Behind The Lens
My passion for photography stems from the excitement of being able to capture a single, pure, moment that can be cherished forever.
I'm not into the "say cheese". I like to capture the laughs, the tears, the dancing, the drink being spilled, the the perfume being applied. I take pride in my work and I am an absolute perfectionist.
While I specialise in wedding and portraiture photography, I've had the pleasure of photographing many subjects including street, food and abstract and my versatility suits many situations.
I prefer to take photos of things that are a little less conventional, although that's not always the case.
