Yes, I do shoot 'reportage' too!

Okay, I confess - I love creating images. I get huge pleasure and satisfaction when I get an idea, see it through and create a picture with my 'mark' on it.

Loads of wedding photographers just short this 'reportage' thing- snapping away at what they see and never having any involvement. Which means you're relying all day on luck. Light, expression, location - all have to line up perfectly to get the image. Yet 'posed' sometimes gets used as a dirty word in the world of wedding photography. The key is to make the shoot fun, and make it look...like it wasn't posed!

I don't like to rely on luck. That's why lots of what you see on here - my favourites -have been created - but each wedding does throw up quirky and lovely moments. And just to prove I do shoot without any involvement, here's a few grab shots from the last few weddings!
