Thank You 2011 [I Owe you One…]

[audio:https://www.edpeers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/01-Perth.mp3|titles=01 Perth]

2011 was such an incredible year in so many ways. The things I have learnt, the places I’ve seen, the people I met, the things I’ve experienced. It was the year we found out Beth was pregnant and the year I decided to follow my heart, dream big, and took the plunge to do photography full time. What followed completely exceeded my expectations…

2011 took me to Costa Rica, Italy, Finland, France, Singapore and all over London and the UK to photograph weddings. Each was an amazing journey and I could never wait to photograph the next. But more than the career change and the places I’ve been, it’s been the people I’ve met along the way that made it truly special…

To all my 2011 couples and new friends; it was so good to meet you and thanks so much for allowing me to capture your special days – it was such a privilege and I wish you the most incredible futures together. God bless you.

Putting this selection of photographs together was so hard! There are probably way too many, but I just could’ve leave any of these out. For me they each tell a story and bring back such good memories. I hope you enjoy them.

Happy New Year everyone and may you have the best 2012!

Hi, I only discovered your website in December after your shoot with Joe. I love your work soooo much and it inspires me (I’m very much an aspiring photographer) 🙂 I hope you maybe have a little peek at mine 🙂 I hope to one day to become even just as half as good as you! Thank you and I look forward to seeing the photos from this year 🙂
