My Photography Style
The focus to tell your story
All you need to focus on is each other, your guests and of cause experiencing the wonderful moments throughout your wedding day!
I'll be there cameras in hand taking photos without disrupting or staging moments.
Your family and friends will share joyous moments, laughter and maybe some tears throughout the day as they enjoy your special wedding celebrations.
and those candid wedding photographs? They’ll barely know those wedding photos have been taken at all.
The amazing portraits
I don’t like to take you both away from your guests for long periods, I perfect a 10 to 20 min session for those wedding portrait moments.
This is often after the ceremony, then again at a variety of times during the day such as sunsets and night portrait opportunities.
This is a great opportunity for you both to relax and have a walk around the gardens of your venue, take a deep breath and take it all in away from your guests for a few moments.
This is where we can create some candid lovely romantic moments as you both relax with each others company.
Customer Review
“From the get go of contacting Ian to query about wedding photography.
He was so informative, giving us so much information that we didn’t even think we needed to consider.
Helping us with different ideas & giving us plenty of choices, He’s answered all my questions without hesitation and got back to me super duper quickly.
On our wedding day Ian was super, helped out with things that you wouldn’t even imagine a photographer would do when my shoes broke he was hands on to help fix them!

More about me!
I am a relaxed laid-back type of guy who loves astrology, action movies, and computer games. I have a great little family, the wife Caroline and my son Lucian are my world.
I only take on so many weddings a year, so I can service my chosen couples more personally, this often means my couples get their images back within weeks not months! giving a more exciting experience to your wedding photography memories.
I love those natural moments in our lives that unfold, this is the best photos in my opinion. But of course, I can throw in some quirky fun organised photos if requested, like a dinosaur chasing the wedding party, or the bride’s boot standing on the groom’s party heads etc.
This is why my weddings are stress-free, and laid-back and give an amazing experience for my wedding couples.

FAQs
How long have you been a Photographer?
I started as a model and after learning posing and lighting techniques I began to learn photography at the end of 2011, with my business kicking off in 2012.
This has helped me craft some amazing portraits for my couples, knowing how to help people pose and craft great lighting for couples that are not keen on having their photos taken.
How many photos are you delivering?
There is No limits here! If the moments are happening, I'm capturing them. With my all-day package, expect a minimum of 500 awesome shots.
This can be double that for longer all-day services, and all depends on how much is going off at the wedding. We will capture your story and don’t limit what we capture or edit. You will find more images handed over when having multiple shooters.
Are you a one-person show?
I'm your dedicated photographer from start to finish! So no outsourcing is done with my service. I offer customers 100% bespoke packages so if you want that extra level of coverage and creativity? Then a 2nd photographer can be added.
They will be fully qualified, insured, and a trusted second photographer. In the super unlikely event, I face an unforeseen circumstance, a broken leg, or illness, I'm part of a network of local backup pros ready to step in (with a similar style, of course!). No worries - I have you covered 100%.
Do I get some say in the editing style?
I have a style that I keep to for the most part, all images get carefully edited (think great lighting, vibrant colours, warm tones etc!).
That being said, if you have any specific retouching requests? We can chat, though extra retouching Photoshop work and any advanced editing might have a small additional cost, where as just simply lighting adjustments will be done as standard.
Do you do posed shots, or is it all about the candid stuff?
I'm all about capturing those genuine moments as they naturally unfold, but don't worry – That being said, I am happy to pose or give subtle guidance to those posed moments you want such as the formal family portraits. (group photos) or some fun quirky photos.
Copy write?
Yes, the photographer does own the rights to the copywriting, but we give all our couples usage rights so you can share wherever you like, and print them from anywhere with no restrictions.
All images come in high-resolution print-ready jpeg format, this allows you to take them anywhere to print.
