Of everything that affects how a wedding turns out, lighting does more heavy lifting than most people realise, more than the camera, the location or even the outfit.

Soft, directional light flatters most faces and settings, while harsh or flat light tends to work against almost everything. This is exactly why studio sessions use a controlled setup rather than leaving it to chance, and why location sessions are usually timed around the light rather than around convenience.

Two photographers can shoot the same brief and get noticeably different results, even with similar technical skill, and light is usually why.

FAQs

Some quick answers here.

Do you only shoot in London?
London is home, but weddings get covered across the UK. Travel beyond the M25 is arranged as part of the quote, so a countryside barn or a coastal registry office is no problem.

How would you describe the style?
Journalistic and unposed. A wedding gets shot the way it actually feels, not a series of stiff line-ups.
