About
“A beautiful moment in time, as two souls become one, and start on a journey of new beginnings” – This is how I feel, everytime I have the honour of documenting a wedding day.
To me, every wedding is unique, with different emotions, personalities and stories, all waiting for me for capture in visual form. This is why I love weddings and why I have dedicated my life to capturing these moments and the essence of the people in those images.
What is my style? Documentary? Reportage? Classical? Fine Art? All of the above? My style flows and changes from one wedding to the next and every wedding may require a slightly different approach from the one before. I am there to capture the very moments you will treasure for a lifetime, and if that means stepping into the shadows and watching from a distance or getting people to where they need to be in time, then it’s all part of my job.
I have been a reasurring voice to a nervous bride, lent cufflinks to a groom, even transported the couple to the reception when their wedding car broke down on a snowy roundabout. I have been time keeper, wedding coordinator, even showed bridemaids how to lace up the brides beautiful dress, all in the pursuit of the couples perfect day.
I have been capturing wedding images since 2004 and in that time have had the privilege to share my story telling with hundreds of couples, from the smallest intimate wedding with 6 people to grand weddings at venues like York Minster.
I am based in the beautiful spa town on Harrogate, North Yorkshire where I live with my wife Claire and son William but cover weddings all over the UK
A great wedding photographer isn’t just someone who can capture nice images but someone whom the couple can trust to tell their unique story, in a relaxed, friendly fashion, who can flow with whatever the day brings and lets them get on to enjoy one of the most wonderful days of their lives
Wedding photography as unique as you are.
