What equipment do you use?
I’m often asked what photographic equipment I use. A good photograph is based on a good idea, creativity and a good technical understanding, equipment is always secondary. Having said this, a camera bag filled with great cameras and lenses can help! The golden rule for me is to use prime, (fixed focal length), lenses whenever possible. Prime lenses are not the standard zoom type of lens but are better quality due to the quality of the glass, there are also less groups of glass elements within the lens which ultimately means they produce sharper images. I also often take an old film camera along with me to weddings as well as my regular digital kit, there are some style of shots that digital cameras just cannot quite capture, (yet!)
My camera bag includes;
Canon 5D MkII
Canon 5D Mk I (Spare)
Canon 16-35mm F2.8L
Canon 85mm F1.2L
Canon 50mm F1.4
Sigma 105mm Macro F2.8
Sigma 15mm Fisheye F2.8
Canon 70-200mm IS F2.8L
Canon 580EX II Flashgun
2x Bowens 500DX Mono blocs
2x Bowens 750 Plus Mono blocs

Wedding venue – 116 Pall Mall, IOD (London)
116 Pall Mall, also known as The Institute of Directors, (IOD), is a venue I have photographed a few weddings at. It is a brilliant place to hold a wedding, a blend of splendor and history welcomes you as you make your way up the breath-taking staircase. It was built in the 17th century and is a grade 1 listed building. Wedding ceremonies can actually be held on the huge staircase! There is a marble bust of Lord Nelson which is said to be the only bust of Nelson created from life and stands on a plinth made from part of HMS Victory! Massive paintings of Nelson’s famous battle at Trafalgar adorn the walls, it really is a sight to behold. The service also runs like clockwork, the in-house wedding planner there is one of the best I have worked with, her attention to detail is phenomenal!
