a little introduction
LETS GET FAMILIAR
Being able to meet someone properly through a paragraph on their website is nearly impossible - but not entirely I hope. Much like being able to capture one’s personality through a profile picture on their social media. I desperately want you to not judge me through mine but at the same time maybe we don’t have the time for more right now…
I absolutely would love you to be reading this thinking oh wow now I really want to know more about Teri. I hope my photography style speaks to you and show’s you the passion I have for design and creativity. I really hope you can get a feel for how excited I get about light, shadows and textures. But mostly I want you to know the empathy I have for wanting everyone to be happy. Does this come across on my ‘about me’ page? Maybe it does a bit but hey lets chat more, lets connect in person or via zoom so we can have a two way conversation…
I’d love that. x
TERI WAS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. SHE IS KIND, CARING and PAYS EXCELLENT ATTENTION to detail.
— Daniel, 2022 groom
meet the team
Teri & Paul are a real-life couple. Having known each other for over 30 years, their 'in-sync' way of working together equals no other. On smaller UK weddings, it will often just be Teri shooting solo, but they work seamlessly as a duo for very large or destination weddings. An associate photographer can be added to any bespoke collection if you'd like a larger team.
MEET Teri
Photographer, artist, mother to humans & cats, occasional macrame maker...
I spent over 20 years as an art director in fashion photography & retail & I still draw on the experience I gained when coordinating & planning my photoshoots. Except now I get to create beautiful, heartfelt imagery for real people in real life situations. I'm married to my wonderful husband Paul who teaches photography at degree level & we share two incredible teenage boys & two 'extremely fluffy' teenage boy cats.
We're all time travellers
MEET PAUL
Photographer, university lecturer, carrier of heavy things & a great Dad too...
OCCASIONAL TIME TRAVELLER
Paul's extensive experience in photography has led him to the lofty position of senior lecturer in photography at Sussex University. He'll often assist Teri on larger UK & destination weddings although on occasion his teaching role must come first. In these cases, an equally amazing 2nd pro photographer will be swapped in. Paul & Teri have been married for 24 years & share the teenage humans & cats as mentioned above.
Your wedding photography story
It starts with the simplest of idea's and ends as a frozen moment in time
They say 'a camera never lies', but when are you ever that still, that quiet and completely without dialogue? What excites and challenges me about wedding and portrait photography is capturing 'ALL OF YOU' in that one image. It's not just about what you look like but who you really are - call it your essence, your light. Showing personality and life within a still image is what makes this subject forever exciting.
Whether it's in the eyes of a static portrait subject or the dizzying documentary footage from your wedding day, it's about creating your story. Photography that transports you back to those moments, where you can feel the happiness, butterflies, euphoria and of course the endless love.
A camera is the perfect TIME MACHINE after all... x
