Gemma Machell Photography Full Description

Capture Your Wedding Day with Natural, Romantic Photography

Based in the heart of Banstead, Surrey, Gemma Machell Photography specializes in capturing weddings with a genuine, heartfelt approach. Gemma’s passion for all things wedding means she tells the full story of your day—from those quiet, anticipatory moments to the lively celebrations on the dance floor. Her style is natural and romantic, creating timeless images that preserve your most precious memories.

Covering weddings across the UK, Gemma understands that your wedding day is uniquely yours. She focuses on capturing authentic emotions and candid interactions, delivering meaningful photos you’ll treasure forever.

A Relaxed, Unobtrusive Photography Experience

Feeling nervous about being in front of the camera? Gemma creates a calm, relaxed atmosphere that helps even the most camera-shy couples feel at ease. Her unobtrusive, documentary-style approach means you’ll barely notice her presence as she captures genuine moments throughout the day.

While candid shots are her specialty, Gemma also values couple portraits. These sessions are kept short and natural—a relaxed stroll rather than a formal photoshoot—so you can quickly return to enjoying your guests and celebrations. It’s also a perfect moment to pause, soak in your new marriage, and recharge.

I always have a pre meet with you and ideally that's at the venue, so you can show me round and we can get excited over possible locations for awesome photos.

FIRST GLANCE, all the way it captures everything!

I also love the golden hour shoot when you're a bit more relaxed and the light is simply beautiful

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

The most original photos was an ad hoc flower field shoot, which involved jumping a fence. The photos were absolutely gorgeous even if I did get a few stings from nettles (totally worth it)

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Umbrellas send awesome lighting for some stunning artistic shots. Make the most if it and enjoy it (the photos will be amazing)

Describe how you got into photography.

I have worked as a nurse for many years mainly in oncology. I realised life is full of special moments and so precious. I then choose to combine that joy with my other passion (photography) which lead me to the best job ever. I love love and completely melt at weddings
