What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
For us, it’s all about connection and timing. A great photograph isn’t just technically perfect, it’s one that captures a real moment, a genuine emotion, or a little detail that tells part of your story. We focus on helping people feel relaxed and comfortable, because that’s when the magic happens. The best photos often come when you’re not thinking about the camera at all!
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
We like to start by really getting to know you and what matters most. Some of the things we might ask include:
What kind of event are you planning, and where will it take place?
What’s most important to you when it comes to your photos?
Do you have a particular style or feel in mind?
Are there any key moments or people you’d like us to focus on?
Have you worked with a photographer before, and what did you like or not like about that experience?
How do you want to feel when you look back at these photos in years to come?
These questions help us tailor the experience to you, so you feel comfortable and confident from the start.
What do you love most about your job?
It’s a real privilege to be invited into people’s lives to capture moments that matter. What I love most is being able to tell stories through photographs. The quiet glances, the bursts of laughter, the little details that might otherwise be forgotten. Every couple, every family, every shoot is completely different, and I never take for granted the trust people place in me to document something so personal. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that the images we create will be looked back on for years to come.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I’ve always loved photography, but it was seeing how much people value having genuine, meaningful photos that really inspired me to turn it into a business. Starting Winnie and Fred gave me the freedom to work in a way that feels personal and thoughtful, with space to really connect with the people I photograph. I wanted to create something that felt honest, calm and creative.
Why should our clients choose you?
If you’re looking for natural, honest photography and someone who helps you feel at ease in front of the camera, you’re in the right place. I take the time to get to know you and what matters most, so your photos feel personal and true to you. My approach is calm and unobtrusive, which means you can relax and enjoy your day while I quietly capture all the real moments as they unfold. Clients often say they barely noticed I was there, yet they received a gallery full of memories they’ll treasure forever.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
While most of my photography work takes place in person, I can offer some services remotely. This includes planning calls, consultations, and helping with timelines or shot lists over Zoom or phone. For branding and commercial photography, I can also work with clients remotely by receiving products by post and styling and photographing them in my home studio. If you're unsure whether your project could be done remotely, feel free to get in touch and we can chat it through.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I follow all current government guidance to help keep clients safe, and I’m happy to adapt to any specific requirements you might have. I bring hand sanitiser to every shoot, use face coverings when needed, and keep a respectful distance while still capturing all the important moments. For indoor shoots or events, I’m happy to discuss the setup in advance to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I also offer flexible booking terms in case plans need to change. Your safety and peace of mind are always a priority.
