My Portraits in Prose bespoke photo book texts offer any engaged or recently married couple the precious opportunity to pause and take stock: looking back over their relationship and reflecting on all that’s happened since the beginning of their story. Whether that reflection spans from their first date through to their point of engagement or from becoming engaged to becoming married is entirely up to them. We can adapt to suit.

The rewarding creative process is one of the best aspects of what I do. Starting from scratch with each couple, I first find out enough about them to design bespoke questions for them to answer separately and together. Depending on the final text we’re aiming for, we might decide I should contact specific nominated contributors as well so we can capture the perspectives of cherished family and friends, too. They’re often so touched to be included.

Once I’ve received everyone’s answers, I start to write, weaving certain words, phrases, and lines together so they read as one seamless whole. Usually, a couple’s words form the core of the writing, with the words of their nominated family and friends used in complementary sections, but however the text is structured, it will all sound unmistakably authentic and true to life. It’s the most personal record to create together.

So, if you would like to work with me to create a wonderful bespoke text that you can then put into whatever photo book format you like, do just get in touch. Having your stunning photos is one thing, but having text that puts them into perfect context makes all the difference. Together, we can create a keepsake of your journey and/or your day that will be treasured not only by you but for generations to come—memories captured forever.
