Nervous about being in front of the lens?

You are in good company! Almost every couple I photograph tells me they hate having their picture taken. My natural, relaxed documentary style means you can forget about the camera completely. If you want a fun, low-pressure trial run, ask about adding a 1-Hour ‘Warm-Up’ session for £140 at the York Museum Gardens.
