I\u2019ll explain a little about my name. I was born in Swansea and I lived right by the Sea. Out of my bedroom window you could see the sea and used to sit on my windowsill watching the world go by and the waves crashing in. Daffodils are also my favourite flower so that is where the name Daffodil Waves Photography came from.<\/p>\n<p>I Married my perfect Man in 2008 so have first hand knowledge on what Brides are going through and how important it is to capture every moment of their day. I wasn\u2019t one of these people that always knew they wanted to be a Photographer but I did always have a camera in my hand! It was after I started studying Photography that I really found out where my heart belonged (and dark room photography gives you a whole new respect for digital).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} What do you love\/dislike about your job?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>I love meeting new people, being with the Bride the moment they have the \u2018Oh my goodness, this is really happening\u2019 moment, seeing all the plans they have told me about come together, being the one to capture the memories and receiving the phone call\/text\/email after the day telling me they cried looking at them. I really tried hard to think of something I dislike so I\u2019m not just saying \u201cNoooo, I love everything\u201d but seriously, I can\u2019t think of one thing I dislike.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} How did you get into photography and into the wedding industry?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>I got into my business whilst studying Photography. They asked everyone there \u201cWhat field of Photography do you see yourself leaning towards\u201d and I was the only person who knew. Instantly I said \u201cWeddings\u201d and while I sat there looking at the Whites of my fellow students eyes as they sat there in total fear that I could want to shoot Weddings, I was very confident with my choice. I then shot a few Weddings and it snow balled from there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} What do you aim to achieve for your clients?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photos that capture the story of their day and exactly what they dreamed of! My clients always seem to turn into friends so we get to know each other very well. Along this journey we share our thoughts and visions (usually over Nando\u2019s or cocktails) so by the time the day arrives it\u2019s like we are two friends hanging out.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} What style is your work?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>I try to blend into the background as no one likes a camera up in his or her face so I guess my style is very reportage and relaxed. The Bride and Groom are nervous enough on the day without the worried stress of having to stand a certain way.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} Could you tell us some information about your packages\/prices?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>My packages are usually all day coverage with a bit of photo wall thrown in but I also understand everyone is different. I am up for listening to your ideas and putting a plan together to suit your needs.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} Do you have any tips for couples in selecting their wedding photographer?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Choose someone you get on well with. This person is going to be with you all day. I&nbsp; understand having a budget is important (believe me, mine wasn\u2019t very big) but try not to let this be your main focus. Look at their work (a whole album) and how those pictures make you feel. After all, this is what you are going to have to look back on.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff66cc;\"><em><strong>{w} How can we get in touch with you?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Email &#8211; info@daffodilwaves.co.uk,<br \/>\nWebsite &#8211; daffodilwaves.co.uk<br \/>\nFacebook &#8211; facebook.com\/daffodilwaves<br \/>\nTwitter &#8211; @daffodilwaves<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thanks so much Nicola and welcome to the family!
