About us

My professional career in advertising, fashion & photo reportage has taken me to all corners of the UK, working for magazines and design agencies. I have found that my instinct for capturing people off-guard is perfectly in tune with today's weddings - resulting in a modern, unique and timeless approach to your wedding - one that will give you fond memories for years to come.

How we work

I work with my partner Eva Mutter who had a career as a picture researcher for The Herald for over 9 years. Having two skilled photographers ensures a relaxed atmosphere on your special day. Our aim is to produce distinctive, relaxed, fashion-led images. Prior to your wedding we'll meet you to discuss your day, show you album samples and help you decide on a photographic timetable so that you have plenty of time to celebrate the day and enjoy the company of your guests. We do not have a 'one formula fits all' approach and we treat every wedding as the unique occasion that it is. We will take as many photographs as there are opportunities, some candid, some classic. We work calmly, quickly and unobtrusively ensuring that your day remains exactly that - yours! We love taking pictures of people and hope that our enthusiasm comes across in our pictures. Above all we will provide you with beautiful images that capture the spirit and fun of your day, that can be presented in an album for you to treasure for years to come.


The day in more detail


Eva often begins the day taking pictures of the wedding party getting ready for the big event and quietly photographs any detail that will be fondly remembered. She may capture mum attending to the buttonholes, the bride giggling with bridesmaids whilst sipping champagne to calm the nerves. I can be found photographing the guys practising a speech or having a wee dram. We cover the ceremony from as many viewpoints as possible and like to get intimate shots of the marriage vows if allowed, though this often depends on the type of ceremony; otherwise we will shoot from a distance with a longer lens. Once the ceremony is concluded and guests are mingling at the reception venue we'll ask the bride and groom to spare us some time away from the crowd to take some personal photos. We'll also organise any group shots at this time and try to do these with the minimum of fuss and the maximum speed. The rest of the day and evening will be candidly and unobtrusively covered and these are often the most interesting and enjoyable shots. We like to stay on throughout the party to capture the dancing and high jinx (dependant on package/ option chosen)
