About You

You’re not the traditional couple

Fun non-traditional wedding couple at Tullylagan House near Cookstown, Northern Ireland – groom in top hat and sunglasses entertaining guests with bride by his side.

If you’ve found your way here, chances are you’re not the kind of couple who dreams of stiff poses, endless line-ups, or a wedding gallery that looks like everyone else’s. You’re the sort of people who want your day captured as it really unfolds, the laughter, the nerves, the little glances, and the chaos that makes it uniquely yours.

You probably love the idea of…

  • Guests letting loose, not waiting around for photos.
  • Images that feel alive, not staged.
  • Wedding photos that look more like real life than a fashion shoot.
  • Photography that’s relaxed, so you can celebrate freely with your friends and family, because it’s a wedding, not a formal photo shoot.
  • Authentic and emotion storytelling over a faked perfection.

You want real memories, not staged moments

You’re the couple who care more about soaking in every moment than spending an hour being posed on a hilltop. You want photographs that reflect your personalities, your people, your energy. The kind of images you’ll look back on and say, “That was us, exactly as we were.”

Why candid works for you

If you’re drawn to candid photography, it’s probably because you know life is messy, funny, unpredictable, and beautiful, and you wouldn’t want your wedding day any other way.

My street photography-inspired approach means I’m always watching for those fleeting, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments that others might overlook.

So if you want a wedding story told with honesty, humour, and heart — one that’s unmistakably yours — you’re in the right place.

We’ll definitely get along if…

  • You love music — and think a wedding playlist says more about a couple than the table plan ever could.
  • You enjoy movies — especially old crime noir. Bonus points if you can quote from my favourite film, The Third Man.
  • You love dogs (actually, all animals… but dogs are the best wedding guests).
  • You think getting lost in cities is the best way to find their secrets (and the best pubs).
  • You appreciate the arts — from galleries to street art.
  • You secretly love puns and bad dad jokes. (Don’t worry, I’ve got plenty.)

Sound like you? Let’s talk

If you’re nodding along thinking this feels like us, then we’ll probably get on brilliantly. Your wedding deserves to be remembered for the joy, the chaos, the humour, and the heart — not just the posed bits.
