Planning a wedding involves a substantial investment and a part of that is your photography and video. Your investment in me and my creative process is one the will provide you with tangible memories that you will be able to treasure and reminisce on for a lifetime. Here is my process from first contact through to your wedding day and delivery of your memories after.
It all starts with a friendly hello! If you like my work, reach out and we can arrange a chat so we can get to know each other a little better. I want to hear all about you, how you met, your vision for the day, and what you’re hoping for in your wedding photos. My photography tells the story of your wedding day in a natural and creative way. My style is to document your day in an unobtrusive way because it’s all about you and I’m only there to capture your love and all the joy and emotion of your wedding day.
If we’re a good fit (yay!), I’ll send over a a quote for you to accept. Once that’s taken care of, your date is officially booked in my calendar!
We’ll stay in touch in the months leading up to the wedding. We can arrange a time for you to pop into my studio to discuss your day and get to know one another better. I love seeing the ideas that you have for your photography and hear about any special traditions or moments you want captured.
I love to offer pre-wedding photoshoots. These are fun, relaxed shoots where we can get to know each other better and you can get comfortable in front of the camera, before the big day. Plus, you’ll get gorgeous photos to use for invites, your wedding website, or just to celebrate this exciting chapter.
Discussing the finer details. As we approach you wedding, around 8-12 weeks before the day, I’ll send you a wedding questionnaire to learn more about the schedule, locations, family and the bridal party. You can add in any special photos or specific locations that you’d like photos. This allows me to create a photography timeline that fits seamlessly into your day, so your day just flows naturally.
At this point it’s great to meet and chat through the timings and the key moments of your day. I’ll schedule in time for any family photos you would like along with time for your natural couple photos at the venue’s different locations.
Your big day’s finally arrived, all the planning and hard work is done, so relax and enjoy it! Make sure you take time to slow down, allowing you to cherish each moment. There is so much to joy and emotion on your wedding day and it goes fast so make those beautiful memories together.
From the quiet, emotional getting-ready moments to the dance floor action at the end of the night, I’ll be there capturing your love story in a natural and documentary style. I’ll gently guide you during portraits but also hang back to catch those real, unposed moments that mean so much later. My goal? To help you feel relaxed, present, and able to enjoy every second. Because as you enjoy your day, that’s when the magic happens.
As the light begins to drop and the sun sets, these are the moments when I love to capture those beautiful and dreamy Twilight photos. They are often some of my couples’s favourite photos of their day when you are both bursting with joy and love for one another.
The dreamy backdrop of Twilight brings out the intimacy and tenderness between you as a married couple, allowing me to frame shots that feel timeless and deeply emotional. These moments are where the real magic happens; so as the light drops, the sun sets and the lanterns glow, I can create some special memories for you to cherish for a lifetime.

Post wedding magic, within a few days, I’ll send you a sneak peek gallery, so you can relive some highlights of your day. Then the real editing magic begins! I carefully go through every image, selecting the very best and editing them in my signature style. Providing you with timeless, elegant, true to life colours from your day. This process usually takes about 3-4 weeks.
As the excitement builds and your gallery goes live, it’s time for you to take a moment together, with a glass of bubbly and reminisce on the most perfect day of your life, enjoying all the the wonderful memories, seen and unseen. Soon after I’ll send you details on creating your wedding album allowing you to choose photos and customise the colours and design to you liking.
Staying in touch. Even after your photos are delivered, I love staying in touch! Many couples come back for anniversary, maternity, or family photoshoots later on, it’s such an honour to continue telling your story.
So that’s the journey, from first hello to the final album in your hands. I believe your wedding photography should be as stress-free, fun, and meaningful as your day itself. I’m not just here to take photos, I’m here to make the process easy, support you through every step, and give you memories that will last a lifetime. I can’t wait to be part of your story, so if you think we’d be a good fit, let’s have a chat.
