I was born in Scotland but have lived in England most of my life, and I’ve been taking pictures for as long as I can remember. I trained and worked as a primary school teacher before working in FE and eventually made my way to where I am now, using my camera to pay the bills full time.

I live in the North West of England with my wife Sally and our 3 children who are our pride and joy. We like the simple things in life. Time together, good food, (good wine), walking, talking, travelling and making memories.

Sally and I run the business together. Well, Sally runs it, I take the pictures ? We pride ourselves in looking after our clients throughout the whole process and exceeding expectations. Sally also runs our sister company Smileomatic Photobooths which won best wedding special touch (North West) at the 2018 Wedding Industry Awards. 

I’m passionate about making people happy through my photography. I’ve loved weddings ever since I started shooting them some 12 years ago, because each and every wedding I shoot is unique. Not because of the flowers, the table decorations or the venues, but because of the people involved. The characters in a story that has yet to be written. Over the years I’ve come to realise that the images that are most important to people are those which can really rekindle feelings and emotions. And this applies to all photos, not just wedding photography. It’s my own experiences in life up to this point that make me release the shutter when I do. And why what’s important to you, will also be important to me.
