Let’s celebrate the two of you!
They say the best things come in pairs, so why not celebrate the two-man wolfpack that you are?
Whether you’re celebrating your recent engagement, or planning a surprise proposal, I’m here to document the very first YES and beyond.
If you’re on the fence - book that engagement shoot boo! It’s the ideal opportunity for me to get to know your lovely faces a little bit better and to make you oh-so comfortable in front of the camera. By the time your wedding rolls around you’ll feel right at home in front of my lens.
Without the fuss or pressure of a wedding day, a couple session is the perfect way to document the different phases of your story.
Maybe you were married smack bang in the middle of a forest but your love story started over a takeaway coffee on the city streets, or perhaps your wedding is going to be all kinds of fab, but your homebody heart loves just chilling on your couch - this is such a great way to visually encapsulate every part of your relationship.
LITTLE TIP FROM ME?
This is the gift that keeps on giving - whether for that person who already has it all, the newly engaged friends or your faves who’s been married-for-an-age. Let them memorialise their current slice of happiness forever.
Every chapter of your story deserves to be told. I know I would have loved to have visual reminders of the early dating days alongside my husband and I know I will adore having our 50th wedding anniversary captured (buckle up my love!).
It’s never too late (or too early) to start documenting your journey.
How does it work?
STEP ONE
Reach out to me via email or slide into my DM’s and tell me which part of your journey I get to capture.
STEP TWO
I send you all the info and a 50% deposit secures your date. Bob’s your aunty.
STEP THREE
We hang out like old friends, capture the epicness that is you and create the perfect time capsule!
Albums
Some of my most cherished memories as a child was flipping through the (seemingly endless) stacks of photo albums that my parents had.
Nothing says heirloom (or anniversary gift) quite as much as a beautifully printed album. Living in an age where most photos live online, there is something rather magical to holding your favourite moments, printed in your hand.
Choose between a smooth or textured linen cover in two different sizes. If you want something small and sweet I also do 15cm x 15cm photo books that comprise a collection of 24 images. These littles are perfect to stack on a bookshelf and an easy way to add to your collection of memories every year.
Let’s start a tradition I can almost guarantee you’ll fall in love with and shoot new memories with every run around the sun.
What the FAQ?
-
Yes, yes a million times yes! (This is also something I highly recommend to my Basque brides + grooms.) We can add this extra to any of my wedding packages.
-
An engagement session is an epic way for us to get to know each other and for you to get all levels of comfortable in front of the camera.
You can also use these images for your save-the-dates, wedding website or guest book - score!
-
The world is our oyster ;) I love at-home sessions, but it’s also beautiful shooting outside or somewhere that has significance for you. As soon as the session is booked we can brainstorm about the perfect location for your story.
-
Once your couple session is booked, I’ll send over some inspiration in the wardrobe department, but the biggest rule of thumb is that you should look and feel comfortable.
-
I’ll let you in on a little secret, the imperfect homes are actually my favourite, so please don’t let this deter you. Your home is uniquely yours and is part of the story that only you can tell, if there’s light and loads of love it is perfect, promise.
-
It’s all about the light! Light is at its most photo-worthy around sunrise and sunset, but don’t worry I will let you know exactly what time as soon as your date is booked.
-
The one thing we can’t control is good old mother nature, but fortunately most of her moods make for beautiful imagery. Overcast days provide wonderfully soft lighting, mist gives all of the mood and sunshine makes for lovely shadows, so with the exception of a thunderstorm and gale force winds I promise we’ll create something epic. If the weather really is terrible we’ll just reschedule at no extra charge.
-
This is not my first rodeo so I normally get everything I need in the first 20 minutes, then I shoot another 40 minutes just to see the rest of the story unfold. An hour is more than enough time to capture all the goodness.
