MY STYLE

​

I’d like to think of myself (and all Making the Moment photographer) as a careful blend of the two extremes. Like the photographer, we find ourselves thriving in the unplanned, creative territories that you can’t map out. I love candidly capturing the laughter and fun of getting ready, and I love snapping away at all the little details a couple would ordinarily miss out on during the course of a day. Where I differ from the pure photographer, is that I do like to set-up some shots and I do believe in family and couple portraitures.

Like the portraiture photographer – I gravitate towards fun posing and playing pretend in front of the camera. My big difference here is that I throw away the shot-sheet, and embrace creativity. I try often to approach every day as a blank canvas, hoping to not repeat previous work. Whether it’s bringing along my Polaroid camera, or taking advantage of random elements around us, this is where I live.

So what is my style? I’d like to think of it a genre-breaking expression of free-flow photographic art. Sound to contrived? It might be – but it’s the best way I can describe my approach.

I like to have fun, come up with ideas with couples, to try new things – and to laugh a lot. I think I’ve been heavily privileged to photograph some great couples – and 90% of my photographic skill isn’t my ability to work a camera, it’s in getting people to be themselves. If it helps – peg me somewhere closer to the left of photography.

To sum up this ultra-long entry (kudos to you if you’ve read the whole thing!), choosing your photographer should be more about finding a photographer who fits your personal style. Budget is important, and their experience is a must, but you always need to find someone who can be depended upon to craft the sort of images that you most desire.
