SMALL BUSINESS COLLAB CALL ✨

One of my favourite things about running a photography business is connecting with other amazing local businesses 🤍
I’d love to do a few creative collaborations this year,  supporting each other, creating content, building connections and helping small businesses grow together.

Things I’d happily consider collaborating on include:
• Hair appointments
• Nails / lashes / beauty
• Floristry
• Local produce
• Children’s brands
• Content creators
• Independent shops & makers
• Pretty much anything creative or local!
In return, I can offer professional photography content for your family, business, products, services or social media.

If you’d be interested in collaborating, pop me a message. I’d genuinely love to connect with more local businesses this year ✨

“How do you get such natural photos?”

I get asked this a lot… and the truth is I don’t force it.

I’m not big on stiff posing or over-directing.

Most of the time, I’m just gently guiding and then stepping back.

I’ll give a little direction if needed…
but then I let things unfold.

A look.
A laugh.
A quiet moment in between.

That’s where the good stuff is.

I’ve been told I’m a bit “ninja-like” on a wedding day 😂
most of the time people don’t even realise I’m there.

And that’s exactly how I like it.

Because when people feel relaxed and not watched…
that’s when you get the most real, natural photos 🤍

What actually happens behind the scenes of a wedding shoot…

Spoiler: it’s not just taking pretty photos 😅

It’s arriving early and quietly switching into full “wedding mode”, part photographer, part dress fixer, part logistics coordinator, part calm-in-the-chaos person.

Helping with buttonholes (always asked: “which side does this go on again?”)
Steaming dresses, fixing veils, reassuring nerves.
Checking in with the groom.
Making sure mum is happy.
Keeping things flowing when the timeline inevitably shifts a little…

And all while staying tuned in to the moments happening naturally in front of me.

It’s busy.
It’s unpredictable.
And honestly? I love it.

Because in the middle of all that “chaos”…
the real, unplanned moments still happen, and that’s where the magic is.

This wasn’t a wedding I was photographing — it was my niece’s — but I couldn’t resist sneaking outside when I saw the sky turn gold like this. It’s one of my favourites, partly for sentimental reasons, but also because it captures exactly what I love about weddings… those quiet, beautiful little moments that just happen. ✨

If you’re planning your wedding in Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridge or Essex, and love relaxed, natural photography that captures how the day feels — I’d love to chat.

Hi, I’m Maria Carrington, a Suffolk-based photographer capturing weddings, events, and brand stories across Suffolk, Essex & Cambridge.

Photography has always been a part of my life — it’s not just about beautiful images, it’s about people. Every laugh, every glance, every little unscripted moment tells a story, and that’s what I love most about what I do.

Whether I’m photographing the joy and emotion of a wedding day, the buzz of a live event, or helping a business bring their personality to life through brand photography — my goal is always the same:
✨ to make you feel relaxed, confident, and authentically you.

With a creative eye and a friendly approach, I focus on capturing genuine connection and emotion, so you can relive those memories for years to come.

If you’re newly engaged, planning a special event, or looking to update your brand images — I’d love to hear your story and help you capture it beautifully.

✨ When’s the last time you updated your LinkedIn headshot?
Be honest… if it’s been a few years (or hairstyles ago 😅), this is your sign to refresh it.

Here are 5 reasons to book your new headshot with me:

1️⃣ First impressions matter. A professional, up-to-date photo instantly builds trust and confidence.
2️⃣ Stay relevant. It shows you’re active, approachable, and ready for new opportunities.
3️⃣ Be authentic. Let your photo reflect who you are today — not five job titles ago.
4️⃣ Personal branding. A consistent, well-shot headshot strengthens your online presence.
5️⃣ Boost visibility. Fresh updates (like a new photo) help your profile get noticed on LinkedIn.

📸 Whether you’re a business owner, freelancer, or job seeker — your headshot should work for you, not against you.

💬 DM me to book your LinkedIn Headshot session in Suffolk, Cambridge, or Essex — or tag a friend who needs a refresh!
