Commonly Asked Questions


 

Hello, I'm Hank! 

I'm a wedding photographer, author of the book Queer-Owned, *imperfect* vegan, and proud member of the LGBTQ+ community.

 Coming out was hard. But it was made easier by the people in my world who stood by me, accepted me wholeheartedly, and spoke up for me when I couldn’t use my voice. These people were my allies.

Queer Wedding Ally Training has been developed with you in mind: 

  • You accept and affirm LGBTQ+ people
  • You believe that love is love, regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation
  • And you are ready to make changes in your business to reflect your personal values

To be honest, this is a really big deal for me. Never in my dreams did I imagine I would have the chance to educate and support a global community of wedding professionals who are wanting to be more inclusive in their business.

Yet here we are, ensuring our personal values are integrated in our brands.

Thank you for joining the movement!

Feedback for Queer Wedding Ally Training

 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Many couples who book my services tell me that my genuine approach to being an ally, from website through to emails and our conversations, is part of why they booked my services.

Many of my couples may not be queer themselves, but they have family and friends who are, so it is important to them that they are using the services of someone who is a genuine ally and who will be inclusive and respectful of their guests as well as them as the marrying couple.

This course was a great prompt to reassess and review my language and ensure that my messages were consistent and welcoming."

Rosemary Johnson, Marriage Celebrant

"I have booked a lot more couples that have commented on my use of inclusive language! Thanks so much for your friendly, non-judgemental space - it gave me a lot to think about."

Sinead Allison, Golden Thread Photography
