Hi, I'm Laura 👋
Friendly
Relaxed
funny (ish!)
I'm all about the real moments - the nervous excitement of bridal prep, the wobbling voices & "I must not cry on camera" faces of the ceremony & speeches, & the crazy dance floor action. I also love to capture all the little details that make your wedding, yours. And of course I want to spend some time with just the two of you, creating some beautiful, relaxed portraits. Loves: good tea, the beach, donuts, flowers. Quotes too much from Friends.

Laura Calderwood Photography Full Description
For me wedding photography is all about the story, and every story is unique. Most of my wedding photos are natural and unposed, I’m simply there to document your wedding day as it happens. Your family photos will need a little more input from me, but I try to keep these to a minimum whilst making sure we cover the important people. I’ll also take the two off you off for a little while to create some beautiful shots of the two of you together. Don’t worry, this is totally relaxed! We’ll just go for a wander, stopping here and there for some photographs. I’ll give you some guidance on where and how to stand, but I mostly want to capture you interacting together. And of course I love the details – flowers (ALWAYS flowers!), dress, shoes, cake – all the personal little touches that you’ve spent months organising!

The perfect photographer!

We cannot recommend Laura enough, she really was the perfect choice for us. She captured our day and all of our special moments at our Tithe Barn wedding in June 2023 so beautifully. Laura was so friendly and so professional in the lead up and throughout our entire wedding. The photos from both our engagement shoot and wedding day turned out amazing! We've had so many comments on how beautiful the photos are. The presentation of our photos on a memory stick in a lovely gift box was such a nice surprise too. We could not have asked for a more talented photographer!

The best wedding photos!

We are so glad we chose Laura as our wedding photographer. Right from our first meeting on zoom with her, she was so focussed on it being what we wanted but also giving amazing professional advice. She was easily contactable throughout the process, answering any questions we had quickly. On our wedding day she was a pleasure to have around and the photos she took captured our day perfectly. We would absolutely recommend Laura to anyone needing a photographer! We will treasure our photographs which perfectly captured the best day of our lives.

Laura was great!

Laura was a brilliant wedding photographer at our wedding in summer 2023. She is very communicative, organised and clear about what details we need to provide. On top of this she takes fantastic photos and we are extremely pleased with our wedding album, which she also curated for us. Thanks Laura.

Wedding Photography

We chose Laura to be our wedding photographer due to the lovely natural shots she takes and the use of natural light. She really makes you feel at ease in front of the camera. I said to her it was like having a friend with me throughout the day. We also had our cocker spaniel at our wedding, Laura did an amazing job capturing him. As for the end results, we were absolutely thrilled with each and every photo, typically being an English summer wedding we had rain but you can't even tell in the photos! Laura captured the day beautifully from start to finish.

Amazing!

Laura did a fantastic job as our wedding photographer. She made it so easy and relaxed and managed to capture so many amazing memories for us. Laura kept in contact with us over the 2yr of planning, if I ever dropped her a message with a query she would always reply. After the wedding we received a beautiful little gift box with a card, some printed photos and a special USB stick with all our photos. We are trying to choose from so many amazing pictures that we want to put in our album that we also got included in our package, so we am looking forward to receiving that once we have chosen which we’d like to put in it! We would definitely recommend Laura as a photographer X

Laura Made Our Day!

We can't thank Laura enough for our wonderful photos - she captured moments throughout the day without me even noticing she was there. The candid nature of them is exactly why we chose her for our wedding. The group shots and 'traditional' photos were also expertly co-ordinated - she's very hands-on and great with the kids! I knew her work from when she photographed my sister's wedding, so I was already confident with the results, but Laura put us all completely at ease, and made the day seem effortless. Hire her immediately if you can!

Great photographer - thank you

Laura photographed our wedding in July 2023 and she was amazing! On the day the whole process was so smooth - she was great at gathering the right people for the formal photos, but also managing to capture so many pictures without us even noticing she was there! She sent us a (large) preview of our photos so quickly after the wedding, which we weren't expecting so soon and was a nice surprise. All the photos are great, she's captured so many nice moments and a lovely mix of formal and candid. I would definitely recommend Laura!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Relaxed, fun, natural, elegant, timeless

What about your business are you most proud of?

All of it! I still can't believe that I get to call this work!

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

I love natural wedding photos taken throughout the day so I don't think there is a No.1 photo. Plus every wedding is so different. Although I do always make sure to get a shot of you both standing side-by-side, looking at the camera with a huge grin - I call it the mantlepiece shot and it's mostly for your mums and grannies!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Rain on your wedding day is always a possibility, no matter the time of year. My advice is to plan for it, but don’t worry about it! Bring some wellies and a white umbrella on the day as a back up – it’s always better to have them and not need them than to be stuck with no options!
