"Documenting the greatest day of two peoples lives, and getting
the opportunity to tell the story of what happened on their particular
wedding day, offers a great challenge. More importantly though,
it let's me show off my story telling skills with the camera.
Every wedding is completely different, and needs to be photographed
in it's own special way."
Todd has the uncanny ability to capture the special little moments
that make up what a wedding day is all about. Emotion, expression,
body language, love, joy, and friendship are certainly at the
top of the list. At the same time, he's unobtrusive, and very
much a people person.
"Someone's wedding day is usually the biggest few hours of
their life. It' incredibly satisfying to be a part of such a fantastic
afternoon. The images I create, become part of that particular
families history, and that to me makes the work I do, incredibly
satisfying."
