Based in the heart of Lincolnshire, J A Photo Studio is run by Jay and Amy, a husband-and-wife team passionate about capturing the genuine, fleeting moments of your wedding day. Combining documentary and fine art photography, they create natural, timeless images that tell the unique story of your celebration. Their unobtrusive style lets you fully enjoy your day while they craft a beautiful visual narrative.
Every couple is unique, and J A Photo Studio understands that. From your first consultation, they focus on building a personal connection to ensure your personalities shine through every photo. This approach creates a relaxed atmosphere, resulting in authentic, emotionally rich images. Couples consistently praise their professionalism, patience, and thoughtful touches that make the entire process enjoyable and stress-free.
Since 2018, J A Photo Studio has photographed between 10 and 30 weddings each year, creating heirloom-quality images that couples treasure for a lifetime. They truly understand how important your wedding day is and are dedicated to preserving every special moment, big or small. Amy handles enquiries with warmth and responsiveness, ensuring a smooth, reassuring experience from start to finish.
My most memorable wedding is perhaps one held at The City Rooms Leicester, the couple had opted for traditional asian drummers for the after party, during the day the atmosphere was very relaxed but once the drums started thundering everyone went mad on the dancefloor.
Chilled out, authentic, emotional, truthful, lively
We both work as a team to help our clients have the wedding day they've always dreamed of - we recently launched our Wedding Hub, an inspirational place for couples to find planning advice, how-to guides, supplier lists, free printables and much more. Check it out on our website and don't forget to subscribe!
Take some time to read the articles over on the Wedding Hub - there really is a wealth of information on planning your dream wedding
Including loved ones who can't be there with candles or having a place set for them at a table.
The first contact you have with JA Photo Studio will be when you enquire - our studio manager Amy handles all enquiries personally, making sure you have all of the information you need to start your journey with us. You'll be sent our latest wedding brochure and also invited to a free consultation to have a chat about your plans. You'll also receive your wedding welcome pack, filled with treats to help you both celebrate!
Once you've decided we're the photographers for you (yay!) you'll be sent your welcome guide, wedding questionnaire and a link to pay your booking fee. Once you've also signed your digital contract, you've officially booked your wedding photographers!! You'll hear from us periodically in the run up to your big day and also you'll be able to keep in contact with us through WhatsApp.
Next comes the day itself - Jay will arrive at your venue dressed as a guest, all the better for blending in and not being noticed... we find it's the best way for us to capture natural, unstaged moments, just you and your guests celebrating your marriage and enjoying yourselves.
Once your special day is over, we'll stay in contact and get to work on editing your gallery - once all of your images have been expertly colour graded and flawlessly edited, you'll be invited back to the studio to view your photos. Your gallery will also be uploaded to our website, so you can download, share, print and even send the link to all of your friends and family. If you've chosen any prints, keepsakes or albums, we'll get those ordered for you and delivered free of charge direct to your home.
Once it's finally time to say goodbye (...sob) we'll ask for a little feedback - it helps other amazing couples find us so we can make their dreams come true. That's it!
Even though we're primarily documentary, photo-journalistic photographers, most of our couples want at least one formal portrait for the mantlepiece. If you're worried about posing, talk to us - we want you to feel 100% comfortable on your special day
