I will not ask you to look at me once all day.<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

No posed group after posed group, no shot list, no hour of your wedding spent standing in a field. I photograph documentary, and the whole gallery is delivered in full — not a curated highlight reel.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The best photographs of your wedding are the ones nobody arranged.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

I shoot documentary, which means I spend the day close to what is happening and largely out of the way of it. You will get a handful of deliberate portraits and hundreds of moments you did not know were being photographed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
