Sometimes…I think it’s hard to find a Photographer that fits your needs & expectations. It also works like that the other way around too… how can clients fit with my/us-arty-creative-visual-types style. I guess  for me, I think it’s important that the number one thing is that we get along! Yes we will spend the whole day together, yes I will get to know all your little quirks & how ‘interesting’ you family is…& yes, you will have to trust me.

I have been considering about writing something like this. Over the years & many chats with friends/ past clients/ current clients I have thought that most people, when looking for a Photographer all they really want to do is trust that person & feel at ease.

So here’s some things that might help you get to know me/ us-arty-creative-visual-types..

HOW DO I KNOW YOUR THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR ME?

I guess you would of seen my portfolio & thought to yourself “Yeah, I kinda like that!” then we could meet over coffee (or skype). You could talk about your ideas, your first love & how you met..you might even talk about your travels & your interests or the fact that you have a very special bond with your niece or grandfather.  The more I know about you- the more I can see what is important to you. What makes up your life (with you loved one) & what your story is.

HOW DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH ON THE DAY?

I’m a visual story teller, which means I run around the place trying to not be seen most of the time. I like to find little secret moments. I’m not loud & bossy. I do very minimal directing because I like to capture the natural smiles. Those natural moments.

WHAT DO I GET FOR MY INVESTMENT?

Quite often people are surprised at how much goes into a Wedding. Firstly, I’m there to capture your day. I treat every Wedding with warmth & respect…because they deserve it. Secondly, the editing process takes TIME. Lots of time. I carefully edit the images. This may take between 3-6 weeks, depending on how busy the season. I guess ultimately, what you get is your love in images! That big special awesome fun day captured in light & colour.

WHAT IF IT RAINS ON MY DAY?

I love rain. Rain is good. Rain is atmospheric & beautiful & allows for more spontaneity. Embrace it!

I will try to update this more but hopefully this helps a little. Check out some Love Stories or feel free to ask any questions here…or meet for that coffee. xx Lucy
