CANDID. FUN. AUTHENTIC.

Zero stress documentary wedding photography with a focus on real moments.

Wedding photography, for me, is about capturing the genuine love, emotion, and joy of your special day, without letting the shot list get in the way.

Every day has a unique story, and I believe those moments deserve to be documented by being present and attentive.

Whether you’re planning a large celebration or an intimate gathering, I’m here to preserve the memories that you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

About Me

Hello, nice to meet you.

I guess you could say that I’m a modern wedding photographer, I’m interested in people and moments, capturing the things you miss in the blur of the day.

Grounded in a documentary approach, I let the day unfold naturally, but with some gentle guidance where needed.

If the idea of sticking to a list of ‘must have’ shots or standing around for 45 minutes doing formal photos chills you to the bone, then maybe we should talk.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes! I can travel all over the UK, Europe and the Rest Of the World.

Your photos are delivered via your own personal online gallery where they are available in high resolution, shareable with your friends and family and on all devices. Previews are 48hrs after your wedding and full galleries within 12 weeks.

I generally start around 2/3 hours before the ceremony and continue until after your first dance/bands first set. I believe in telling the full story of your day, without time limits.

Yes, absolutely. I keep these relaxed and efficient so you can get back to enjoying your wedding quickly.

For a full day wedding, you will receive a minimum of 700 images, usually lots more. For a Part Day (5 Hour) wedding, anything from 400 upwards.

Initially there is a booking payment/retainer of £300. Your remaining balance is then due one month before the date of your wedding. If you would like to spread that into a few payments, just let me know and we can set that up easily. Card payment is also available.

Personally, I believe that you can only really do one at a time and do it well, so I only offer photography. However I often work with lots of great videographers in South Wales and would be happy to recommend some to you.
