Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Kirsty
Couples tell me that my approach to capturing photos of them and their wedding day make them feel at ease. I would not want to photograph a client's special day if they did not feel that way, which is why I offer a free, no obligation consultation prior to any paperwork being filled out. Talk to me if you have any concerns, or if you have any special requirements I need to know about in order to make your day extra special prior to securing a booking with me!

Professional, caring and takes the time to listen
Kirsty, is a lovely, friendly young woman who took the time to meet with me to discuss what we would like for our wedding. She also took the time to meet with me and my husband and the venue organisers at our chosen hotel to get a feel for it. Kirsty was friendly, professional and non intrusive throughout the whole day and evening, capturing some great moments, snapping people naturally in the environment. The quality and standard of the photos are lovely and her pricing is very hard to beat!

Five Star Photographer!
Kirsty did the most amazing photos of our big day. She is freindly, helpful, professional, and we couldnt have chosen anyone better. We discussed with her what pictures we were looking for, and she did the rest. The photos she took were so natural, you werent aware she was clicking away, and she managed to show what a fabulous happy day it was in the photos she took. We have no hesitation in recommending Kirsty, she is brilliant!

The best day of our lives
Kirsty was an amazing professional and really kind and dedicated through the whole process. She came along the ceremony rehearsal to get to know about the environment and spend the whole day of the wedding with us (having her breaks in between of course). She was there for all the important moments of the day, ready to catch great memories. We felt so comfortable with her and the photos are amazing, we highly recommend her. She also was really fast to delivery the final pictures and even before finish, she sent us a few so we could see how things was getting on and see already some of the memories of our big day. The photos came in a very cute wood box with our names wrote on it (and you can choose what you want to be printed on it). We are so thankfully to Kirsty for all the work she had done.

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

I photographed a wedding for a lovely young couple who were from two different cultures - the bride was Brazilian and the groom was British, it was amazing to see how these two families and cultures connected so well, it was a lively reception and everybody on both sides of the family joined in on the dance floor! It was an amazing experience to capture.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Candid, Artistic, Traditional, Colourful, Vibrant

What about your business are you most proud of?

I have run this business single-handedly for a year. It makes me feel like a jack-of-all-trades whilst jiggling a full-time office job, but I am most proud of my friends, family and clients for their unconditional support!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Please have a rough wedding plan in place before booking your photographer, so that you know how your photographer is going to fit best on your wedding day and has an idea on when and where to be ready to capture the all important shots.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

I did a wedding where the bride's beloved grandmother had sadly passed away 6 months before the event. As a tribute to her grandmother the bride had a charm with a miniature photo of her grandmother attached to the bouquet. It was a lovely sentiment and it really felt like she was there in spirit.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I usually meet couples in-person or over a Zoom call first prior to booking to discuss what they are looking for out of their wedding photos and contribute some ideas on how I can make their wedding day extra special notes are taken and sent to the couple after the meeting to confirm. If the couple wishes to proceed, I will draft a contract for the couple to read and sign once happy and a deposit is taken to secure the booking date. If a wedding rehearsal is required I welcome the opportunity to attend to go through anything else I need to know from the venue and couple prior to the wedding day for no extra cost. I then attend the wedding day on the agreed start time, following the wedding schedule, I get to work! after one final check with the bride and groom before finish the shoot I then retire at the agreed finish time. I begin post-production and upload images with a maxmium completion time of one month after the wedding day. During this time I will provide you with updates on how your photos are coming along with some sneak previews! Once completed I will inform the couple at the earliest when their photos are ready.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

A transparent brolly! This provides a subtle, sophisticated look to a rainy day wedding. No worries if you have left it off your checklist, I have two kinds to choose from - just ask me on the day!

Describe how you got into photography.

My photographic journey started at art school, I love live music so on the weekends I would use the skills I was taught in college to photograph live bands which landed me a part-time job as a live music and nightclub photographer. I continued this into university and channeled my interest into more creative ways taking photographs. I then obtained a BA in Photography in 2014. During that time, I developed an interest in portrait photography. I love taking photographs of people, their natural expressions and how they differ from when they know they are being photographed. I play around with natural and posed, as this juxtaposition of images can reveal the raw emotions of people.
