Hi, I'm Katie, the photographer behind Captured by KDW, specialising in documentary-led, effortlessly editorial wedding photography across the North West and throughout the UK.
For the wildly in love and unapologetically themselves. The couples who want to enjoy every moment of their wedding day without spending hours posing for photographs.
My approach blends relaxed documentary storytelling with creative, fashion-inspired portraits. Think genuine moments, natural movement, rich tones and an effortlessly editorial finish.
As a recent bride myself, I know how quickly the day flies by. Expect gentle direction when you need it, a calming presence and your very own built-in hype girl behind the camera.
From half-day to full-day coverage, my collections include planning support, sneak peeks within 48 hours and beautifully edited online galleries.
You live the moment, I'll make it look effortlessly editorial.
I'd love to hear what you've got planned!

What is your photography style?
My style is relaxed, natural and documentary-led with an editorial edge. I focus on capturing real moments as they happen, while giving you gentle direction when you need it. The aim is for your photos to feel like your wedding day actually felt - not like one long photoshoot.
We’re awkward in front of the camera - is that okay?
Absolutely. Most couples tell me this before their wedding. I’ll never leave you wondering what to do - I’ll give you simple prompts and direction when needed, but I’ll also give you space to just be yourselves. Nothing forced, nothing overly posed.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes! I’m based in the North West, but I’m happy to travel across the UK for weddings. Travel outside my usual area may involve an additional travel or accommodation fee, which I’ll always make clear before you boo
How do we secure our wedding date?
Your date is secured once your booking contract is signed and the non-refundable booking fee has been paid. Until then, dates remain available to other couples.
How long will it take to receive our photos?
You’ll receive a small selection of sneak peeks within 48 hours of your wedding, with your full edited gallery delivered afterwards via a private online gallery.
Do you offer different lengths of coverage?
Yes. I offer options for intimate weddings, part-day coverage and full wedding days, so you can choose the coverage that works best for your plans. If you’re not sure how many hours you need, I’m always happy to help.
Can we have group photos as well as candid images?
Of course. Although my style is mainly natural and documentary-led, I’ll always make time for the important family and group photographs you want. I just like to keep them relaxed and efficient so you can get back to enjoying your day.
Do you offer a second photographer?
Yes, a second photographer can be added depending on your wedding and coverage. It can be especially useful for larger weddings, multiple locations or when you’d like both sides of the morning preparations captured.
Do you provide RAW or unedited images?
No. Every image you receive is carefully selected and professionally edited in my signature style, so RAW or unedited files aren’t supplied.
Are you insured and do you have backup equipment?
Yes. I photograph weddings using professional equipment with backup camera bodies, lenses, memory cards and batteries, so I’m prepared if something unexpected happens on the day.
