      <image:title>Home - My most memorable ceremony.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Bree called me one afternoon and said, “We’re having a Big Fat Gypsy backyard wedding. Are you in?” I couldn’t answer fast enough, and started looking for something to fit her requests of a Game of Thrones bishop dress code. Bree and Mark’s wedding stands out for me because it was truly them. We laughed, and even had to stop to get Bree a glass of water half way through the ceremony, but ultimately they were married in a way that was true to them and their relationship.

      <image:title>About - A bit about me.</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve been performing ceremonies - weddings and funerals - for my fellow Canberra locals for over four years now, and I count myself lucky to have the honour to stand next to people as they mark the significant days in their lives. I have a keen eye for detail so that all of the little things (and often the very important things) don’t get overlooked. So whether you’re farewelling a loved one, or welcoming a new one into your family, I promise to be your relaxed, respectful, and reliable companion for the days you want to remember everything else. If I sound like I could be a good fit for your next milestone, let’s chat more.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - Why I’m a good choice.</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’m funny, but I take my job seriously. I turn up on time, but I know when to leave. I think of the small things, but I see the big picture. I let you be sad, but help create positive memories. I laugh with you, but also remind you to laugh at yourself. And most importantly, I say what I mean, and mean what I say. I’d love to be the one who stands beside you at your next milestone. Let’s chat about what’s on the horizon for you. Photo: Thorson Photography</image:caption>
