I’M A @twia_official FINALIST!

After 10 years of photography, over 700 couples married, countless stories and a year that has tested me in more ways than I ever expected… I came home from my wedding last night to find in my inbox an email telling me that I’m a finalist in The Wedding Industry Awards THANK YOU !! 

And honestly, I’m a little emotional writing that.

Because this isn’t an award I’ve entered myself and hoped someone would like my work. It was my couple Olivia & Daniel who  put me forward and nominated me. All of your votes got me there, YOU all have trusted me to photograph one of the most important days of your lives.

That means more to me than I can properly explain.

I think this year has taught me that sometimes you just have to keep going, even when you’re not feeling particularly confident, even when life feels hard, you are ill and even when that little voice in your head is telling you that you’re not good enough.

I’ve kept showing up.
I’ve kept creating.
I’ve kept being me.

And maybe that’s what makes this feel so special.

After 10 years, I don’t want to be anyone else’s version of a wedding photographer. I just want to be me documenting your day honestly, naturally and with all the laughter, chaos, colour, tears and wonderfully imperfect moments that make it yours.

So to every couple who has trusted me, supported me, recommended me, shared my work and especially those who took the time to vote…

THANK YOU.

I’m incredibly proud to be a The Wedding Industry Awards 2026.

Whatever happens next, this one is going to mean a lot to me!!
