Photographer & tea lover.
I am based in a small village in Buckinghamshire, close to Aylesbury and Leighton Buzzard; I live with my geeky husband and our cheeky Airedale Terrier, Colonel Mustard.
I am a very creative person and my parents call me "a collector of hobbies"; but my love for photography has certainly lasted the longest. I remember when I was about 10, for Christmas I received a Wallace and Gromit film camera; it was so cool! It even had their little rocket hanging off the wrist strap!
In my teens I would buy vintage cameras from fairs and carboot sales regardless of whether they worked or not as I just loved looking at them.
It was during the cringey MySpace era that I gained a love of portrait photography and much to my friend's annoyance I have a never ending archive of photos; those EMO years are certainly well documented.
Little things about me, let's see if we have any in common:
- I am a Scorpio.
- If someone cries then I cry; even people on TV adverts. Proper softie.
- I like to illustrate and paint to de-stress.
- Dog mad.
- Karaoke obsessed and I adore the absolute cheese fest that is Eurovision.
- My favourite place is Great Yarmouth. Bring on the arcades and Hippodrome.
- I love anything to do with the Circus and Witches.
- Favourite films are: The Grand Budapest Hotel, Serendipity, Pride and Prejudice AND the greatest film of all time... The Labyrinth.
As you have probably guessed by now, I am a fan of bright, colourful photography. I think that your photos should reflect the time and effort you lovingly put in to choosing all your decor, flowers and colour schemes; you won't find sepia tones here!
When shooting weddings I like to stick to the shadows like batman and observe from a distance, capturing those wonderful candid moments as they unfold.
I LOVE an outdoor ceremony, farm, countryside, seaside or barn wedding. Anything rustic, festival, circus, vintage or just outright quirky is right up my street!
