My answer would be: soul-filling art that you'll be able to cherish for the rest of your life.
What do you want to look back at when your wedding is over?

You can trust in all my background knowledge (hey there, journalism degree and 100+ weddings) combined with conscious choices to care more about connection than perfection.
I have captured over 100 warm, loving destination weddings like yours, from Scotland and Italy to Australia and New Zealand.
But even if you got married in your own backyard: the most important is this: that you are the kind of couple who cares more about who's at the wedding than how many people are at the wedding.
Sounds like you? Then I'm your gal.
Let's chat!
Let me care about you

I am a visual storyteller that works a little differently.
Do not expect just a visual representation of your wedding, but the whole experience. The tears, the laughter. All of it.

"I imagined our video so many times but nothing compared to the intimate forest magic you captured. You turned our emotions into a visual masterpiece. Thank you for sharing your soul with us." When Agapè Stories was discovered, for the first time I had witnessed not only something great - but also connected, deep and truly gifted. There was no ego, no layer of pretence... this hit me and it hit me hard. I will cherish this work with my wife for the length of life itself."

"We are in awe. I laughed, I cried, I gasped. You captured everything and fit it in perfectly. You took the stories that made up the day and wove them into a cinematic work of art. You are truly gifted. We cannot thank you enough!"

Per year I take on a maximum of 10 weddings. This makes me able to deliver the quality I think a Wedding Story should have – the best of the best. This means I will take generous amounts of time to get to know you as a couple and make sure your photos and/or film convey who you are.
You can book me for either filming or photography, or combined!
As you have probably noticed my photos and films are different than most. I think composition is important, but not nearly as important as connection. One can create the most beautifully framed shots that don’t really convey anything. That’s exactly what I do not want for you.
That’s why I choose to care more about the moments of connection than about perfect framing.
You will end up with photos and a film that give you goose bumps and tears rather than it just being aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

"You made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. We knew we could trust your creativity and could feel your genuine love for your job and people.
Very rare in the wedding industry."
"WE COULD FEEL YOUR GENUINE LOVE FOR YOUR JOB AND PEOPLE. VERY RARE IN THE WEDDING INDUSTRY."

"We honestly cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us. From coming early and keeping me calm to working with the wind and directing us so clearly, we were honoured to have you photograph our crazy day."

In my opinion that's what marriage - and life in general - is about. Love is seen in connection. And that's exactly what I capture: connection. In its most genuine and authentic form.
Agapè is Greek (ἀγάπη) for 'the highest form of love, seen as selfless'.
