SO I COULD RAMBLE ON ABOUT HOW I GOT STARTED IN PHOTOGRAPHY AND IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW I’LL POP THAT STORY BELOW! HOWEVER, I’M THINKING YOU ARRIVED AT MY ‘ABOUT’ PAGE TO FIND OUT ABOUT EXACTLY THAT.. ABOUT ME - AS BOTH A PHOTOGRAPHER BUT MOSTLY AS THE PERSON WHO YOU WILL SPEND A GREAT DEAL OF TIME WITH ON YOUR WEDDING DAY!

THE FIRST THING TO KNOW ABOUT ME IS I WEAR MY HEART ON MY SLEEVE WITH EVERYTHING I DO.. I ADORE SAPPY LOVE STORIES AND AM A SERIOUS UGLY ‘CO-CRYER’. I INVEST EVERYTHING INTO MY COUPLES BECAUSE I WANT TO CREATE AN EXPERIENCE THAT MEANS THEY’LL BE COMFORTABLE IN FRONT OF MY CAMERA ON THEIR WEDDING DAY. I OFTEN USE GIBBERISH WORDS SUCH AS ‘CANOODLE’ AND ‘DOODAD’ AND I TALK WAAAAY TOO FAST EVEN FOR MY FAMILY SOMETIMES AND AT THE RIPE OLD AGE OF 23 I HAVE DISCOVERED I HAVE GREY HAIRS!

IF YOU WANT TO MEET UP FOR A CHAT MY FAVOURITE FOOD HAUNTS ARE MAX BRENNER (SALTED CARAMEL MILKSHAKE - YES PLEASE!), ANYWHERE THAT SERVES A GOOD MARGARITA, AMERICAN FOOD OR SUPREME PIZZA. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO LOVES WHAT THEY DO FIERCELY AND WILL BE THE ONE TO HELP PICK BUGS FROM YOUR DRESS, MAKE SURE YOUR LIPSTICK ISN’T SMUDGED AND HAVE A LAUGH WITH ON YOUR WEDDING DAY I’D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

THE
ORIGIN
STORY

I began my photographic journey at a really young age. My Dad had always dabbled in photography when he was younger and growing up I remember him having a massive dusty box that lived under the bed that was filled to the brim with vintage film gear. It smelled musty and the lenses were a bit clunky but I loved getting my hands on it, the sound the shutter made and rolling out the film to see the exposed faces he had captured from years before. I loved the idea of being able to stop time like some type of wizard - just call me Hermione Granger - and have it forever. Keeping in mind I would have been about eight years old or so but this was before you could pull out your iPhone and snap photos.. we're talking pre MySpace days even.

Fast forward to present day and I now have my own box of not so dusty Nikon gear that I use everyday to create frozen moments of stories/novels for boys and girls in love. A professional third wheel and stalker of sorts if you will just minus the creepy moustache.

I'm a photographer that will happily deliver a photo of you crying with laughter and an amazing double chin (because your best friend just told the 150 guests at your reception that when you were in grade three your Mum sent you in a full blown clown costume to school because it was dress up day.. only to find out it was the following Monday) over a photo of you looking plainly and smiling at the camera. I'm a photographer who loves when a the father of the bride lets a little tear slip or the groom has to cover his face when his forever reaches the aisle because the emotion of your wedding day should be remembered. I'm a photographer who loves the fact that sometimes the most random and unexpected pictures become the most treasured of all.
