some memorable moments from her experience of shooting over 600 weddings,
how to pronounce scone and Bath,
how she deals with anything that bugs her about this industry,
her experience of being the photographer for the Nine Dots Gathering 2019,
what she does in the quiet season,
how she balances being a mum and being a wedding photographer,
her most effective marketing avenue,
