Julian P.
Wedding Photography
Sounds lovely and really like the look of her work. Can't wait to meet her and see what the photos turn out like. So far, so very good :-)
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
To be interested in the people I photograph, to quietly observe and above all, to understand beautiful light
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What style of photography do you love? Feel free to share Pinterest or mood boards with me.
What do you love most about your job?
You can't put a value on the emotive value of a photograph - a good photograph will take someone back to a time and place in their lives - so I feel I am giving something very special to my clients, a one off, beautiful memory.
Creating the unexpected when my clients have no idea what I have taken until they see the pictures. I have the best job in the world in that I can give rather than take a photograph.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Its important as a Professional Photographer to have a great connection with my clients. I wanted to keep that relationship with my clients in order to create bespoke images for them, working for myself gives me the freedom to do this. I delegate the jobs that i'm not so good at or don't interest me, all the photography and communication with my clients is with myself in order to build that relationship and trust.
Why should our clients choose you?
With my experience, I have the ability to produce work which is not only highly creative, but is carried out in a manner that is unobtrusive and gentle. I am unflappable and enjoy working either as a fly on the wall, or in a more conceptual method, pushing creative boundaries but most important, is that my clients find working with me relaxing and with confidence.
