I'd like to call myself a polite paparazzi – a photographer who isn't there to just snap a picture to tick a box but rather to document a moment as it unfolds with respect to everyone involved. I've been behind the lens for many intimate ceremonies, where I had to discreetly wipe away my on tears. Let's just say I've become quite the expert at hiding my emotional outbursts behind the camera!

I tend to hire extra equipment for specific wedding requests, but it is not necessary if you wish to keep costs low.

I have experience working for a professional photography agency overseas, specialising in big corporate events, fashion, and weddings.
