What to expect

Send a short note with the date, the place, and what the day is. A few lines is plenty; if some details aren't settled yet, that's fine.

I read every message myself and reply personally, and I'll tell you whether I'm free.

We talk it through on a short call, or by email if you'd rather: the schedule, the people who matter most, the moments you can't miss, and anything you'd prefer I didn't photograph.

For a surprise proposal we pick the spot and the timing; for a milestone birthday we go through who's coming and the moments that matter. Events get their quote here, clearly set out, with any travel included.

When you're ready to book, a retainer holds your date. Once it's paid, the date is set aside for you.

I don't line people up or ask for smiles; I watch for what actually happens.

When a little direction helps, it's quick and calm, and it puts you back into your day rather than pulling you out of it. You don't need to manage me.

Your edited photographs arrive in an online gallery, usually within one to three weeks.

Every image you receive is carefully edited: a considered set, not every frame. Download them, share them with family and friends, and print the ones you love. Your license, explained on each service page, covers how you can use them.
