Question 1

What exactly is candid wedding photography?

Accepted Answer

It’s photography that captures your day as it actually happens, no forced smiles, no awkward posing, no pretending. It’s about documenting the real moments: the look your partner gives you when they think no one’s watching, your mum squeezing your hand before the ceremony, your mate butchering the worm on the dance floor. That’s the story.

Question 2

Will we still get group photos?

Accepted Answer

100%. I believe in capturing your people, especially the ones you’ve waited your whole life to gather in one room. We’ll keep it relaxed and quick, then let you get back to the fun while I return to documenting the good stuff happening all around.

Question 3

How do we make sure we look good in candid photos?

Accepted Answer

You don’t need to do anything. Honestly, the key to looking great in candid wedding pics is being present and connected to each other, your people, and your day. I’ll take care of the angles, light, and timing so you can be yourselves.

Question 4

We’re super awkward in front of the CAMERA. will that be a problem?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Most of my couples say the same thing. And by the end of the day? They forget the cameras are even there. Candid wedding photography is perfect for people who don’t love being photographed—it’s more about feeling than performing.

Question 5

What’s the difference between a candid style and traditional photography?

Accepted Answer

Traditional photography focuses on posed, often curated moments. Candid style wedding photography is more fluid, capturing what’s actually happening without interrupting it. It’s honest, emotional, and much more personal.

Question 6

Do you still capture the important moments, like the first kiss or speeches?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. I’m there for all the big moments and the little ones that happen in between. You’ll get the full story, just told in a way that feels true to how it unfolded.

Question 7

What if it rains or something doesn’t go to plan?

Accepted Answer

Then we roll with it, and honestly, it often makes the photos even better. Some of my favourite wedding candid shots happened in sideways rain, under umbrellas, or in total chaos. Real memories don’t care about the weather forecast.

Question 8

Can we meet you before the wedding?

Accepted Answer

Yes, please! I always offer planning calls or meetups (virtual or in-person) to get to know each other: your comfort level leads to better photos. I'd love to hear about your day, your loved ones, and what matters most to you.
