It's been a while since I've posted on here, but about to change that :-) Click on the link below to see some of my fav images from 2023 and some from 2022 as well.

A HUGE thank you to all my couples who booked me to photograph their wedding in 2023 – I am truly grateful! :-) As I did not do a ‘best of’ last year, I have included frames from 2022 as well. To all my 2024 couples, I can't wait to meet you all soon!
2022 was a truly special year for us as a family, as my stepson Connor got married to the beautiful Claire at Lavender Farm. Keith and I could not resist capturing a few frames :-) Looking back at the photos, it reinforces the importance of capturing a moment in time that has now become a special memory. Even more significant for me, as in 2023 we suffered a huge personal loss as a family. I have found it difficult to talk about it publicly, however I am truly grateful for all the support we received. The pictures I captured are priceless. I finally printed so many photos which are now gracing the walls in my house.
I have been photographing weddings since 2010, and now, nearly fourteen years later, I cannot love my job more! Every wedding is unique, and that’s how I like to capture it – I don’t ask you to pose for me; I just blend into the background and capture your day naturally. The most interesting moments are the ones that happen in-between the action. Those are the moments that one day will become priceless.
2023 saw me go back to some of my favourite venues, including , , , , , , , , , and some venues that I visited for the first time, and absolutely loved shooting there – , , , , , , , to name but a few.
Here are 200 photos from the past couple of years – just a small selection from over 40,000 images delivered. I picked these because they resonate with me due to the humour, light, moment… Enjoy :-)
