As the documentary girl with a camera, it was only natural that as my friends began to get married, I capture their weddings on film. I was floored by how much I enjoyed it – as it turns out, filming smiling, overjoyed people in their best frocks, bursting with love is ridiculously fulfilling! And yes, a bridesmaid can lug a massive camera around, no probs! Anyway, a few weddings later, I was hooked.

My regular ‘9-5’ is as a freelance filmmaker… this ranges from the occasional broadcast piece, to community documentaries and dramas; I always try to work with organisations, charities, or institutions that inject something positive into the world, and on projects that keep me interested and inspired. Feel free to check out my commercial showreel here .

I love what I do, but none of the above have made my cheeks ache from smiling all day like filming weddings has… so here I am!
