My wife and I made a great team and we work together very well. We are always searching for ways to make creative, different and special images for each couple. With this in mind, at home we are always using new objects and things to use in our compositions (mirrors, prisms, lights, etc.)
In one of these crazy moments we thought that it would be great to use a powerful image in the brides preparation. We made several images at home until we had the chance to have both the bride and the image we were looking for. A furious bear showing its teeth and I created the composition around the idea.
There is no a big secret in the final result, just the attempt to include in the composition the brides mouth and the bears mouth. However, the constant searching for new things and the practice we always undertake at home allowed us to discover a memorable image for this couple. Couples look for a wedding photographer to make take great documentary images of their wedding, but also they want these images to be special and different, standing out against other weddings. This time we succeeded!

This was one of several weddings I’ve done this year at the Grand Hotel in Brighton - the hotel is a real Brighton landmark and known for its beautiful, grand staircase.
Although I consider myself a documentary wedding photographer on the whole, I do love a good portrait! And as my passion for many years was landscape and seascape photography, I lo
