and I mean that genuinely, not just as a reassuring line. Rain on your wedding day is actually considered one of the luckiest omens you can have. And honestly? Rain does something beautiful to photography. It softens the light, removes harsh shadows and gives images a moody, cinematic quality you simply can't recreate on a bright sunny day. A dramatic sky behind your first kiss as a married couple? That's a photograph worth keeping forever.Whatever the weather brings I'll always work with your venue to find covered spots, beautiful doorways, barn openings and sheltered corners that still look stunning. And if there's a window of dry weather during the day we'll make the most of it for your couple portraits.Devon weather keeps everyone on their toes but a little rain never stopped a great love story. I've never once cancelled because of weather and I never will.

Always! I want to explain exactly what that means because this matters more to me than almost anything else.The moment I leave your wedding your photos are backed up across multiple devices and locations. I never travel home with photos living in just one place. From the second your day is done those memories are protected.I also want to be honest with you about something. Your wedding photos are irreplaceable. There is no reshooting a first dance, no recreating the moment your dad saw you in your dress, no going back for the look on your partner's face when you walked down the aisle. These are once in a lifetime moments and I feel the full weight of that responsibility every single time I pick up my camera.Photography isn't just a job to me, these images mean everything. Not just to you but to me too. I pour myself into every wedding I shoot because I know that in twenty years time you'll sit down with your children and show them these photos. I want them to be everything you hoped for and more.Your memories are safe with me. I promise you that.

It's a fair question and one I'd rather you asked before booking than worried about in silence.The honest answer is that by the time we get to your wedding day, you'll already know exactly what to expect from me. Before anything is booked we'll have a proper conversation where I'll share full wedding galleries with you. Not just the highlight shots you see on my website, but the real thing. Every part of the day from getting ready to the last dance. The quiet moments, the chaotic ones, the in between ones. You'll see my editing style, how I work in different light, how I tell a story from beginning to end.My style is warm, natural and true to life. I don't heavily edit, I don't use dramatic filters and I don't make your skin look like it's been smoothed with a marble roller. What you see in my portfolio is exactly what you'll get from your wedding gallery real light, real colour, real you.If after seeing a full gallery my work genuinely doesn't resonate with you, then I'm probably not the right photographer for you and that's okay. Not every photographer is right for every couple. What matters is that you find someone whose work makes your heart skip a little when you look at it.If that someone is me, I can't wait to hear from you.

Yes! I'm fully insured with public liability insurance and I'd never shoot a wedding without it.But let me explain why this actually matters to you as a couple, because it's about more than just a piece of paper.Public liability insurance protects everyone involved on your wedding day. If anything were to go wrong, an accident, accidental damage to a venue, any unexpected incident involving my equipment you, your venue and I are all covered. Many Devon venues actually require their suppliers to hold public liability insurance before they'll allow them on site, so having it means there are no last minute complications on your wedding day.It also tells you something about the photographer you're hiring. Insurance isn't something every photographer bothers with, particularly those just starting out. Choosing a photographer who carries full cover means you're working with someone who takes their business seriously, who has thought about the what ifs and who is fully prepared for your day in every sense.Your wedding day has enough to think about without worrying whether your suppliers are properly covered. With me, that's one less thing on your list.

Yes knowing your venue before the day matters more than most couples realise. If I've already shot at your venue I'll know exactly where the light falls at different times of day, the hidden corners worth exploring and the spots that photograph beautifully. If it's somewhere new to me I'll research it thoroughly beforehand and for venues I haven't visited before I'll always go in person ahead of your wedding day. I want to arrive on your wedding day already knowing the space, already thinking about your couple portraits, already planning for the light. The last thing I want is to be figuring that out while your day is happening.

It's a really simple process and there's no pressure at any stage.Start by filling in my enquiry form just a few details about your date, your venue and what you're looking for. I'll come back to you quickly to check your date works and that I'm the right fit for your wedding.From there we'll jump on a call a proper conversation where you can ask me anything, tell me everything about your day and get a feel for whether I'm the photographer for you. No sales pitch, just an honest chat.If we both feel it's a great fit, I'll send over your contract and secure your date with a 40% deposit. From that moment your wedding day is mine and I'm fully committed to you.
