The photographer
Hello it’s me, Dave!
Wedding photographer, husband, Dad and lover of the outdoors, based in Nottingham.
My love of photography began back in the New Forest where I grew up, wanting to capture the beautiful woodlands I roamed around on hazy summer days. Then some friends asked me to photograph their wedding, then another and another. I loved it so much I made it my job!
Getting to spend a day with a couple on one of the best days of their lives never gets old. I usually come away feeling like I’ve made a couple of new friends and absolutely buzzing — which I think shows in how I work on the day.
The person
Outside of photography, I enjoy surfing, paddleboarding, running, cruising around on my skateboard and exploring the countryside. I love spending lots of time with my daughter, Sophie and can’t wait to introduce her to all these things.
I’m a bit of a tea geek. My current favourites are from Bird & Blend, and I have over 20 flavours (not enough, in my opinion).
Before my photographer days, I was a primary school teacher, so I come fully versed in ‘kid’ and love working with them, which is perfect for child-friendly weddings.
“The photos are just perfect. We had a fun laid back day and Dave fitted right in. No fuss, and natural photos of us and our guests. He was part of the party, which is just what you want from a photographer.”
