Inclusivity – Let’s talk about gender and identity.

I’m a white cis woman (she/her), so I don’t have direct personal experience of most issues around gender. I’m not going to pretend to be an inclusivity expert. I’m not – I’m learning all the time.

I’m not going to ask you to prove anything. If you tell me you are a man, I believe you. If you identify as a woman, I believe you. If you prefer to be called they/them, I’m going to do exactly that. If I don’t understand anything, I will ask! I will try not to make assumptions or judgements. I’m going to embrace you and all your beautiful complexity – or simplicity!  

I want to represent everybody on my website, in my images on social media, and more importantly in the ceremonies I write for you. That includes both ‘traditional’ and ‘non-traditional’ relationships and people of all orientations and genders. It might take time to build those photos up – but that’s my intention.

This is important regardless of the ceremony I am doing for you. Whether it’s a joyous occasion like a wedding, vow renewal, or naming, or a funeral, living funeral or ashes ceremony, it’s important that I respect you and represent you in the way that is most truthful to you

So, whatever your ceremony, I’m looking forward to getting to know you! If you want to talk more to see what we can do, get in touch!

Get in touch

I want to work with you!

I respect and want to work with people of all races, orientations, genders, ages, sizes, identities, lifestyles, cultures, differences and disabilities (whether visible or invisible). I will always try my hardest to be kind, considerate and inclusive. I can’t wait to meet you x
