The way I run my business matters to me just as much as the photographs themselves.

Inclusivity isn’t something I add in as a feature. It’s just how I believe things should be. Every couple is welcome here. Your wedding should feel safe, relaxed and completely your own.

I’m a naturally calm person, and that carries into how I work. I won’t make you perform or turn your day into a photoshoot. I’ll guide you gently when you need it, and step back when you don’t. Most of the time, I’m just quietly noticing.

I care a lot about the planet too. I’m always trying to run things in a more thoughtful, sustainable way behind the scenes, even in small decisions.

And being based in the South West, I feel really proud to work alongside local venues and other small businesses. There’s something special about collaborating with people who genuinely care about what they do.

If those things feel important to you as well, we’ll probably get along very well.

That’s always my goal.

If you’re dreaming of relaxed, natural images with gentle guidance when you need it, and plenty of space to just be yourselves, you’re exactly my kind of couple.

A peek behind the scenes of a professional brand shoot at Avalen Country Weddings ✨

Styled back to its bare bones, this shoot captures Avalen exactly as it is - elegant, character-filled, and ready to become your vision. No décor, no distractions… just timeless spaces with effortless luxury country charm 🤍

From the light-filled ceremony room, to the welcoming bar area, the rustic yet refined dining barn, and the beautifully calm Cart House bridal suite - every space is designed to feel special, even untouched.

A true blank canvas, where countryside warmth meets understated luxury ✨

This gorgeous, warm-toned shoot took place at the wonderful Battleford Farm in Devon. The venue is a gorgeous, rural blank canvas, and this shoot demonstrated how anything is possible in such a location.
I focused on capturing the warm candlelight & intimate feel.

Here's a little peek into a gorgeous engagement shoot I did last year.
Engagement shoots can be a really fun way of getting used to being in front of a camera, while getting some lovely, relaxed images of you together.

Some moments don’t need direction.
They just need to be noticed.

A hand held for reassurance.
A breath taken together.
The kind of quiet connection that happens when no one’s watching.

I photograph weddings in a way that feels unhurried and natural.
Gentle guidance when you need it, space when you don’t.
Light that stays true, colours that feel timeless, moments that remain yours.

If you’re newly engaged and drawn to photographs that feel relaxed, honest and enduring, we might be a good fit.

You don’t need to know all the details yet.
Just what matters to you.

My inbox is always open.
