Helpful posts for planning your wedding


I’ve been photographing weddings for over a decade now, and In my time I’ve learnt what works, what doesn’t and I’ve distilled this into a series of helpful posts to help you with every aspect of your day, from finding the best wedding venues near you, to how to get the most out of working with your chosen wedding photographer. Some of them are about your mindset, others practical, and I’ll keep building on these so check back here often.

I have been mega flattered by how many of you have wanted to book me solely to create a wedding video for you and I’m really excited to say I’m fully booked for films and 2/3 booked for stills. 

I’ve still got spaces in April and then September-December but I’m fully booked May-August (unless something so impossibly awesome comes along that I couldn’t say no, or you offer me one million pounds, or you happen to be a freelance developmental book editor who’s also getting married and wants to swap services (you never know!)

Have a nose at the last slide for all the lovely things they said about working with me - my Google reviews are still a bit of a mess post profile being suspended. I appear to have two profiles, one with two reviews and one with 33. So if anyone knows how to combo them, do let me know.

It’s Album Time - not just the name of a slightl It’s Album Time - not just the name of a slightly niche LP by an electronic artist called Todd Terje that’s at least 10 years old but literally time to start thinking about wedding albums if you’d like one.

Which means now is the perfect time to work with me to design a bespoke album. 

Here’s a few shots of Catherine & Richard’s gorgeous 14 x 12 album of their Wilton’s Music Hall wedding. 

I’ll put a link to the order form in the bio.
