Welcome to my Website

I've been a Wedding Photographer for 15 years now. What makes me different to other Photographers? Well, it's the way I approach a wedding, having fun with the guests and producing stunning images the way the Bride and Groom want, capturing the essence of the day.

Every album I produce for my clients is designed uniquely from anyone elses. This is due to my Graphic Design training which gives me an edge over other Photographers.

How to Choose the Right Photographer for you

Firstly, you and your Photographer must have a good working relationship so that you and he or she will get the best out of your wedding day. There has been a surge of new photographers coming through lately, some good, but many not so good. I am hearing more and more horror stories of wedding photographers who have ruined weddings by their pure lack of ability and knowledge of what they are doing. Many of these people are dramatically undercutting the Qualified Professional Photographer by offering what looks like a great deal for a much cheaper price. Many of these people have full time jobs and are are photographing weddings for extra money on a weekend. They are not qualified or trained as we are.

So My advice to you is always choose a QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER. I am a QUALIFIED MEMBER of the MASTER PHOTOGRAPHER'S ASSOCIATION (see the MPA logo on this page). Steer clear of those who offer you the world for a very cheap price. After all YOU ONLY GET ONE CHANCE TO PHOTOGRAPH A WEDDING. So choose wisely and choose an MPA MASTER PHOTOGRAPHER for peace of mind in the knowledge that your wedding photography is in the hands of a true professional who will deliver you wonderfull wedding photographs. I hope this goes some way in helping you choose the right Photographer for you. My aim is to make sure you both enjoy your Wedding Day. See my testimonial page to see what people say about the way I work. There was no torture, blackmail or money changing hands used to get my previous Brides and Grooms to talk about me in this way.

I hope you enjoy looking at my wedding and portrait images as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Thank you
