WHO AM I?

My TL;DR life story is that I swam a lot, became a Doctor, immediately decided not to use my degree (sorry parents!), heckled a man to dance with me, then a decade later couldn’t bake decent sourdough bread so had a lockdown baby instead. 

On a more professional note, I’m a wedding, event and family photographer living on the East London/Essex border. I’m multi-award winner, ex-Fujifilm ambassador, and currently a regular judge for numerous national wedding photography competitions.

I’m proud to be the first wedding photographer to invent the wedding photography bucket list!

But outside of all that I’m a just an ordinary person who believes life is made for living and you should unreservedly do whatever makes you happy. I’m not here to sell a dream, I want to help people to see that reality is beautiful and that “you do you” is the ultimate approach to wedding planning.

That’s why I support people getting married their way, being true to themselves, and staying in the moment!

An ironically titled time-efficient list that encapsulates the very essence of my being

  • I’m an ex-Official Fujifilm X-Photographer. There’s only four of us in the whole of the UK wedding industry so don’t hunt us.
  • I was a student writer for Lomography, I shot events for them like music festivals!
  • I can run a marathon in 3 hours and 35 mins.
  • Donna Tartt wrote both my number one and number two favourite books of all time.
  • As well as gandering about as a portrait/wedding/event/music photographer, I have a PhD in Psychology, which means I can definitely read your mind.
  • I like to spend my free time wiki-ing horror film synopses because I enjoy the plot twists you only get in that genre, but I’m too chicken shit to actually watch the films. Similarly I am scared of the dark.
  • In direct conflict with my previous point, I like bats a lot.
  • My Brompton bike is called Brompt, my road bike is called Big Blue and my cargo bike is called The Bugmobile.
  • I’ll play any board game and escape from any room within an hour. Know that your money mostly funds this dirty habit.
  • In case it wasn’t obvious yet, I’m an unashamed dork with an awful combination of a dry sense of humour and a love of cringe-y puns.
  • My favourite junction is junction 16 between the M25 and M40 (because it’s like NASCAR) and my favourite stretch of motorway is junction 2-6 on the M1.
