A former press photographer, from Britain, I moved to Texas in 2006, and I'm available for weddings in San Antonio, Austin, Houston, the Gulf Coast and destinations everywhere.

I bring you images that celebrate your beauty and all the magical moments of your wedding day. Working artfully and unobtrusively, I shoot from the heart to capture stand-alone photographs that are beautifully timeless and always at the height of style.

Voted best of weddings 2016 by The Knot. Named Top 20 wedding photographer in Texas by Bridebox. Over the last ten years, winner of over 35 International WPJA, ISPWP, and Fearless awards. Published in PDN, Popular Photography Magazine, bridal magazines including Modern Luxury Houston Brides.

Describe your "style" of wedding photography.

Truly authentic in-between moments and unobtrusiveness low-light photography sum up my vision. Defined by my love for geometry and composition in the frame without the subject being aware of the camera, I never shoot to a formula, do not direct or stage photos except for 15-20 minutes of group and couple photos, an integral part of your wedding day. Booking me, you will receive documentary, emotional and authentic images. I capture the ‘LIFE’ of your wedding day in moody monochrome and color. I love to photograph seemingly simple but complex images, all without prompting or directing you. And no clichés.

What's the typical wedding coverage package that you offer? What is the price?

I start at $4500. A typical collection includes all day coverage, second shooter, high-resolution files and albums are included at the $6000-$7000 price point.

I have a studio located off Stone Oak, San Antonio or we can Skype/FaceTime.

What are your professional degrees, credentials, affiliations? Have you taken any recent educational workshops or classes?
