A bit about me
This is me and what I love
Hello! I’m Diana, the woman behind the camera. I grew up in Germany, and now live in Ruislip West London with my soulmate James, and the two cutest cats on the planet, Hilda and Pablo. We are also super lucky to call New Zealand our second home, and you usually find me in Auckland for a few weeks during the UK winter. Long walks in the countryside, making a mess in the kitchen, pottering around my garden, cuddling my kitties, doing all things crafty, running, yoga and enjoying a nice cup of coffee with a slice of cake, are a few of the things I love.
I followed my dream to take up photography professionally in 2014, and it was the best thing I’ve ever done. I love the creative freedom my job gives me, that I keep learning all the time, and understanding how much it means to people what I can give to them.
I can’t quite believe it’s my 9th year in the business now and I enjoy it more than ever. I’m so much more confident in my work now than in the early days. I really feel I can contribute a lot to a wedding day, or any other shoot, through my experience and skill. There’s not much that can rattle me these days. :)
As well as documenting your occasion beautifully, I enjoy being a calm and reassuring presence, and someone you can turn to for advice.
“Diana was an absolute joy to have as part of our wedding day - she was completely professional, incredibly efficient and a warm and calming presence. She offers the perfect blend of giving great direction when needed, whilst also being completely discreet and never obtrusive during more intimate moments such as the ceremony.
I really appreciated the pre-meet with Diana and I feel like she completely nailed the brief - we have since received an unbelievable number of gorgeous photos and she achieved a brilliant blend of street style / captured moments with traditional and more contemporary back drops. She was part of our day at Marylebone Town Hall and was a complete expert in the area - if you are having a city (or even more rural) wedding, I have no doubt you will be delighted by your experience of working with her. Receiving a sneak peek of photos so shortly after the ceremony was an absolute treat, ahead of receiving the full suite of images which was also sooner than her initial timeline.
To Diana - thank you for capturing our day so beautifully!”
