A Relaxed Cotswolds
Wedding Photographer


Hey there – Lovely to meet you!


Those looks, the hugs, the tears, then energy, the emotion – everything is on display at a wedding – that’s what makes them so, so good!

Naturally, there is so much going on, that in the rush and excitement of the day, these amazing elements can be missed or forgotten and that’s where I come in – to capture them.

Your images aren’t to just remember who was there and what you wore, they’re to re-live the day with the people and how it made you feel – to keep forever the connection, the energy in the moment, the beauty of your day. Photographs that you want to get lost in.

It’s a genuine blessing to be asked to share a couple’s day with them. It’s a unique and privileged position, which I have been doing for nearly 15 years and have a depth of experience as a result and more so, I don’t take on lightly. In fact, the more ideas, trends, and families I meet over the years, time and again, it always comes back to those core essential elements.

As a mum to three little ones – including twins! I know how to cope with the unexpected. To adapt, change and always see the positive from it. That’s when I am at my best, naturally going with the flow of what’s happening and making sure everything that needs to get done – does.  I feel alive with simplicity – emotions, light, space, and a damn fine bit of architecture to place it all in.

I’m there for you, I’m one of your biggest and most subtle cheerleaders on the day. Always looking, searching, and capturing the magic of what you’ve created and who you both are.

I’m happiest with

(Family aside!) – A cold Peroni & a menu.

Favourite people

Our sweet 4yr old twins, Betsy & Hendrix and their little brother Sidney. Total favourites.

Hockey. I’m really terrible but love playing

If i was an object

Favourite season

Love Autumn. Colours, temperature, cosiness & earlier justifiable bed times

Bucket list destination

So many, but high on the list is Japan & Scandinavia.

Favourite TV show

Only Fools, Top Boy & People Just Do Nothing, basically anything based on a council estate in London.

The Wedding Day

what happens now?

About Me

The Morning

So, your wedding is finally here!

I’ll be with you about two hours before things get going. This gives me the opportunity to take it slow, grab some essential shots and get everyone used to having me about. 

You don’t have to get anything ready or do anything for me. Just do you and enjoy the buzz of your day finally being here! Depending on locations, I can come to both bridal parties and you don’t have to do any set up shots, but if you’d like a first look with parents or your bridal party, try and schedule in a little time. I’ll be there for those!

TOP TIPS

Tricky task, I know! However try and keep the room tidy.  If you’d like to a dress shot – think about hangers, wrapping, bedding and tables.

Gifts and cards – You may want to wait until I am there to capture those moments when the cards or gifts are opened. I can also be your go-between!

However if you think this bit may send you over the edge, you can always do it the night before or make sure these emotional moments happen before your make up is done!

My job is to be as stealth like as possible.

I will capture the moments, the emotions, the connections and the love in a calm and natural way, so you can be absorbed in whats happening. Relax and let me take care of everything.

Family Photos and group shoots

Family Photos

…and Relax, the hard bit is over. 

Some couples can feel so anxious pre-wedding, so this is the time when you can breath and the nerves give way to full bodied fun (unless you’re doing a speech, then hang in there for a bit longer).

During this time, we’ll take some family shots and cover the ‘must-have’ combinations that Nan needs to keep her happy. Apart from that, I’ll give you some space to do your thing for a while. I’ll be busy capturing the excitement from everyone and the joy of your guests finally being all together.

TOP TIPS

If you have someone who loves to cajole and herd people, then give them a list of your guests and let them loose! Theres always at least one in the bridal party! Maybe one from each side of the family too.

Keep it condensed and think about what you would realistically print after your wedding. Group shots take a second to shoot, but rallying 2nd Aunt Elsie or Dad’s relatives from the free bar can really eat into your downtime. Average is between 8 & 10 and that takes around 20-30 minutes.

you won’t feel a thing!

My couples tell me this is the photo they feel is the most important but the ones that they are looking forward to the least. I understand. It can feel like more stress, but trust me, it’ll be fun (really!). It’s an opportunity to spend ten quietish minutes together as I capture you in some gorgeous light or with some beautiful architecture as your backdrop.

TOP TIPS

Be flexible and trust me! We’ll grab 15-20 minutes before you head in to breakfast and generally I’ll time it to overlap with when your guests go in, just so you’re not away from your favourites for longer than necessary. We’ll also try and set aside another little session later when everything calms. My main guidance will be the weather Gods! So if I sidle up to you mid chat, it’s normally because something wonderful is happening with light that needs us to run and grab it!

I’ll always scout out some special places to go but if there is somewhere you particularly love or part of the venue you’re drawn to, just let me know.

Wedding Party

Party Time

The Party!

The party! The final chapter to the day needs just as much attention as the first one. I don’t pack up when your first dance is done, no best moves are never performed that early… There will be an organic time to leave you all to it.

Then that’s it! Having everyone you love in one space, having married your best friend, feeling a million dollars in you finery and a little fuzzy on champagne – I really don’t need to be involved any more and just like that, I’ll have a goodbye hug, then I’m gone! The night is yours!
