“Many great ideas have been lost because the people who had them could not stand being laughed at.”   Do you think when Picasso people started creating his work people were like this is epic? I imagine he got met with a lot of judgement and “this is weird” at the time when realistic portraits of people were probably king. A lot of the best artists didn’t have success, or become iconic until generations later when their work was finally recognized. So why when something is new, or a bit different… or perhaps not realistic in wedding photography people take it upon themselves to discredit i ..read more

My daughter has been doing ballet competitions and the more she competes I realise how hard it’s to judge art and sometimes I think surely one child has won for them n ..read more

Going through two years of a pandemic has really made us realise the importance of capturing not just the epic mountains, but also the special people at your wedding. A pandemic makes you realise that life is so fleeting and those you love may not be around for ever. Which is why when you get married even though you may not want to do them,  family photos are actually important.

It brought t ..read more
