ABOUT ME

Tis I, a documentary wedding photographer based in Derry, Northern Ireland. My calling is to adventure throughout our emerald island to capture the heart & soul of your unique love story on the best day of your lives.
I began my photographic journey in 2014 when my firstborn baby girl came into this world. Not knowing how to operate a proper camera but using a smartphone constantly at my fingertips, I bought one anyway. The main reason was clear from the get-go, to document my little girl’s growth, but I found in due time that this was an art that I fell head over heels in love with.
Just Imagine holding a picture of the past in your hands and seeing the true value of a timeless spectacle. Fast forward a year later, I wanted to show the world what I had to offer, so, in 2016 I established my photography business into what it is today – A Memory Archive.

what makes me tick as a memory catcher

I love to photograph a couples connection, the desire they have for each-other is inspirational and feeds my romantic soul. An adventure with a view, a fun couple with a great sense of humour and isn’t afraid to let their love flourish is what makes me love what I do most. It’s a true honour to be a part of a couples story, documenting every cherished moment that will be with them forever.

ME IN A NUT-SHELL

I want to take pictures that matter to people, that imagery is a must-have during their wedding day! The heartfelt moments that last way beyond just a memory but to bring you back to that time. I’m completely driven by photography that hits the heart between two people.

Who doesn’t love a good wedding day? Even though I shoot them they are my all time favourite thing to be doing. I could shoot weddings all day every day if I could. Watching two people celebrate their love and having me there to capture it is an honor!
