I'm the youngest of 9 (yes nine!) siblings and I spent the first half of my life living in Kenya surrounded by my huge wonderful family. I grew up riding BMX bicycles, playing squash, birdwatching and going on Safari in the bush. It was fantastic! My mum and dad made up photo albums for us all as we were growing up and I'd often go through the 9 albums reliving the childhood of my older brothers and sisters. They were much older than me, so it was also a bit of a history lesson. It was a fantastic way to document all our childhoods and made me realise the value of taking photographs and of making and keeping prints. The beauty of those photographs is that none of them are staged. How could you pose 9 kids?? They're all unrehearsed snapshots in time that really capture the essence of the occasion. And that's how I photograph today, live, un-staged and unposed. Making beautiful memorable images is what I try to do with every single frame I capture for you. There may be a sequence of photos each intimately linked to the next or a total one off moment in time. I'll capture them all for you to remind you of your amazing day. Why photograph weddings? I started with a friends wedding and it turned out pretty well. They loved the images and have them up all over their home. Another one followed a few moths later and it was even better. I was hooked by this point. The storytelling, intimacy, emotion, reunion of friends and family, laughter, tears and dancing had me! I love the evening partying! I'm not an award winning photographer, but I've made all my couples incredibly happy by delivering them beautiful images they can look back on fondly for many years to come.
