Joseph

Hi, my name is Joseph and I’m mar­ried to Jessica.

She’s a won­der­ful lit­tle Lan­cashire lass, we got mar­ried in 2007.

I’m just on the edge of being a total nerd, I just don’t have the brains to be a ded­i­cat­ed nerd.

I col­lect things. Old cam­eras, glass bot­tles (clear ones only please) and Lego.
I hate DIY but real­ly enjoy gar­den­ing and I love bon­sai trees.
I love live music but always for­get to buy the tickets.
The city excites me but I’m a coun­try boy at heart.
I like to dress smart but noth­ing beats putting on a hoody and a pair of jog­gers at the end of a long day.
Oh, and I’m a cat per­son. (see exhib­it A)

I’m a wed­ding pho­tog­ra­ph­er based in Bris­tol but I will cov­er wed­dings all over the country/world.

My job, if you can call it that, is to take pic­tures of the big moments on your wed­ding day along side the small­er moments that you might nev­er of noticed.

I’ll cov­er your day in an almost entire­ly pho­to­jour­nal­is­tic man­ner get­ting an accu­rate sto­ry. That means that I won’t be boss­ing you or your guests around. After all, it’s your day, not mine.

View me sim­ply as a guest with a posh camera.

Peo­ple often ask me what it’s like to shoot a wed­ding. I tell them it’s just as fun as they’d imag­ine. It’s reward­ing, I get to meet and inter­act with new and excit­ed peo­ple and it hap­pens that it’s one of the only things I’m good at. So, I plan on cre­at­ing these pic­tures for as long as I’m able.

Those who know me will know that I’m a ter­ri­ble sto­ry teller and per­haps don’t have heaps of self con­fi­dence, so accept­ing that I had devel­oped my own style that peo­ple recog­nised and that were will­ing to pho­to­graph their most amaz­ing day was hard for me to accept.

Now, I’m com­fort­able with every­thing I do, but you would­n’t believe how ner­vous I get until I take that first picture.

I’m a mem­ber of the WPJA. I’m an inter­na­tion­al­ly award win­ning wed­ding pho­tog­ra­ph­er and I’m a rec­om­mend­ed pho­tog­ra­ph­er for two beau­ti­ful venues in the south west.

So, I’d love to meet up for a coffee/beer with you and chat about your wedding.

Con­tact me.
