I AM BASICALLY A PROFESSIONAL NINJA THAT OWNS A CAMERA…
I live in the beautiful Cambridgeshire countryside village of Alconbury, with my wife Jennifer and our kids Milo & Peanut. Yes, our kids are small, furry and poo in a box in our kitchen, but we live in East Anglia, so that’s pretty standard behaviour around these parts. That said, I capture romance all over the UK & Europe, so I’m happy to travel for your day.
Despite appearances, we are all very happy with the quiet life, Milo & Peanut in particular enjoy lording it over our little patch of the village. I need to keep convincing people to pay me to take photographs, so that my wife & kids don’t leave me, but also to fund my addiction to vinyl records, beer & fig rolls, so bare that in mind when you decide if you want to employ me! I really need the money so I will do a great job…

“Dan is so smiley and approachable, and not only made us feel at ease on the wedding day but all the guest felt he was part of our wedding”

Dan the musician
In my younger years I was in various punk rock bands (that’s me above trying to look cool with a mic swing – it twatted me in the head eventually) and I also played international baseball for GB! I have been told by various people over the years that my laugh is very infectious, and my rubbish attempts at growing a beard very entertaining, so I throw all that in for free when you book me.
WAIT A MINUTE, ARE YOU ACTUALLY A PROFESSIONAL?
Amazingly, and against all the odds, yes I somehow am a professional photographer with over 15 years experience! Not only that, I have picked up a few awards along the way, including winning Highly Commended at the 4 Counties Wedding Awards in 2019, and gaining multiple individual image awards from the likes of Nine Dots, Photographers Keeping It Real, Wedisson & LooksLikeFilm (I know none of these probably mean anything at all to you, but it sounds cool, right?).
I’m famous! Sort of…
