‘I have continued to develop my modern style of wedding photography to ensure I stay ahead of the more regular wedding photographers.
Last year has seen one of the lowest years for weddings nationally and to keep business levels high during this time you need to differentiate
yourself from your competition and I do this by having, and continually developing, a very distinct style with a very high level of competency.
Every wedding, whether it is 30 or 300, Saturday or a weekday, receives the same attention to detail and I am always looking for the next ‘killer shot’.
Contemporary work requires a lot of creativity to produce something that will jump out of the page or off the wall. Essentially I am looking at the
Contemporary work requires a lot of creativity to produce something that will jump out of the page or off the wall. Essentially I am looking at the
same sort of image that would make a newspaper headline. General photography skills are not enough, it has to be dynamic and

People these days are looking for something different that compliments the modern lifestyles that couples are now demanding. No wedding is a
regular job to me and I strive at every wedding to shoot new ideas and different interpretations of poses and lighting, even if I have been there many
times before.
The critical parts to my work are the lighting, the concept and the design of the image, this is what will produce dynamic images that stand out from the rest
and allow me to produce a very different product to our competitors.
There are many photographers out there, which becomes a minefield for customers wishing to book a photographic service and the awards and qualifications of the British Institute of Professional Photographers helps photographers rise above this and show people the true quality
