As a London-based wedding photographer specializing in micro weddings, my passion is telling the story of your special day through natural, documentary-style photography. Your wedding is a unique celebration, and my goal is to capture it as it unfolds—the glances you share during your vows, the joy on your loved ones’ faces as they see you in your dress for the first time, and all the little moments in between. These are the memories you’ll cherish in 5, 10, even 50 years, and I’m here to help you relive them every time you look at your photos.
First steps: Let’s Have A Chat!
Finding the right photographer is about more than just loving their portfolio; it’s about feeling comfortable with the person behind the camera. That’s why I always recommend we start with a chat. Whether you’ve come across my work on my website or social media, let’s talk about your wedding plans and what you envision for your photos. Feeling at ease with your photographer makes a world of difference—it leads to more natural, relaxed photos and an experience you can truly enjoy. Together, we’ll discuss your ideas, expectations, and the moments that matter most to you, ensuring I can bring your vision to life.
My Approach To Wedding Photography
Every wedding is unique and I offer a variety of packages from shorter ceremony only up to full day coverage, but here’s a glimpse into how I typically approach the key parts of the day…
Getting Ready
If you choose to include getting ready in your coverage, I’ll be there to document the excitement and anticipation of the morning. These moments are full of emotion—your bridal party helping you into your dress, the final touches of hair and makeup, or the quiet reflection before the big moment. These photos set the scene for your day and are a beautiful addition to your story.
Ceremony
I focus on documenting the ceremony as it happens, unobtrusively capturing the emotion and significance of the moment. From the exchange of vows to the reactions of your guests, my aim is to tell the story of your ceremony authentically and beautifully.
Group Photos
If you’d like formal or relaxed group photos, we’ll discuss your preferences during the planning stage. Whether it’s a fun, laid-back group shot or a more traditional family portrait, I’ll ensure these moments are well-organized and enjoyable for everyone. Keep in mind that group shots can take some time, depending on the size of your wedding party, so we’ll factor that into the timeline. If you prefer to skip formal group photos and keep things casual, I can capture candid moments of you and your guests celebrating.
Couples Photos
Couples photos are often a favourite part of the day, but I know being in front of the camera can feel daunting! My approach is to keep it relaxed and stress-free. We’ll capture natural moments, like the two of you walking hand in hand, soaking up that just-married feeling.
If you’d like a little guidance, I can suggest easy poses or ideas that suit your style and personalities. We can plan ahead, discussing locations and any specific shots you’d like, so you feel confident and excited about this part of your day.
Celebrating After
From heartfelt speeches to joyful dancing, I’ll be there to capture the laughter, the happy tears, and the spontaneous moments that make your wedding uniquely yours. Whether it’s a laid back drinks reception, party games, a sparkler send-off, or dance floor fun I’ll capture these special moments with your loved ones, that you’ll want to remember forever.
Why Micro Weddings?
Micro weddings are intimate, heartfelt, and filled with love. They allow for a more personal connection with your guests and more time to focus on each other. This style of wedding aligns beautifully with my relaxed, documentary approach—capturing the essence of your day without interrupting the flow of events.
