Caption Examples:

                                   I had the pleasure of capturing the
                                   special day of Bill and Suzy. How
                                   handsome does Bill look? I am
                                   available for bookings now.

Caption Examples:
                                   That first glimpse, that exact moment when Suzie, his
                                   future wife, completely stole Bill’s breath away. The
                                   love, the emotion - THIS was a moment I had to
                                   capture.

                                   It's moments like these I feel the immense privilege of
                                   being a photographer. I know just how important it is to
                                   have someone you feel comfortable to be around on
                                   your special day, and to not miss a moment like this.

Caption Examples:

                       Tom and Amy are another happy
                       couple I have handed over the keys to
                       this week to their new home. Call me
                       today to find your new home.

Caption Examples:
                       I knew my clients Tom and Amy were going to be thrilled
                       with the news their offer had been accepted and that
                       they had bought their first home! I just had to tell them
                       in person.

                       Sure enough, Amy covered her face with an 'oh my gosh'
                       then revealed teary eyes of happiness. Knowing exactly
                       what they were after in a property helped me find them
                       their dream home.
