EXPERIENCE

Whether you’re getting married, about become parents or just planning to have a fun date night couple session, the experience you have with your photographer will influence how you look at the photos later on – which is why it’s so important to find the right photographer for you.

I don’t want you to simply like your photos – I want you to smile like crazy and fall in love all over again every time you look at them.

Read about my approach to see if we’re the right fit for each other and let’s go make some memories!

 
 

01. Unposed, authentic you

The single most important thing I aim to do in my work is to document real moments, emotions and true connection.

I won’t force you into stiff, awkward poses just to get the typical photos where you look and smile straight at the camera – it’s simply not my style.

If you want real photos that show the real you, that you will look back at in 20, 30, 40 years and that will transport you back in time to remind you of a moment and a feeling, then you’re in the right place.

02. Be yourself

Connection and trust are the core of my work. I want you to have the freedom to be 1000% yourself during our session.

I want you to feel safe, seen, appreciated and loved for who and what you are, regardless of the colour of your skin, your gender, your size and any imperfections you might see in yourself. Perfection is boring anyway.

I love sessions during which couples get silly and forget all about how their makeup looks or how messy their hair is, because it means they’re letting themselves go, having fun, being in love and just enjoying the moment while being unapologetically themselves – and that’s the goal.

03. Value

It comes down to this: how much are your memories worth?

You can spend 50k+ on your wedding, but your photos of that day will be the only thing that you will have to remember it by.

But value goes beyond pricing. I care deeply about what I do, so I want to make sure my couples really care about documenting their day, and that they see the value in working with a professional photographer whose art they feel a connection to.

* Weddings are the example that always comes to mind because there’s no do-over, which is why more so than on any other occasion it’s crucial to choose the right photographer. However, I personally think this applies to any session, whether you’re documenting a milestone or the little things you cherish in your daily life.

04. Storytelling

Each couple is unique, which is why no two sessions will ever be the same.

Regardless of what we are documenting, I want to tell your story through my images. This is why I don’t like working in a studio but choose to work on location instead. I customise each session to reflect a couple’s interests and passions.

This is also why you’ll notice my style changing from one session to another as I make artistic choice to reflect the mood of the shoot.

05. Limited availability

For me, it's quality over quantity.

I put my heart and soul into everything I do and, because of that, I just can’t delegate.

I personally take care of everything from the initial communication with a couple to the countless hours I spend editing a gallery before delivering the final products.

This is why I only take on a fixed amount of weddings each year and only a few sessions each month. I’ve seen first-hand the effects of burnout and crossing that line would mean being creatively, mentally and physically drained, which I want to avoid in order to give all that I have to each of my couples, because that’s what they deserve.

 
 

I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR FROM YOU

What are your rates?

Each wedding, elopement or lifestyle session is unique, which is why I only listed the starting prices in my investment page.

You don’t deserve to be put in a box, which is why I don’t offer fixed-price packages.

What I care about the most is giving you a great experience and, in order to do that, I will customise your session to fit your needs and your vision.

How do we book?

After looking through my portfolio and reading about my approach and the information on my investment page, send me an inquiry and tell me about yourself.

I’ll be in touch so we can get to know each other and so we can talk a bit more about your wedding.

A 50% non-refundable retainer fee for date reservation is due upon signing the contract. The rest is due 1 month prior to the wedding.
