A collection of real weddings shot in a documentary photography style. Real moments captured not staged.
The last Saturday of October, almost November, and it was an unseasonably warm day at Houchins for Abbie-Louise and Matthew’s wedding.In fact I have checked the nearest weather station in Coggeshall and it reached 21.5°C that day, which is my favourite temperature for a wedding. It’s just right. And the autumnal sunlight is just beautiful,…
Another couple who were not strangers to me; I saw them both at the wedding of Chris and Sass just two weeks before. I seem to recall Rosie having an excellent time on the dance floor!So I was absolutely delighted when they chose me to capture their wedding day. I got to catch up with…
I love an August bank holiday wedding. As the summer comes to an end, even if it’s a school night, it doesn’t hinder the joy of celebrating late into the night – the last hurrah of summer. This is especially true when the band Eddie & The Murphys began the evening with a beautiful rendition…
It was one of those very warm summer days when I headed north to Suffolk for a vibrant and colourful wedding in a garden—the garden of the groom’s childhood home. Everyone worked hard to transform the space into a gorgeous, festival-themed wedding celebration.It was very carefully planned by Jack and Anna, with their friends and…
Five Years Earlier I captured this moment on the dance floor between Chris and Sass at the wedding of their friends Sarah and Duncan up in Shropshire. One of the loveliest aspects of my job is witnessing couples, whom I’ve seen as guests over the years, finally tying the knot themselves. It was raining when…
The rain turned to sun on this jubilee weekend Saturday, perfect timing for Catrina and George to get married at Thaxted Parish Church. St. John the Baptist with Our Lady and St. Laurence is a church with a fascinating past, Gustav Holst played the organ in this very church! Was choirmaster, and wrote the infamous…

This wedding was the perfect welcome back to work; I was surrounded by many very familiar faces.So many couples whose weddings I had photographed over the years, and a few new additions to their families.Polly and Pip had been their guests, members of the wedding party, and now it was their time after a wonderful…
A glorious marquee wedding in the garden of the Essex family home. I was over the moon when Anna got in touch to let me know she was getting married and I realised I was available for that day. After photographing her sister Jess and her brother Adam’s weddings I knew this would be an…
Whilst out walking the other day I ended up taking a moment to reflect upon how I shoot weddings, as my wedding season is about to almost return to normality.I have missed it so very much.I already talk a bit about my reportage approach on the home page, with a few testimonials to give you…
The ceremony took place on Juliana’s Island in the middle of a little lake, and after the glass was broken and kisses were had it was time for drinks on the lawn. This set the mood for the rest of the day. Great conversation, laughter, drinks, and dancing into the night!Such a beautiful sunny September…
Wimborne Minster in Dorset was such a warm and welcoming place to hold a wedding like Sam and George’s, it felt like the whole town was the wedding venue! The year before Sam was bridesmaid for Jen, this time the roles were reversed. One of my favourite things about my job is that I often…
After the touching ceremony, we all boarded a bus for an exuberantly lively and delightfully cheesy singalong. Balancing dancing, singing, and snapping photos while on a moving bus proved to be an enjoyable challenge! Welcoming us near Leadenhall Market was Shonagh Duncan, the bagpiper, who led the grooms and guests to the warm embrace of…
Steph and Graham’s wedding day at Leez Priory near Chelmsford in Essex last summer was full of so many wonderful moments. Their two children were absolute stars! From the surprise horse & carriage Steph arranged for her new husband to their daughter putting on a very enthusiastic performance of Frozen’s “Let It Go” in front…
