"I need a camera that provides the best of both worlds, the best of photography and the best of videography, two disciplines from one camera body and that’s why I fell in love."

The ease of switching between photo and video with one click of a button allows Philip to document the genuine moments of imperfection on one of the most important days of his clients’ lives, their wedding day.

I create my best imagery through imperfections, and it lends a part of me to that image. When I turn the focus ring on the lens, it’s my call, it’s my decision. It’s not always perfect, but it’s that moment of imperfection that makes it a better image, it’s never clinical or robotic, it feels genuine.

Philip can rely on his
Leica SL2-S to capture imagery that will stand the test of time and be passed down through generations to come.

"Weddings don’t get the kudos that fashion photographers or photojournalists receive, but I know the importance of my work. I know that in 10, 20, even 100 years time, my work is going to be someone’s most valuable possession. The Leica SL2-S allows you to be minimal, there is no need for rigs, monopods or gimbles, it is just you and the camera. Shoot 10-bit 4k video handheld, stabilized perfectly in-camera. Combining this with a 24 Megapixel full-frame sensor, get in-camera JPEGS in an instant, with no processing needed."
