Camelia and Kerry have been married for 19 years and worked together for even longer – so when it comes to weddings (and marriages!) we are experts!
Our knowledge and experience means we know most of the churches and venues throughout Essex. We have been full time photographers for over 18 years in which time we have photographed well over a thousand wedding between the two of us, mainly in Essex, but we have travelled to Hertfordshire, Kent and Suffolk and further afield by recommendation. We were amongst the first photographers working in a more relaxed reportage style at the time when the traditional formal style dominated wedding photography.
A bit more about us;-
-
We are both qualified photographers, Camelia studied traditional film-based photography in 1993/94 and graphic design in 1998 to gain a greater understanding of the digital side of photography and design.
-
Kerry also studied photography at Salisbury College of Art (longer ago!) and worked in different fields – starting with teaching photography in American camps, to working as a cruise ship photographer and printer and finisher in a photo processing lab.
-
Camelia and Kerry first worked together as cruise ship photographers travelling around the world and capturing life aboard cruise ships as well as places visited and producing mini albums for the passengers to take home as a momentum of their holiday.
-
We are married and have a beautiful son and also a big friendly dog and 3 cats – so home life is quite busy when we are not photographing or meeting clients at the studio
-
Avanti means “forward” in Italian and the name reflects Kerry and Camelia's Latin ancestry
-
Camelia's main interests are Theatre, horse riding, mountain hiking and winter sports. Also, travelling, meeting with friends and spa days.
-
Kerry like his golf and and fishing and sporty things in general and loves getting his son involved.
