Your wedding isn’t just about the two of you standing at the front; it’s also about the people who came to support you and share the day with you.

My approach is family-focused; taking the pressure off you both and allowing space for the reactions, connections, and memories happening all around you.

These photographs help tell that fuller story - how your wedding looked, sounded, and felt through your guests’ eyes.

No, but can you tell?

It’s a question I’m asked a lot, and sometimes the answer is no. But that doesn’t mean I won’t create natural, beautiful photographs of your day.

Great wedding photography isn’t about knowing a venue inside out. It’s about reading the light, working with what’s happening in front of me, and responding to your day as it unfolds.

New venue or familiar one, the focus is always the same: real moments, genuine connections, and photographs that feel like you.

In ten years’ time, it’s easy to recall the big things - the first kiss, how it felt putting your dress on, walking down the aisle. But that’s not the whole story.

It’s the bridesmaid making sure you’re fed in the morning. The confetti ending up in your mouth, and down your dress!

These are the moments I want you to remember.

Don't you worry, I include these in the gallery too 😝

Just before the ceremony starts, I love to ask the groom to show me his nervous face. It eases the tension, the expressions are priceless, and it always makes me laugh.

And almost without fail, what comes next is an easy, genuine smile - the kind you can’t fake.

A moment I absolutely loved capturing - the bride’s mum and the groom’s mum dancing together in the evening. Such joy, such personality, and a beautiful reflection of two families coming together.

These are the kinds of moments that make every wedding unique. ❤❤

I don’t often get to photograph the guys getting ready - I’m usually with the bride during morning prep.

But on this occasion, everyone was under one roof: bride, groom, bridesmaids, and groomsmen. It was as chaotic and lively as you’d expect but also brilliant for capturing moments like this.

The guys figuring out how to tie their ties… puzzling over how to fasten the buttonhole… even the bride helping the groom with his shirt!

Back at Seckford Hall this weekend for a super fun wedding! They managed to have an outdoor ceremony which is a beautiful setting round the bandstand. Absolutely lovely people - they all welcomed me in from the get go and we had a good laugh together.

Quite frankly, the photos speak for themselves of how beautiful, fun and wonderful a day it was.

Stunning floral arrangements as usual by the amazing

Easiest way to get lasting memories of parts of the day even you didn't witness...

Double up!
Two photographers

While I’m off with you doing your couple portraits, the second photographer can be photographing your guests and getting amazing photos of them talking/ laughing/ playing.

There are going to be parts of the day that you won’t witness, and I can’t be in two places at once either… so to ensure more memories of all your guests, I would really recommend doubling up and choosing a package with two photographers.

When we were planning our wedding, I remember how frustrating (and honestly, a bit unnerving) it was when some suppliers were difficult to get hold of or took ages to reply. It left us wondering if everything would actually come together on the day!

I never wanted my couples to feel that way. That’s why, as a full-time wedding photographer, I’m always available during working hours. Whether you’ve got a quick question or need to chat through the finer details, I’m just an email or call away.

No waiting around. No chasing up. Just peace of mind, knowing I’m here to help keep your wedding planning as stress-free as possible. 💌

"Remember that time when I couldn't get the ring on?" 😂😂

Childhood sweethearts with the sweetest story. Wivenhoe House was the perfect venue for this wedding as both of their parents had previously been married there too!

It was a beautiful day and such a pleasure to spend it with this couple. The colour scheme made the reception room feel light and fresh and all the details were just stunning.
