Babb Photo Full Description
Hi there! I'm Laura Babb, but my friends call me Babb. I'm an award-winning wedding and family photographer based in Birmingham and working across the UK. When I'm not behind the lens, you can find me stomping around the countryside, admiring the beauty of uninterrupted horizons, windswept landscapes, and desolate beaches. I'm also a lover of rolling hills, trig points, the light at dusk and dawn, starry skies, and pine forests. In my free time, I enjoy folk music, appreciating art and architecture, teaching meditation, and I'm also studying to become a counsellor. s a photographer, my biggest inspiration is the art of storytelling. I believe that every person and every event has a unique story to tell, and my goal is to capture those stories through my lens. Whether it's a wedding, a family portrait, or a simple moment in time, I strive to capture real emotions and authentic expressions that reflect the true essence of the people in the images. My hope is that, through my photography, I can help preserve and share these stories for generations to come. So if you're looking for a photographer who can capture the heart of your story, let's work together to tell it in the most beautiful and authentic way possible.

Laura is incredible!

Laura is so incredible at what she does. Choosing her to be our wedding photographer was the easiest and best decision of our wedding planning process – we absolutely love our photos. If you want a photographer who will capture the real moments in your day, Babb Photo is the one for you.

We had the best experience!

It was such a pleasure to work with Babb Photo. Laura and Pete were so lovely it was like having extra guests except you get the best photos ever. afterwards! Every bit of the process was enjoyable and easy. I chose them because I knew the quality of their work from a friend’s wedding and I wanted the same. Simply put – we had the best experience with Babb Photo for our wedding photography. Just an incredible photographer, great people. The quality of the experience and the product can’t be beat. Seriously though, I’ve deleted about four sentences saying the same thing in different words as above because it was overkill and it was starting to sound like I was fangirling. but really. She’s good.

A photography ninja!

Laura is a photography ninja! She captured some beautiful moments and we didn’t even notice her doing it. On top of this she was one of the kindest, most calming and lovely people we had the pleasure of meeting during our wedding planning. I can’t recommend her highly enough. To be honest, we felt like we didn’t talk to Laura at all during the day – we’d discussed everything and she made everything so easy that we’ve decided she should have some higher role than ‘just’ photographer – I think she was probably crucial in keeping the day together! However, that’s a testament again to Laura, she was unobtrusive whilst also getting all the photos we wanted and has produced something beautiful – we decided originally to book Laura because her photography is incredible, but she also fitted with our personalities and just made us feel so secure about everything we would do together. Laura is amazing, supportive and so talented. She made us look beautiful and we both agreed she was one of the best decisions we made!

Firstly...

Firstly, Babb Photo's website is the most comprehensive photographers website that we came across. The examples of previous weddings coupled with the advice section of the blog proved invaluable to us, and not just when planning our photography. We felt that for the money we paid to have two dedicated photographers meant that we felt super confident all of our day would get captured. Not many other photographers could offer this. We also feel that the work produced by Babb photo is timeless.

Laura was totally wonderful at all times...

Laura was totally wonderful at all times - more of a consultant for all things 'wedding' than anything else, she helped keep things organised as well as getting amazing photos which we love and can't get enough of. We loved her documentary style before we booked her and didn't regret a thing. Laura stayed for 8 hours and took amazing shots that don't look staged or uncomfortable, and she managed to fit in far more types of photo than we though possible. Loved her attitude in every single way.

Babb Photo are more than just amazing wedding photographers...

Babb Photo are more than just amazing wedding photographers. They've become friends, counsellers and also wedding organisers. We love the photos they've taken of us and have enjoyed every minute of working with them. The photos tell the story of the wedding day from start to finish in a way that really shows that they appreciate every wedding is unique because it is the people and differences that make it the special day that it is.

With luck we only engage a wedding photographer once in...

With luck we only engage a wedding photographer once in our lives, but even without comparative experience I find it hard to believe that anyone else does the job quite like Laura and Peter. Staged and formulaic shots are largely ignored in favour of a wide portfolio which focuses not just on us, but on our guests and the places in which our celebrations take place. The outcome is testament to the whole day, in all its quirky glory, and to the skill and artistic eye of the photographers.

I have just been going through our wedding photos...

I have just been going through our wedding photos and I cannot express enough how fantastically wonderful they are! It was such a pleasure having Laura with us, she made both my husband and I feel very comfortable, as well as our guests. The photos have captured every aspect of our wedding and I am so grateful to Laura for doing this. You are a wonderful person and an incredibly talented photographer. Thanks you so much!

It rained from beginning to end of our outdoor beach...

It rained from beginning to end of our outdoor beach wedding. I think a less talented photographer could have really struggled in the conditions but Laura created the most amazing set of images- it tells the story of the day so perfectly, the images are vivid and subtle and funny and beautiful. Laura was soaked to the skin for most of the day but was just the most reassuring, relaxed, professional, enjoyable presence. www.babbphoto.com/luke-and-pip

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My most memorable weddings are always the ones where couples focus on having a day that really reflects who they are as people. They're usually relaxed, joyful, and full of opportunities to really connect with the people who are important to them.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Unobtrusive, creative, story-led, joyful, fun.

What about your business are you most proud of?

If you'd asked me this a few years ago I might have referred you to awards and accolades but that's shifted a lot in recent years. I'm honoured that I get to document the connection my couples share with each other and also with the people who are important to them.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Don't let planning consume you! Being engaged is an incredibly special time. Take some time to enjoy it.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

I'm always really moved by the things people do to honour the loved ones they've lost. One of my favourite pictures is of a top table at a wedding breakfast where everyone is laughing and having a joyful time and there's a picture of the bride's father on the front of the table. He'd passed away a few months before the wedding but he was still a huge part of the day.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

We'll typically start with a chat to where I can find out a bit more about you and what you're looking for. I'll tell you a bit more about me and my style and if we're a good fit for each other we can get you booked in. From there I'll offer support and guidance as you move through your planning process if you need it; I'm here to support you in any way I can. Around three months before the wedding we'll kick of the planning process; I'll get you to fill out my planing form with timings etc and then we can have a planning chat to go through everything. After the wedding I typically send some preview images within a couple of weeks, then you'll receive the full set of beautifully edited images from your day.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

I don't think any one photo is more important than any other. My aim is always to tell the story of the day from start to finish. All of the 'big' moments will be in there but I also aim to capture the in between moments that happen along the way.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

There was a side-quest to take a photo on Tower Bridge that involved the car driver illegally stopping, me almost not making it back to the car, and some joyful singing along to very loud music all the way back to the reception... ask me about it when we chat!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Embracing it! We can do your group shots inside, but it's really nice to grab umbrellas and embrace the weather for your portraits if you're up for it.

Describe how you got into photography.

Completely by accident. Although I found out after my grandad passed away that photography was his passion. We found boxes of his pictures in his loft, along with a beautiful rangefinder camera. I like to think I inherited my passion from photography from him.
