I have a real passion for delivering beautiful images that reflect the authentic, heartfelt emotions of a wedding.
I document the day in a relaxed manor, picking up on all the key moments, whilst capturing all the fun and humour as it unfolds
I really thrive on making the most of the natural landscape, I’m a sucker for a large moody sky or a stunning starlit evening, not to mention the magic of the golden hour, chasing light is a must at any wedding

Keiran & Katie were such a great couple to work with, full of fun & laughter so it was only right we cracked out the smoke bombs at the end of the day
Venue - Irnham Hall
Drunk in love - They sure where, I couldn't ignore this apt sign at sunset!
Used with the Godox Flash system
Venue - The Old Hall Ely
This was one of those images that I knew I was going to create as soon as I arrived that morning. The composition just hit me within seconds of having a recce
Venue - Gretna Green
Iulia & Gabriel had that undeniable look of love about them, it really shone through in their images. A moment of reflection by the lake as they snuggled in tight.
Venue - Longstowe Hall
Claudia & Paddy's wedding was a banger! I had so much fun that day and this image really sums this up. Smoke bombs in the rain, go on then.
Venue - Lains Barn.
Jess & Owen were a dream to work with! I loved the composition in-between the columns & wisteria, I added a smoke bomb for a little drama, then let them to get tangled up in love
Venue - Bedford Lodge Newmarket.
I've just discovered smoke bombs, and now it seems I can't get enough of them. Sunset strolls around Rutland Water with Bec & Tom, what a beautiful couple inside & out.
74th CollectionBlue skies & bubbles, yes please. Great fun at Normanton Church with Bec & Tom. This was one of those days when everything just feel into place seamlessly.
74th CollectionThis was my first wedding back after lockdown and man did it feel great being back amongst the love and laughter! One good thing about a smaller, intimate wedding is that you have more time to explore with the couple, so we did just that and we struck gold! Anna & Dan, it was a pleasure.
74th CollectionA moment of reflection! Couple's portraits at sunset always go down well. This image of Suzanne & James was the last before we headed back to the venue. I just love the relaxing, tranquil vibe of this image. Venue - Old Hall Ely.
73rd CollectionGemma & Chris were keen to try this idea I had in mind. I took a high vantage point on a step ladder, then they both got cozy and had a moment!
72nd CollectionAn atmospheric winter scene at Bassmead Manor Barns. Amanda & Paul braved the elements for their couples portraits and I'm so glad they did. I converted this to black and white for a more dramatic feel
71st CollectionAbbie & Dan made a real effort to light up their marquee DIY wedding with festoon lighting. It looked so dreamy! I just love the romantic feel to this image.
71st CollectionThis shot was taken on one of my first micro weddings after lockdown. I remember that feeling of being out in the fresh air with blue sky and a happy couple. It felt so good. We spent around 30 minutes in this field shooting couple portraits. Just perfect!
70th CollectionWe were just about to wrap up the shoot when the reflection of the hall caught my eye walking back. I set Aynslie & Hugh in the centre of the frame and took a low viewpoint to capture as much reflection on the ground as possible. I had one flash behind them and one lighting them from the front; I got lucky with the raindrops on my lens creating a nice effect!
Venue - Stubton Hall
Aynslie & Hugh were such fun, expressive characters; so it didn’t take much for me to coax the laughter out of them. I placed them in front of some natural window light, underexposed for the highlights, and let them do the rest.
Venue – Stubton Hall Newark
I’d had this shot in mind all day; I waited until dusk, so there was still a hint of ambient light hanging around. I added a flash behind Kelsey & Steve to provide some backlighting which also illuminated the inside of the tent. I’m really pleased how this one turned out
Venue - Tissington Hall, Derby
The summer sun was finally dipping below the horizon, Sarah & Blake had one last intimate moment before they headed back to greet their evening guest
Venue - Burghley House Stamford
I'd found this location earlier in the day and noted it had the potential for a sunset shoot. Nikita & Andrew were keen to head away from the venue and go on the hunt for a sunset, I just love it when my couples agree to get a little adventurous. Everything came together and we were rewarded with a beautiful sunset, we captured many fun images in this sequence but I just adore the tranquility and peacefulness in this image. A moment of reflection.
65th CollectionSarah & Michael's venue was dressed perfectly for a winter-themed wedding, I took advantage of the warm candlelight & fairy lights to create this romantic moment. I added a little extra warmth to the image by using an ice light.
Venue - Old Hall Ely.
