Birmingham Wedding Photographer specialising in reportage, documentary style wedding photography. 

I photographed Charlotte and Chris' wedding back in October 2014 at Warwick House in Southam. It was beautiful and simplistic and the venue was perfect. Although you wouldnt have put Charlotte down as a white-wedding-dress-kinda-girl, this is exacly what she opted for at the time. Now, a couple of yours on, her undercut hair style has re-appeared and she is very much embracing a style that she feels very comfortable in - back to her punk, alternative roots. With all of this i

YOU ARE MY INSPIRATION As a photographer, wedding photography in particular puts you in good stead for pretty much any other type of photography job. I can’t think of any other commission whereby the variables change so quickly and you have to be ready. Not only ready but the expectation is to produce your best work every time. The weather, the lighting, the guests, the couples, the venue staff, the timings, the group shots, the locations - all need to be photographed in th

I photographed Wendy and Colin's Golden Wedding Anniversary on Friday (12th Feb 2016) at the gorgeous Hogarths Hotel in Solihull, Birmingham. As life quite often goes, the fortune coming to you is just round the corner, but it never shows itself until its certain that you are absolutely deserving of it. I had no preconceived ideas for photos, no idea if Wendy and Colin would be up for an outdoor photo when its (like) Antarctica outside and no idea that I would spot these pr

These winter weddings are just beautiful - dark, wet, moody and provide a totally differnt feel to summer wedding photography. Lauren and Chris were married at the gorgeous (yet totally wonky) Soulton Hall near Shrewsbury. I had a brilliant day and loved shooting for one of my faves - Darren Gair Photography. Their wedding decor was like a winter wonderland - beautiful golds and silvers amidst white twigs on the girls boquets and pop's of warm, deep orange that seemed to refl

There are two main things that come to mind when I think about wedding photography for me this year. The first is community. This year has been an incredible learning curve for me and having shot a mixture of my own, first shooting for others, second shooting and even third shooting for others, it's safe to say that my growth as a photographer has come from a community that have inspired, transformed and pushed me to work as creatively as I can; allowing me to really tune in

During our initial meeting, Lisa and Steve explained to me that they were after some really relaxed, candid photography on their wedding day and weren't too keen on any formal, posed photographs. After hearing this, I knew we'd be a good fit and I felt confident that I would be able to use my soft, documentary approach to its fullest. On the day of the wedding, I met Lisa in one of The Ardens hotel rooms, whereby I was greeted by a merry bridal party, all whizzing around with

Chrissy from the Wedding Quarter, Birmingham hosted a hugely successful Designer Open weekend, showcasing their collection of Alfred Angelo wedding dresses. Amidst the wedding talk, there was fizz, cake and ofcourse some wonderful brides to be trying on wedding dressees, some for their first time. I was in my element chatting and photographing, It was such a pleasure to capture this event and I look forward to working with Chrissy more when I finally move to our new home in t

We may have met at a fair, you may have found me online, I may have even been fortunate enough to be a recommendation. Either way, you got to the point where you dropped me and e-mail or a phone call to ask for my availability. You may have some special requests or things you aren't sure about, so you ask a few more questions. You may want something that isn't listed on my website. Which ever it is, I will always try to accommodate where I can. Because you are my invest

I get excited by all of my work. I love what I do, I'm so lucky. What makes it really nice is when a couple really 'get' what you do and enjoy the ride with you. I shot Laura and Adams Birmingham wedding with the very talented Darren Gair Photography. He blew me away with his contribution, as always. Infact, it was Adam saying 'You two are the dogs b****cks' whilst we were working on their couples portraits at The Plough and Harrow that gave that extra reassurance that it was

"We are in a digital dark age", or so the Google's vice president Vint Cerf told us in last Fridays Metro newspaper. Just think now about all the outmoded forms of storage - floppy disks, VHS, even CD's. Try to find a machine that will read these devices... scary! We all love using social media as our go to for sharing our lives - for Birthdays, our children's first steps, our achievements (not to mention our countless culinary feats) and even Wedding photos. Its the quickest

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT WEDDING PHOTOS? The morning of the wedding. Your photographer arrives at your house for prep photos. How do you feel about having your wedding photos taken? Have you discussed this with them or even thought about it yourself? Do you feel self assured? Confident? Maybe not. More like nervous and embarrassed. That is, if you are like most people. Irrelevant of looks, most people become anxious in front of a camera. The reason for this is vulnerability

On the 15th and 16th September I had the opportunity to photograph Randy Fenoli's one off visit to the UK at New Hall, Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham. The event was organised by The Wedding Bells of Four Oaks and I had the pleasure of working with Nicola from Daffodil Waves Photography, documenting his talk with both brides and other wedding industry professionals. Randy's TV programme 'Say Yes to The Dress' is huge in the States and currently airs on Sky's TLC over here. It
