"With any great story, it takes time to unfold, often in its own unique way. I like to leave any expectations behind and just focus on following the connections and emotions of a wedding day"

FAVOURITE FOOD:
A burger! whether it be Beef, Chicken or Vegan. If it's in a Brioche Bun, I'll av it!

FAVOURITE MOVIE:
Has to be "21 Grams" starring Sean Penn. It was one of the first movies that truly opened my eyes to the beauty of the cinematography and the sheer power of storytelling.

FAVOURITE ALBUM:
'The End Of History' by Irish Singer-Songwriter Fionn Regan. How he can play the guitar like that and sing at the same time is superhuman.

BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT:
For me, it has to be the time I cycled from London 2 Paris with my brothers in aid of charity. When you find something THAT hard, you learn a few things about yourself on the way.

"The interaction between people fascinates me and something I love to capture. Weddings seem to be a melting pot of emotion and having the privilege of documenting this is something I'll never take for granted."

FAVOURITE FOOD:
Pizza or pasta all day long for me please! Better still Pizza AND Pasta.

FAVOURITE MOVIE:
Ah man, this one is a tough one... I seem to change my mind depending on how I feel, but if I had to pick it would be "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". Such a lovely story.

FAVOURITE ALBUM:
For Emma by BON IVER. This album changed my life.

BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT:
Also Once upon a time in my life, the dream was to be a superstar musician. It didn't happen, but what did happen was receiving an award for "outstanding musician" at a swanky event at London BAFTA by Radio 1 DJ Edith Bowman.

UPDATE: I know it sounds cliche but becoming a Dad knocks nearly every other achievement down a few pegs!
