Caroline Nixon Photography Ltd

On your wedding day, I usually arrive around an hour before the ceremony begins. This gives me time to capture the venue in all its untouched beauty—those quiet, thoughtful details—before your guests start to arrive and the day springs to life.

If you’d like, I can also photograph the getting-ready moments of both the bride and groom. These behind-the-scenes glimpses often become some of the most heartfelt and personal images from the day.

During the ceremony, I work discreetly to document every important moment: the groom waiting at the altar, guests arriving, the bride’s entrance, your vows, ring exchange, first kiss, and the signing of the register. Many couples also choose to have a confetti shot after the ceremony—it’s a joyful, high-energy moment that makes for truly vibrant photos.

After the ceremony and before the wedding breakfast, I’ll guide you through a relaxed session for family and group portraits. This is usually the best time to gather everyone while they’re together and looking their best.

Throughout the day—and into the evening—I focus on natural, candid storytelling. From the spontaneous laughter during speeches to the cutting of the cake and your first dance, I’ll be there to capture the spirit and emotion of each moment as it unfolds.

But I’m not just your photographer—I’m also part of your team. I’m there to support you, help keep things on track, and offer a calm presence. Whether it’s liaising with your coordinator, keeping an eye on timings, or helping with the little things (like fixing a buttonhole), I’m there to make your day run as smoothly as possible.

My approach is relaxed, fun, and unobtrusive. I avoid overly posed shots, instead letting the moments unfold naturally. Often, the images that mean the most are the ones you didn’t even realise were being taken—the genuine glances, quiet touches, and joyful chaos you’ll want to remember forever.

When you first get in touch, I’ll send over a complimentary, no-obligation quote by email so you can review everything at your own pace.

If you choose to go ahead, I’ll provide a simple contract outlining all the terms and details—designed to give you complete clarity and peace of mind. Once the contract is signed, a small booking fee is required to secure your date.

You’ll then receive a confirmation email and a receipt for your deposit.

Two to three weeks before your wedding, I’ll get in touch to go over all the final details. We’ll chat through the timeline of your day, key moments you’d like captured, and any specific requests you may have. This is also when the remaining balance is due.
