When you're in the middle of planning your wedding it can feel like that's all you talk about, so taking time to celebrate each other and get some beautiful photos of you as a couple is a wonderful thing to do. I love to spend time getting to know you, hear about where and how you met and your journey together so far. I like to make the photo session as personal and meaningful as possible and work with you on ideas on how to best achieve this. I have photographed couples in urban London, beautiful parks, idyllic countryside’s, whatever reflects you best as a couple.

 

'These images are BREATHTAKING! You are so talented! we love EVERY single one! your work is remarkable, Eva! Just a huge WOW!!! We really enjoyed working with you as well, it felt like we already knew you.’ Katia & John

 

It is important for me to create a wonderful experience for you, where you feel relaxed, comfortable and able to be yourselves. My aim is to create beautiful and natural images which feel personal and authentic to you. These photographs are a window into your life, the story of who you are; and a beautiful range of heirloom quality presentation albums and other products are also available to bring them alive. To ensure you get the most out of it, shoots are completely tailored to you, so please get in touch to find out more about how I can capture these memories for you.

 

‘I always admired those engagement shoots I’ve seen in magazines, social media and I always wanted to have one. The reality is that not everyone is comfortable expressing their feelings in front of the camera and we were a bit shy about this upcoming experience. But after meeting Eva we were so delighted and went ahead with this photoshoot. Her professional approach and guidance made us feel very comfortable and we absolutely enjoyed the day. And the results had just blown our minds away! The pictures are so beautiful, and we are so thankful to Eva who captured the most beautiful moments of our special day!’ Augusta & Vitalie

 

‘We are absolutely mesmerised by our photos! We first opened the gallery together yesterday and spent the whole evening being absorbed by what we saw - they are so unbelievably beautiful! Neither of us knows how to express the depth of gratitude to you in words because it is all about how you made us feel… Please know that we are so thankful! You preserved our special moment forever and we cannot be more thankful to you for that… You truly are so talented as a photographer and beautiful inside out as a person! It was such a pleasure to meet you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Everything exceeded our expectations a million times!' Katya & lee

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO PHOTOGRAPHING COUPLES?

My photography style is natural, relaxed and timeless and my aim is to create beautiful, intimate and emotive imagery that represents you as a couple.

 

HOW CAN WE MAKE OUR SESSION UNIQUE?

Every love story is unique, so is every couple photo session. Ultimately, the most important choices you need to make is the location and your clothing, as these will reflect your personalities and the type of couple you are. Some of my couples know exactly what they want, however if you are unsure, I am happy to talk through ideas and options with you.

 

CAN YOU RECOMMEND US A MAKEUP ARTIST HAIRDRESSER ETC.?

Absolutely! Working in the wedding industry in the last years I have worked with some fantastic wedding suppliers, whose details are worth passing on, so feel free to ask! I think that pampering yourself a little bit before your engagement photos is a great way to relax and will leave you feeling confident and your absolute best.

 

HOW LONG WILL THE SESSION LAST?

The photo session lasts for 2 hours; and you will have time for a change of clothes if you would like more variation. The best time of day for photo sessions is two hours before sunset or two hours after sunrise. Most of my couples opt for evening session, but I am used to early starts (got three kids, remember) so we can discuss what works best for you. I shoot during weekdays as my weekends are primarily booked with weddings.

 

CAN WE SHARE THE GALLERY WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY?

Yes of course. Your gallery will be available from the ‘client’ area of my website. You will get a password to access the gallery and another to download the images. The images can be downloaded in high resolution (6000 px wide) as well as web size versions (1024 px wide). The high-resolution files can be used to print photos up to poster size canvases and are more than sufficient for web use. The web-sized images are much smaller and therefore are faster to download and upload. They are ideal for sharing on Social Media or for quick viewing. You will be able to send the link with the passwords to your friends and family as you wish.

 

DO YOU OFFER PRINTS AND OTHER PRODUCTS?

Yes, my client gallery is linked to my favourite professional printing lab and you will be able to directly purchase prints, canvas, metal and mounted prints. It is a very user-friendly site and the printing lab produces very high quality, beautiful products which I am proud to put my name on. Other products like print boxes, acrylic frames and keepsake folios are also available, so please let me know if you would like me to source something special for you.

 

CAN YOU MAKE A PHOTO ALBUM FROM THE IMAGES?

Yes, I am very happy to partner with Yorkshire-based company Folio Albums to offer beautiful fine art photo albums. Each album is handcrafted with the highest quality materials and care. Folio albums are luxurious and wonderful products you will fall in love with at the first site, just like I did. Please click (here) to read more about Folio albums.

 

THAT ALL SOUNDS GREAT, HOW DO WE BOOK?

A 30% non-refundable booking fee is required to secure your date. We can email or chat over the phone about location ideas and other details to make the session perfect for you.
