About Stride Photography
I’m a photographer who captures real moments across weddings, events, birthdays, portraits, and corporate work. My style is natural and relaxed—I focus on genuine and honest storytelling rather than forced poses. Whether it’s a big wedding or a small celebration, I aim to document the atmosphere, the people, and the little details that make your day unique.
I work in a calm, unobtrusive way so you can enjoy your event while I capture it as it truly happens. When direction is needed, I keep it simple and comfortable so you never feel awkward.
People choose me because I’m reliable, easy to work with, and genuinely care about getting it right. You’ll receive images that feel authentic, look timeless, and bring you back to those moments every time you see them.
Our Story
I got into photography because I’ve always been drawn to real moments, the kind that happen naturally and can’t be recreated. What started as a personal interest quickly turned into something more when I realised how powerful a single image can be in bringing people back to a feeling, a day, or a memory.
Over time, I began photographing friends, small events, and portraits, and that gradually grew into weddings and larger occasions. Each experience helped me refine my style as calm, observant, and focused on storytelling rather than staged perfection. I’ve learned how to read a room, anticipate moments, and capture them in a way that feels genuine.
What inspires me most is people and their connections, and the unique energy every event has. No two days are ever the same, and that’s what keeps me passionate about what I do.
Today, I bring that same mindset to every shoot: creating images that feel honest, timeless, and personal to you.
Our Team
I run my photography business personally, so when you book with me, you’re working directly with the person behind the camera from start to finish. That means clear communication, a consistent style, and someone who genuinely understands your vision.
For larger weddings and events, I work with a small team of trusted second photographers and assistants who share the same approach professionally, friendly, and focused on capturing real moments without disrupting the flow of your day. Everyone I work with is carefully chosen to ensure the same quality and experience throughout.
Whether it’s just a small team or me, the goal is always the same: to make you feel comfortable and deliver images that truly reflect your event.
Typical Clients
My clients are individuals, families, and businesses who value natural, high-quality photography without the stress of overly staged shots. I typically work with couples planning weddings, families celebrating birthdays and special occasions, professionals needing portraits, and companies hosting corporate events or brand-focused gatherings.
Most of my clients want someone they can trust to blend in, understand the flow of their event, and capture genuine moments as they happen. Whether it’s an intimate celebration or a large, fast-paced event, they’re looking for images that feel real, polished, and meaningful long after the day is over.
