Will

Sparkes

It started with a kiss, and now, over 34 years later, we are Will and Sarah Sparkes – photographers, soulmates, and passionate storytellers based in the heart of Somerset. As documentary wedding photographers, we specialise in capturing candid, authentic moments that reflect the true essence of your special day.

Having grown up and lived in Somerset all our lives, we deeply understand the beauty and uniqueness of this county. We know that your wedding is not just a celebration but a tapestry of personal stories woven together. Our goal is to capture those stories – the laughter, the tears, the joyful glances – so you can relive them for years to come.

Our passion for photography began with our own wedding. Back in 1989, the choices for wedding photographers were limited. There were no pre-wedding consultations or personalised plans; we simply went with the local photographer. Despite the traditional posed shots, we still cherish our wedding album and the memories it holds. This experience inspires our approach today – to offer more than just a collection of photographs but to deliver a visual narrative that truly captures the heart and soul of your celebration.

We approach wedding photography as a team. Sarah brings a bubbly, chatty energy, honed from over 20 years of teaching at a local primary school, where her communication and organisational skills shine through. Will, with his love for technology, dry humour, and knack for detail, ensures that no moment goes unnoticed, from the finest camera settings to the perfect timing of each shot. Together, we combine creativity and technical expertise to document your day unobtrusively, allowing you to focus on enjoying every moment.

As documentary wedding photographers, we work quietly in the background, capturing the spontaneous, heartfelt moments that make your wedding day unique.
