This weeks favorite 6 images – February 10, 2021

Starting today and just for the sheer love of the craft, a new weekly blog post, a favorite selection of six photos and what I like about them. My style is mostly as a wedding photojournalist and what I love is to capture a wedding day as authentically as possible. I want to also ‘demetricate’ myself from the slave of social media, hence why I hope to keep pushing myself forward as a creative spirit. I still have my accounts on Instagram, as I find it a great way to engage with followers. But that’s about it if I’m honest.

A boy peers through the bathroom door in a hotel room. The best pictures of children on a wedding day is when they’re not aware of the camera. This of course takes time.
